The only schools on that list you should even be considering are USC/UCLA, and that's only if you have a substantial (>50%) scholarship and would be happy settling for something other than entertainment law (because if you don't have entertainment connections right now, at this very moment, before you start law school, it's not gonna happen for you so deal with it).

In unrelated news, I got a 33% raise at my clerkship today, and a shitload more work for this semester. I hadn't met two of the three partners, and after I did they both popped into the third partner's office where I was and went "well this is great, I have a shitload of stuff for you" verbatim, like 2 minutes after each other.

Enigma89 posted:Yeah I knew I would get a bunch of poo poo. We will see in a few weeks what I end up getting. I'll get the score I need. Anything other than graduating at the top of your class at Harvard, Yale, and Stanford will get you poo poo from somebody for going to law school. EDIT: I mean to say "or," not "and," but I like the idea of jaded lawyers demanding you graduate from all three to succeed.

As for the other schools. I have heard really good things about LLS/Pepperdine/UC Hastings. I don't see why I wouldn't want to get in there.

So I guess my question for you is, if a you know a celebrity and a guy who went to a much higher ranked school than you knew the same celebrity, and you both were offering to represent the celebrity at the same price, why wouldn't said celebrity pick the dude who went to Harvard/Yale/Stanford/UCLA/USC and had those alumni connections when compared to you at, say, USD or Pepperdine? I mean unless you want to pull a Deuce Bigalow and take all the clients nobody wants while simultaneously undercutting everyone else's rates

Enigma89 posted:I do have connections and money isn't a problem. Out of curiosity, if you have both of these, why are you even going to law school? Just go join up with one of the agencies, and go from there. Entertainment law is, for the most part, boring bullshit with particularly flaky clients.

Being "deeply interested in the law" is one of those bullshit reasons to go to law school that fills crap like admissions brochures but has nothing to do with law school. Do you like sitting around with 100 other smug, clueless assholes who feel like you should care why they think that the concept of property as a "bundle of sticks" of various rights is bullshit? IF SO, YOU'LL LOVE LAW SCHOOL!

This could be you if you have the elite academic credentials to get into a top 100 law school the national law journal posted:When Dina Allam graduated last spring from Ohio State University with a joint law and master of business administration degree, she thought the combination would catch the eye of employers who could appreciate a mix of analytical skills and business know-how.

It is the biggest crock of poo poo but stupid people like me will fall for it and gently caress themselves out of $150,000 and a future. I mean, you're not allowed to sell tylenol by telling people it will cure cancer, why is the other lie legal?

Also, I'm watching The Dark Knight and realized what bothered me about the ending: HArvey Dent allegedly went to law school and was a practicing lawyer, and still started raving madly that "it's about what's fair!" But law school kills any part of you that actually thought the world was fair so that destroyed my ability to suspend my disbelief gently caress law school

Hey would a 3.8GPA and 90 percentile LSAT have a shot at a T13 school? I know literally nothing about US law schools other than that there's way too many of them to know or care about so

That's not good, but I suppose its possible.

No it's an approximation because I can't remember the particular number and "90th percentile" is easier to type than "good but not great I dunno I can't remember"

I know literally nothing about US law schools other than that there's way too many of them to know or care about so https://www.lawschoolnumbers.com look at various schools and look at their graphs from the 09-10 admission cycle. At Cornell and Georgetown (Ranked 13 and 14, respectively), unless you're URM, you're not getting in with a 163(which is the 90th percentile, if I recall). Edit: Made this easier: Here is a search for pseudo-you (or your friend, as I see after replying) http://search.lawschoolnumbers.com/users/jd/?a=su&lsat2=164&lsatR=true&lsat1=162&lgpa1=3.74&lgpa2=3.87&urm=Excluded&workingCycle=0910 This is a search for people with an LSAT between 162 and 164 whose GPA was somewhere between 3.74 and 3.87 (it was a slider, so it's imprecise) , who are not some underrepresented minority. Click on these people, see that the odds of a T14 admission are 0, and then tell your friend not to go to law school. Lilosh fucked around with this message at 05:48 on Sep 8, 2010 |

At this time, I don't even have the truck, so we're ordering fresh, local, 100% vertically integrated from the corn field to the comal tortillas. Salsa right now include my handmade basic tomato salsa and salsa verde. Still working out the kinks in the hab sauce, El Yucateco is there for now.
