Top Law Schools

Actually posting this for my girlfriend. She is trying to decide whether or not to get her masters because she qualified for a lot of scholarship money so it would be cheap to do.

Stats:
Bachelors Finance from University of Cincinnati
GPA - 3.8
LSAT - 169 (second time)

ECs:
VP of UC Mock Trial for 3 years. Nationally ranked attorney and witness multiple times over.
Extensive experience working for multiple attorneys and firms around Cincinnati for years.

The questions I have are:
1. Would her chances at T14 improve with a masters in finance?
2. How applicable would a masters be if she wanted to get into M&A and Corporate Law?
3. What are her chances currently, realistically, at a T14 school?

She's a beautiful, tall, blonde white woman. I don't know if that helps or hurts.

Appreciate any input and thanks for taking the time!

MS in finance may negligibly help if it got you a good corporate job pre law school, which big law seems to like. I wouldnt get it just to get it. It would make more sense for her to get the best finance job possible w/the b.a. and work for a couple of years and then go to law school. You would get inherently the same benefit and not waste time/money.

chances at a T14 right now are pretty strong. Probably could get some decent scholarship money at Duke/Cornell/Northwestern, and bites from UVA, Penn, Michigan, and NYU, but it will be prohibitively expensive.

MS in Fin would be a negligible to light soft, depending on where she earned it, and whether it fit into a schema of what she wanted to do in law. It's almost certainly not worth it. To give you an idea, one more point on the test - a 170 - would prove far more beneficial to her application.

Is your GF employed in finance? Work experience would help across the board.

Masters won't really matter, she shouldn't do it unless she's planning to put it to use. Would be a waste of time and money.

She should get a solid hot chick bump at OCI

Cool brag bro, good for you
