Author Description

Choosing and getting admitted to the right law school is an important process. A student ready to apply is committing thousands of dollars (and years of loan payments) to this endeavor. This book gives students the benefit of both a school's objective information (tuition, admissions data, average LSAT scores, etc.) and the candid (often scathing) insights of what's really going on at each school. We tell students everything they need to know, such as: what LSAT score does it take to get in? what's the acceptance rate? how good are the professors? what's the placement rate for graduating students? how heavy is the workload? can you expect a high salary? We also include an "employment profile" of each school covered, so students can see what might be in store after graduating. A complete guide to the law school admissions process, and informative looks at over 200 top schools, makes The Best Law Schools the most helpful book on the market. This edition also includes a Headstart 2000 CD-ROM, which gives students access to law school applications.
