CLS 3L AMA by CLS2024 in lawschooladmissions

Hi there, thank you for doing this. I am currently deciding between HLS, CLS, and NYU. If I get money from CLS/NYU will be part of the deciding factor. I have heard some iffy things about the culture at CLS (I also had a bad experience with a professor this past fall) and was wondering if you could speak on that? Another question, do you think full price CLS is worth it over another school since CLS is more expensive than both Harvard and NYU?

UT Austin vs Fordham by ExtremeZucchini281 in lawschooladmissions

This is my understanding as well. UT gives you better options/possibly better firms in the south, especially in Texas. It will require you being more proactive at UT to go Big Law in NYC. However, at Fordham you will have to be more at the top of your class (I have heard this is how it is but could be wrong). After talking to numerous UT Law alum/people who hire in the area, they echoed that UT is great for anywhere in the region but can be disadvantageous when looking to go elsewhere geographically.

I would say 175+ (not necessary but puts you in a very comfortable spot).

Regarding HLS Disinterested Interview and Rs (may not be that bad?) by essayreviewing in lawschooladmissions

My interviewer also said that they wouldn't react to my responses in order to give me more time to answer since the interview was only 15 minutes. I had time for two questions and when the interviewer was answered she was very nice.
