[quote=Anonymous]If you care deeply about the rankings (and I don't know why you would), Spivey Consulting is the go-to authority for information. His speculation is that some of the changes USNWR made to this year's formula produced such radically different rankings that they had to delay their release until they could further tweak the formula to find a metric that would help put them back to result closer to past years (Spivey speculates it has something to do with employment after 2 years) If US News is reverse engineering its formula to get the rankings to come out the way they want (and evidence strongly suggests they are), it certainly underscores how useless these rankings really are Also congrats to UVA and Notre Dame for leaning into their Federalist Society chapters, with the resultant very high proportion of students getting clerkships with conservative federal judges and boosting their rankings via that metric. Can the ASSOL at George Mason be far behind? [/quote]
