Yale vs. Stanford Employment Prospects

Post by Anonymous User » Fri Jun 18, 2010 1:27 am

So I recently turned down Yale for Stanford, but (prompted by the straight-passing at YLS thread) now I'm wondering whether I've screwed myself in the event that I get straight passes at Stanford. It sounds like most people agree that straight-passing at Yale should still enable you to get a decent job (and their COAP makes it so that if you don't get a legal job you can get any job and not be consumed by debt). How about straight-passing at Stanford? Is there a notable difference between how employers view Yale vs. Stanford since Yale has the benefit of being #1? Thanks in advance for any info.
