Law School Discussion

1) He never stated he scratched out CUNY.
2) You assume too much. There are reasons to go to CUNY that have noting to do with ranking.
3) You the one that brought up no debt. That's a good reason.
4) Tax payers bail you out?- that explains a lot.
5) Tax payers? what?
6) Ah tea party?
7) Go Ron Paul 2012
8 ) I know this is a douch.y way to do this.
9) Idc
10) Tax payers? What?

lol great. My hoes are chaste as a Romney.  Is that why they never bring me any money?  Are they just making jobs for other hoes?

OP- if you are still bothering to read this thread: steve's first question is right.  What are your numbers?  When did you apply? If we're talking 145/2.5 you might be in trouble.

Not hearing back by 5 April isn't necessarily the kiss of death. Not hearing back by 30 May, even to be rejected or waitlisted, now that's not good.  I have read a few articles lately that claim this cycle is much smaller that pre 2011 cycles, based on LSAT turn out and applications submitted.  That means admissions offices may need to change up some of their policies- admit people with lower scores than they used to or shrink class size or make huge waitlists, etc.   

Regardless, Good luck.

I suspect you got in somewhere since you haven't been back freaking.   

I don't know the VT market. Maine is a school I personally like. Do they have a market in VT? Idk. UConn probably does in all of NE, but again VT is small, Idk. Addressing the residency issue: there is a level in between in-state and out-of-state in New England.  You may not need in-state residency to save substantially on tuition.  I was thinking because of that most VT (and NH) attorneys go to ME or CT. 

I'm not directly trying to discourage you from VLS, like some others.  VLS may be a force in VT, I'm actually curious about that. Just saying the market in VT is tiny and consequently influenced by other NE states.  Influenced more than a very expensive private school sat in the middle of nowhere rather than an urban setting where it could affect influence? Idk.

My buddy went there not caring about any of that because he knew he wanted to practice in the South East, if all their alums think that way and are neither from VT or stay, then....

I don't really know the VT market or VLS, just speculating trying to figure out the relative situation.  Interesting for me, very important for you.  Good luck.

Villaraigosa went to People's?  That's awesome.  I noticed he never passed the bar . Raises a question: has anyone from People's passed the bar and is practicing?

Do CBE students seem more long winded and formal than ABA students?

I'm not knocking non-ABA schools, btw. I have met successful non-ABA grads. Depends on the school and the region, just like with ABA  schools.

The topic was pretty generalized to begin with, have we really strayed that far?
