I think it's hard to discern because the type of kids going to t25 law schools predominately go to bigger/higher prestige undergrads. But the simple fact is that in your high end law/MBA programs you're not going to find a bunch of directional school grads.


You will find plenty of people from state flagship public universities at M7 MBA programs and the top 10 law schools. You will find more kids from the highly selective Top 20 private schools. Is that because the kids are smarter or is it the prestige of their institution? Likely, a bit of both.

I agree. Obviously the most useful part of this for regular students looking to a tier one grad school path is the value of bigger flagship public universities, IMO. With some exceptions, good performance at many/most will be a reliable platform for whatever is next. But I still often hear "just get a degree it doesn't matter" advice given to people in this boat a lot.
