[quote=Anonymous]It is not necessary to attend and graduate from a Top 14 law school in order to be a successful attorney. The two most important questions regarding which law school to attend is COA/affordability and geographic preference for one's career. For those who want to live & work in a major US city after law school, then graduating from a Top 14 law school is important for both serious consideration by the nation's most elite law firms and for geographic mobility among major US cities. For those who are not targeting biglaw law firms or practicing in a major US city in a large law firm, then local or state public flagship law schools are fine due to location and to affordability/low cost of attendance. Attending a Top 14 law school often requires the student to assume a significant amount of student loan debt which almost necessitates employment in biglaw for several years in order to pay off the substantial student loan debt.
