[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I used to work at a law school in admissions and lots of very inaccurate info on this thread. Law schools do value work experience, most applicants are not going to be straight from undergrad.[/b] Full pay can definitely help, just like it does with undergrad. There are tons of scholarships available overall; not necessarily at the very top schools as they value need and not merit but schools that are not Yale/Harvard/Stanford do have full tuition available for a select few who fit their criteria for top scores/grades/special kind of law. Outside the top 14, plenty of merit aid available. [/quote] This. The law schools know that the more mature the student is, the better the law school outcome. Even when I attended a T1,2 or 3, most of the students had taken at least a year off. Harvard says that 80% of the incoming class have taken off 1 or more years before applying. This is true also of business schools[/quote]
