Quote from: CoxlessPair on April 24, 2007, 05:50:46 PMFor whatever the reason, the lower the schools is ranked, the more exacting the curve. Here at Illinois, it's a 3.2/3.3 curve. At most T3/T4s, it's in the 2.7 range. I don't really get it, esp. when you only need 3.25 to graduate "cum laude" from here. Honors for the top 50% of the class? Honestly? our curve at ualr is a 2.70. 3.25 for honors, 3.50 for high honors.i would be happy to just have them fling my jd at me from a moving car

I had to go through that THREE times until I was finally able to record the jingle. The first two times, my dad came in at the very end and asked me to help him with something. Each time!This is going to be my new ring-tone. I'm also showing up to ASW next year with my Cooley-gear! Only, I hope it's not going to be at Cooley.Also, I liked that one student's (ahem) boldly-unique name."Ebonee Avery". hehehe.I feel I've been infected, somehow.

This is why Cooley is the ultimate tagline for any and all law school related jokes: 1. roughly 50% bar passage rate for first-time takers2. a total attrition rate that is higher than my combined SAT's3. career prospects that are nonexistent for half of a graduating class (and if you're one of the lucky ones, congrats on that 50K/yr)4. they really do accept anyone5. their personal rankings are absolutely hilarious, sometimes i grab a bag of popcorn and just read what they say about themselves6. i drive by one of their campuses everyday, and from the appearance of the students it looks like an Alcoholics Anonymous, Weight Watchers, and Bingo convention all rolled into one7. there are so many more, but i will sign off by simply saying that law schools like Cooley taking away from the prestige often associated with the practice of law; they make it something for everyone when, in reality, it is not and their students (including those who pay first-year tuition then drop-out, as well as those who graduate with 100k in debt only to miraculously find a job paying 50k/year) are the evidence for that.
