Top Law Schools

I was told mid-julyish---just wondering if anyone got theirs yet

Georgetown has ours!!!

Nope. Really wish they would drop so I can start pricing books.

Not yet. I'm really hoping to soon, though!

We received ours at the end of June.

Nothing yet...with my luck, it will arrive and sit at the post office while I'm out of town for a week. Awesome.

Yup! Torts, Property, LW and Contracts (if memory serves).

By the way, just got it this past week in the mail.

Nada until orientation in August

At my T-4 (who everyone hates on for inefficiency and such) we have received our schedules and book lists.

Got mine July 1.

Done by 3pm Mon-Thurs, off on Friday.

Ill take that one

UConn gave us ours. I think in the middle of June?

I wish. I hear the tax book costs somewhere around $200 alone, and I doubt I'll have much money left by the end of July lol

Villanova has made them available to us.

I'm suppose to be getting mind mid july too. i have yet to see it

>looks at calendar and spots its mid july...frowns<

Umm, if I get anything even remotely close to that, I'll be lighting off fireworks I'll be so excited.

$200? Ridiculous.

I am praying they don't change my schedule between now and the first day of class. I lucked out. Id rather cram in classes over 4 days than 5 even if it means more reading Sunday-Weds.

I don't have class on Fridays. Super pumped about this!

They don't mail ours (T14) until early August. Kind of annoying. I'm also hoping for no Friday classes.

That sounds fantastic

Got mine, on Amazon now having a heart attack.

I'm figuring around $1600 on books. ugh

FTR, we don't get our schedules or book list until orientation. Yeah, it's annoying, I know.

This post is making ME have a heart attack. What school is this? Is this how much books really cost?

My casebook and required books alone were $980. I bought LEEWS (another couple hundred) and then the specific hornbooks, EE's (like the glannon for civ pro), supplementals etc recommended throughout TLS. I didn't buy a hornbook for each class or anything like that just relied on the wisdom of folks here in the top percentage of their classes for which ones they felt made a difference.

This is the most I have ever spent on books.

A good example of items in my amazon cart:

I've got a lot more than that but you kinda get the picture. Where I could I am buying used and where the edition is 2010 I'm hosed and had to buy new at bad sticker prices.
