# 85 Illinois Institute of Technology, #59 Pepperdine, #37 U of Illinois, #65 Georgia State are all ranked higher than #113 Gonzaga, #95 San Diego, #88 South Carolina are you kidding me? This make no sense to me at all.
.

Pepperdine is actually a good school. Don't know if it's that much better than Gonzaga though. Those others? Meh.

It's such a bullshite ranking especially for people who really need lawyers. I know several lawyers that went to schools on the near the bottom of the list that run rings around guys that went to higher ranked schools and vice versa.

I always found that the most effective attorneys in the real world situations were guys that graduated near the bottom 1/3 of their law school class.

All the Ivy League stuff just means you have connections in high places. Remember, Obama was a Harvard trained lawyer and he NEVER saw the inside of the courtroom .

The best attorney I ever dealt with graduated from Loyola, in New Orleans doing the night school route and graduated near the bottom of his class. He routinely ran rings around guys that graduated from places like Columbia and Cornell as well as Harvard

How could this be leaked? These college lists are sort of BS because it’s always the same schools and they don’t change that much. The top 20 schools will always be the top 20 schools

Eh -- a lot of the people I graduated with who finished in the bottom third I wouldn't pay $20 to wash my car, let alone handle my legal affairs. Also most are doing PI work/insurance defense.

Southern Law is really more of a revenue generation scheme rather than an actual school. When over 50% of your students can't pass the bar, you're not doing anything well.


Maybe so. But the top litigator in the state is a Southern grad.
