2.7 GPA and 165 LSAT, looking for Con Law/Legal Theory schools...

[dashrashi]

I would wager that USNews "really thinks" Penn is a T6. Your pronouncements irritate the *&^% out of me, yknow?

And no one is disputing that law professors are often lawyers; however, in many cases, while not wrong to simply say "lawyers," to say "law professors" would be more precise and hence more desirable.

Dumbass.

while i dont really know about the law degree, you should look at american for their phd program in justice, law, and society if youre interested in legal theory.

they have a brilliant faculty and they focus on legal theory or justice and public policy. im not sure if you could do a dual degree with the phd, but i know you can do it with a masters and phd. a 166 should get you in there and its a good school.

Thanks for the help guys. I had a bad feeling that most of the con law/theory schools were T14, however I wasn't sure. I'll definitely check out American University.

if you have any questions about american and dc lemme know. im getting my masters there for american politics. i was a justice law and society student, but i switched after one semester. wasnt really for me.

if youre into legal theory, its a perfect degree. i know someone who is getting the dual degree as well.

I think that a 165 and a 2.7 will be hard to get into AU with. Worth a chance, but it'll be a tough sell. Also, don't count your chickens before they hatch. As "easy" as you think getting a 165 is, you just don't know until you know.

I recommend Cardozo and American for their faculty; I can't vouch for their curricula.

ETA: fwiw, I like at least three members of the conlaw faculty at Brooklyn.

You win the interwebs!!! 

My creative side imagines:

A normal child who'll grow up to go to a T20 one day: Oooooh look that cloud looks like a bunny!

Little Lindbergh: Actually cumulus clouds statistically take the shape of foilage and fruit bearing trees, essentially all trees except tree ferns and gymnosperms. In particular of the variety found mostly along the cusp of the Pacific Rim.

ANCWGUTGTATOD: *&^%. Still looks like a bunny to me.

You are always so unpleasant, and when did you ever have anything significant to contribute?

I used to be helpful, but engaging with racists and bigots on substantive issues has made me irritable in my old age. It's true; you can check my posts.

Do you have a question? I could probably try to answer it. That would make me more helpful.
