Would Biglaw view negatively someone who transferred after completing 2L?
Would biglaw view negatively someone who transferred to T14 after completing 2L at another law school (T50)? So would be attending law school for 4 years. Money is not a concern. What if the 1L's GPA is like a shit but 2L's GPA is top 20%?

Wouldn't that require giving up a year of credits from your original school?

You were a bad student at a mediocre school during 1L? Why would a large firm take you seriously? Because you got better grades during 2L, which a lot of people do?
Why would a T14 even accept you in the first place?
