[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to both of these schools. Vandy undergrad and Gtown Law. Then BigLaw. I disagree that it doesn’t matter where you go to undergrad. Your undergrad shapes you as a person in ways that law school cannot. I’d choose advise my kid to choose Northwestern for the ranking, the culture, the academic and intellectual rigor. My DS is at a school that does quarters— it is maybe a little more intense but he finds it suits him because there is no time to procrastinate and get too far behind. Law school is not for sure. She shouldn’t choose second best bc of some plans to do law school later. [/quote]

If op is correct about northwestern having more grade deflation, northwestern is not a good choice.

I say this as someone who applied to law school from a place the prided itself on grade deflation. It hurt me, law school application wise. I wound up going to a top fourteen and I think I could have had a shot at a top five if I’d gone to a place with less grade deflation. My major had more grade deflation than other majors at my school, which is even worse[/quote]
