Are winter and summer programs worth going...? Forum

[Airknight]

Are winter and summer programs worth going to make one's resume MORE impressive before going to JD? I am at the moment not studying in the US, so I thought perhaps going to a US law school sponsored program will make it look like I am very interested in American law and stuff. Also, if I am interested in knowledge gain, is one of these summer schools worth it? I want to know as much law so as to be as prepared as possible. I like London and HK, so location matters.

• Duke has two programs: (1) Geneva and (2) HK.
  Cornell has one program: in Paris.
  Chicago has a Law & Economics summer program.
  GW has an IP program in Munich.
  LSE has Law summer program.
  Gtown has a summer program in London.
  Oxlahoma University has an Oxford summer program.

What are your opinions?
