I realize the OT doesn't usually care for law school threads but I thought I would put this out there anyway. The most recent employment figures for 2013 law grads just came out. They are interesting. Check out, for instance, the list of law schools with the highest unemployment rates.

Apparently you didn't, since you went ahead and made it anyway...This topic is so fricking old on this site

I'm not suprised at the louisiana law schools since the Louisiana Bar Exam has the toughest bar passage rate in the nation and Southern has some of the most lax admission standards in the country. Loyola New Orleans, oh how the mediocre have fallen

These things are pointless. Most people considering law school don't give a shite about how well the top schools do and how shitty the worst schools do.

Loyola & Southern grads having trouble finding jobs? Shocking!

Not a good metric of a quality law school. I judge a law school based on the legal writing program, the moot court program, the tuition costs, and the overall satisfaction at the school as rated by law students. Any other metrics are not accurate and shouldn't be looked at.

The better question is how many billable hours have been spent on TD just with this thread?

The truth is leaking out and enrollment is dropping. Good luck to anyone still considering law school.

For the record, I've always had a slight interest in law school but never thought it was a practical career choice with amount of income vs. debt ratio unless you were going IVY league or another prestigious school.
What I never understood though was the point of people going into law school without a central focus on specializing in one particular area (as much as you can) and focusing whatever electives you have to that end.
For instance, if I was going into law school right now I'd specialize in tax law, IP law or some other niche that a large portion never specializes in.
That's the only way I can see you getting a return besides selling out and ambulance chasing or opening up your own shop in a small-medium size town.
