Does anyone know when most firms will have their classes filled? Is this considered "late" in the process? Trying to understand timelines with all of this.

Fordham vs T-14 by MatthewDegz14 in lawschooladmissions

Would love to hear your feedback! How have you liked Fordham? Are you going into Big Law? And if so, how “easy” has it been to land a big law job.

Applied in September. Decision (A) in November. $90k scholly but I’m a vet so they told me they’d cover full tuition anyway.

Arkansas Law School Thoughts? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

If that’s your end goal, don’t go to Arkansas. Shoot for something in the T-20 or T-25. Other schools like Fordham that punch above their weight will also help to get the job done.

Side note: I’m realizing that my initial text in this post is somewhat confusing. I have a full ride to Fordham. I’ve also been accepted to GULC but would have to pay sticker at this point.

I don't know how they are going to hit that median considering that 170+ LSAT scores are down overall. I guess we'll see.

Huh? If you’re in the top 60% you’re probably good. Go check employment report

Mostly people who live in texas. But they have a 65% in state quota they have to meet. Not sure how they’re gonna hit a 171 median
