Quink thought about rankings

Post by corporatelaw87 » Thu Mar 11, 2010 8:28 pm

I was curious why does US News include PT stats in with the rankings when they in fact rank PT programs separately?

PT students receive the same JD as everyone else, so their numerical quality should be factored into the school's numbers. Law schools typically admit PT students with good softs and WE but weaker numbers, because they used to not count toward their ranking.
