An age 50-something lurker on a dead gay message board whose first and only post in eight years is accidentally a thread. A shameful, yet awesome lurker. As Sab says, none of the rankings except the overall one matter at all. In your case, I'll go one step further and say that the overall ranking may not matter much either. If you can't live without a JD for whatever godforsaken reason, go to the highest ranked school that lets you in for free. Graduating at 55-60 with student loans and then not getting hired is a disaster much worse than a run of the mill massive bill is at 30, and dying while owing money is not nearly the worst thing that could happen; the lender can and will easily get your Social Security garnished and then you get to be a 70 year old eating cat food. The chaser is that I would be very wary at best of anything anyone who isn't directly responsible for hiring people says about job prospects for a newly minted 60 year old lawyer. Are your friends able to guarantee you a job? Are you the type of person capable of opening a solo practice while knowing nothing about what you're doing for the first couple of years? If neither of these things are true please don't go to law school.
