Fordham/BC/BU --> Northwestern: Do it?

Hi all,

So today I was admitted to NU Law as a transfer student.
At my 1L school, I finished within the top 1/3, and attended with a modest scholarship. I'm striving for biglaw at the moment, and wouldn't mind any of CHI/NYC/Boston. I am totally OK with giving up the scholarship to pay sticker at NU. In light of all these things, would it be worth it to go, or should I stay? I'm heavily leaning towards going, btw, but I'd like to hear what others think.

To add something more substantive: I think you should go. Top 1/3 is pretty much necessary but not sufficient to get big law from Fordham/BC/BU, so I think you could really benefit from the transfer. If you were more like top 10%, I'd think it could more easily go either way. Congrats on getting NU.
