Before You Post

If you get into HYS, go
If not, don’t

that about sums it up, right?

Not bad, but it’s probably also worth noting that full ride to Barry/ave Maria/Cooley is almost certainly not worth it.

赞 +1. It’s getting a little crowded in here

“Don’t go” is not an option for me, so can someone tell me what they think about this:

Accepted into Seton Hall, Rutgers, and Brooklyn Law. They will all cost around the same (10-15k/year) after scholarships, though Brooklyn’s is harder to keep.

What’s the best option?

You need to lay out the stipulations.

Also, where do you live?

Can you commute to any of these schools?

How many times did you take the LSAT and what are your numbers?

Love when people say that not going is not even an option

Unless someone is subsidizing your COL, this is not true. All three of those schools cost more than 10-15k per year in COL alone. So unless you have a full ride to each school, you’re way, way off. I’m assuming you mean 10-15k/year in tuition, which means another 20k or more in COL. If that’s correct, you’re now over 100k in debt after three years and we haven’t even begun to discuss interest. None of those schools are worth that much money, so you either need to retake or not go.

If these schools really are 10-15k/year in total cost of attendance, then retaking is still the best option, but I’d probably do Rutgers if you’re from NJ.

Also false. No one has a gun to your head.

I don’t get why anyone would HAVE to go to law school. However, don’t touch Brooklyn if there is a high probability of you losing the scholarship. Don’t touch Seton Hall’s scholarships because their stipulations are generally absurd and they section stack. So, go to RU. At least if you lose your scholarship there, you’ll have in-state tuition. Upon graduation you’ll have a 55/45 shot at a full-time legal job and it WILL be in New Jersey so just make sure you are ready to accept that.

This is dumb.

For BLS: 41k/year (tuition @ 9k/yr), remaining in the top 80%
For SHU: 36k/year (tuition @ 12k/yr), maintaining a 3.0 GPA
For R-N: 12k/year (tuition @12k/yr), remaining in top 50%

I took the LSAT once and got a 161. My GPA is 3.95 from a small private school in the midwest.

I live in Elizabeth, NJ so I can commute to Rutgers/SHU easily. I’d have to move to BLS housing or commute a long way, which would be costly.

My focus is in Human Rights Law or International Law, and I heard that BLS was good for that. BLS seems to have more classes in general and the opportunity to be in the city is very attractive to me.

What do you think?

dumb post..another T4 upset hes unemployed and trying to discourage everyone else..

Flame. Had potential. Decently played, I guess.

Threw us too much too soon.

TLS response: Don’t waste that 3.95 gpa - retake.

Since this is not the answer you’re looking for and I think you may pull the trigger anyhow - do not go to Brooklyn if you can commute to one of the other schools - the COL will be a huge waste of money.

If you must go, keep holding out on SHU and RU and keep pushing negotiations.


edit: seeing Human Rights and International Law - I hope this is a troll, lol.

My COL is very low if I stay in NJ given my current situation so going to RU or SHU seem like better options for me, especially so I can keep my job. But BLS seems like a better school for what I’m interested in (human rights/international law).

My thoughts exactly. OP has potential, but needs to work on the “long con” aspect of trolling.

lol @ your career aspirations from those schools

no one is this ignorant anymore

161 flame

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

When you say “pushing negotiations”…what does that mean. I’m sincerely a noob…and not a troll…and also not sure what a flame is…so take it easy on me
