secondary journals
Do their relative rankings matter whatsoever?

Re: secondary journals
They don't really. Secondary journal rankings are purely internal to your school; no one outside knows, or cares.
If you're not on LR, go with the secondary that either interests you the most, or has the least amount of work (if you can't ask upperclassmen about amt. of work, look at how often a given journal publishes--less often = less work).
One caveat: don't pick a secondary journal with a stupid name like Journal of International Critical Feminist Perspectives.

Re: secondary journals
What about secondary journals that actually have an established reader base and probably serve a larger group than law review?
We have two journals at our school: Law review and an ABA-sponsored journal. It's professionally edited after we get done with it, and has one of the largest reading subscriptions in the US. That count for anything?

It perhaps should. But it doesn't.

Re: secondary journals
I don't know if it counts for shit, but I do know there are a handful of specialty journals that are highly esteemed in their niche. Then again, unless you A) happen to have a real interest in that niche, and B) interview with someone who practices in that niche, and C) is looking to hire someone for that specific practice, it probably doesn't mean shitScotusnerd wrote:What about secondary journals that actually have an established reader base and probably serve a larger group than law review?
