[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yup, GPA and LSAT. Go to the best law school you are accepted into if you want to get a job.[/quote] Disagree with this advice. I turned down better schools for a T50 school that offered me a substantial scholarship. I graduated law school debt free. I graduated top 10% and was on the law review board and had many offers from top tier firms. I ended up hating big law and it was easy to leave after 5 years because I had no debt and substantial savings. YMMV. Don't listen to absolutist advice, though. [/quote] I [b]was in law school during the 2008 downturn and the bottom 2/3 of Georgetown's class graduated without a legal job. I still have many friends who never found a job as a lawyer. It was even worse outside the T14. In good times the T50 may be fine, but when the legal market contracts, your options will be more limited the further down the tiers you go.[/quote][/b] +1[/quote]
