Top Law Schools

Anyone know about best job opportunities in Georgia based on the following:

I'm >10% with extra curricular stuff, prior work experience, federal level internship this summer, and a decent scholarship. Accepted at UGA and GSU, but I don't know if moving is the right thing, since I can't quantify OCI prospects, or future class rank. Also, I have a good shot for law review at my old school, but that is unknown so far. I'm undecided on career path, but Big Law would be welcome of course.

Give me something real.

Just from a quick lawschooltransparency search it doesn't look like it would be worth it to transfer. I mean the employment prospects are actually worse for Georgia State, and only slightly better for UGA. You're top 10% with a shot at LR? I say stay put. Also definitely not worth losing your scholarship for IMO.

Edit: Maybe just use the transfers as bait to try and increase your current scholarship.

Also, $ would basically wash, since GSU and UGA are cheap.

Ah fair enough. Can't say I've done much research on any of these schools TBH. Just basing what I said off employment data.

If price will be roughly equal, definitely transfer to UGA. Your biglaw/fedclerk prospects will increase and UGA's OCI will be larger/better than Mercer's.

Given the options I assume you have GA ties? I also thought UGA requires full 1L grades before extending acceptances.
