[quote=Anonymous]Hi I am a lawyer that did not go to top 14. I have two kids going to law school next year. One to a top 14. Other to a top 4 or top 6 depending on the ranking. So the absolute most important thing in addition to GPA and LSAT is a year (two is better). At the top law schools, 70 plus percent take time off and work. The game has come down to employment and proof of concept with a job post undergrad seems to be that proof. On Reddit for law school admissions, so many kids posted their results and the ones with work experience seemed to fare much better. Basically, some kids with high GPAs and LSATs were getting shut out if they were applying from undergraduate. They are referred to as 'KJD"--straight through from Kindergarten to Law School. In my era, 30 years ago, it was reversed--most went "KJD" but now it has changed. [/quote]
