[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Princeton for sure unless they’ve decided on doing law school.[/quote]

I [b]guess you’re basing that on perceived grade inflation/deflation[/b]  but Yale Law has a weird reputation:  highly selective and quite small; without equal when it comes to minting law clerks and future law professors; and indifferent to bad when it comes to teaching its students practical legal skills.  Partners at major law firms will regularly tell you graduates of Georgetown or American typically make better associates than Yale graduates.

Princeton students have no trouble getting into law school, and there are any number of law schools besides YLS that may serve them just as well, if not better, if they aspire to become practicing lawyers.[/quote]
No. In my view, Princeton quality dominates Yale’s except pre-law.[/quote]

But pre-law is not a major, and Princeton sends just as many to the top law schools. Just in our friend group (of Princeton grads), we have multiple Yale law, Harvard law, and Columbia law.

But yes GPA matters to law school admissions which is why the PP mentioned perceived grade inflation/deflation. [/quote]
