Cooley Grad Answering Questions

Post by cooleygrad » Fri Oct 02, 2015 9:32 pm

Honestly, I saw Cooley people on here all day/everyday at school. Half were typing they went to Harvard (sad really)
But if you want HONEST answers. Ask away.

And just for the lulz lets see if ANY Cooley people are willing to use their 5000post accounts (and not alts) to answer honestly that they attend. (me bets zero)

I meant to ask me questions about COOLEY, but ok. Yeah I'll answer the buried lead question in that. Bar Exam was easy, its why 90% of UOM pass it first time. But I won't deny my classmates have a 40ish percent pass rate, and in all reality that percent goes down to probably half that for the part time "working" students.

I'm doing document review for $22 an hour. I had the same job while in bar prep but it only paid $18 an hour until I passed it.

But asking this type of question is lazy. In theory a Harvard grad could have a horrible day or a Taft Grad somehow get lucky as shit. I'm not saying statistics don't matter, but I'm one random guy, asking one random guy could easily be that off person.

Any questions on COOLEY folks?

Do you regret going to Cooley? Your apprehension to answer post-grad employment questions leads me to believe you do.
I updated it while you were posting. And the link between those two is weak at best. I refer you to my updated post.

I somewhat remember a troll thread from a year or two ago that had this premise.

They had to create an entire building across the street 3 stories high to make into the library, so its pretty big.

What were your classmates like? What were their expectations for their post-Cooley lives?

Every single one says (followed by "Prof say and so told me" of course) that
1. No one EVER asks where you attended once you graduate
2. That they expect to get offers from firms that they intern at
3. The majority plan to go solo, and/or team up with others to start their own firms

And 100% of them expect to pass the bar exam the first time they sit it, although less than 50% pass it even after multiple attempts at it have been used.

Of course you see fun stuff like THIS where the former Profs cant even find work and end up working for their former students (no shit check it out)

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
