It's great that it costs 45K less, but you're still shelling out like 200K all in to attend, probably more. Even with an SA position, still, that's 120-140K+ (factoring in loan interest rates).

Date: April 24th, 2013 10:31 PM Author: walnut arrogant skinny woman double fault For 30K, I say do it. Oh what a scholar I must be.
30K is not life crushing. You could literally be unemployed and end up fine. You can pay 30K back working at Barnes and Noble.
The key is being smart about law school. If you want to practice law, gun like fuck 1L year. Cop that OCI bid. But if you don't get a large firm gig, either be prepared to drop out, or, use your time right. 30K is not life crushing.
That said, if it's 30K on top of losing 3 years of income, you might want to think again. |

|
Date: April 24th, 2013 10:29 PM Author: Electric abode mad cow disease yes, it's employment stats are great. I don't know your background, but I think NUs employment statistics are what they are in part because a VERY high percentage of NU law students are older, and have work experience. This may not sounds like a reason, but i've heard from some bros who went K-JD that they have a hard time competing with the WE people. Don't know why or that it makes sense, just what i've heard.
that being said, i'd much rather be in chicago than AA for 3 years |

Date: April 24th, 2013 10:31 PM Author: Irate At-the-ready Mad-dog Skullcap so you think there are just less aspie weirdos at NU and they get better jobs because they know how to deal with other people, basically? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2239148&forum_id=2#23070907) |

Date: April 24th, 2013 10:34 PM Author: Electric abode mad cow disease i honestly don't know why though i think it may be more a result of firms rating candidates who previously worked in banking, at some tech company, or even in government above people with no work experience; not as much about the aspiness of the students, i'd think both schools are similar in that respect (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2239148&forum_id=2#23070932) |

Date: April 24th, 2013 10:21 PM Author: walnut arrogant skinny woman double fault Michigan ranks higher but Northwestern seems to do better with firm placement. Northwestern seems to have better Chicago placement and natural ties. Older students. Better city for law school (AA is cool though).
Michigan is slightly cheaper. Football would be fun. |

Date: April 24th, 2013 11:03 PM Author: Bisexual hissy fit sneaky criminal i would say nu. mich law is historically more "prestigious" but you cannot underestimate the importance of being local, esp if you dont get a sa at oci. plus you can extern/intern/work during law school, which is not only important for finding post-grad work, but also important for staying sane. but to be fair, i really like aa, and the col would be much cheaper there. It seems like a really cool place to go to school, just make sure you are going to be in the top 1/x (1/3? 2/5?) and will get a job during oci. the older you get the more it tilts towards chicago.

Date: April 24th, 2013 10:48 PM Author: blue wild affirmative action base Something like that (not going to say when exactly). Things may have improved for Michigan by now, but I doubt it.
By the way, it's really not that fun to live in Ann Arbor. I had an undergrad prof friend who got his Ph.D. there and always talked about how cool it was -- but really it's not (except for a few highlights).
Socially, it's just tons of students of every possible variety. Even though it was great to hang out with students in college, for some reason it's just depressing in law school. To find anyone not connected with the school, you practically have to go to Ypsilanti. |

Their dumbfuck undergrads were too stupid to get good LSAT scores and were dragging down the law school's USNWR ranking, so a few years ago they told kids with high GPAs they could go to law school there as long as they didn't take the LSAT and drag down the numbers. What a festering TTT in decline. To think it was once a T3 law school... (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2239148&forum_id=2#23071105) |

Date: April 25th, 2013 10:17 PM Author: blue wild affirmative action base Ok, fine, according to this cost-of-living calculator, you're right: http://money.cnn.com/calculator/pf/cost-of-living/. Here's the savings you get from living in Ann Arbor as opposed to Chicago:
Groceries - 14% less Housing - 21% less Utilities - 10% more Transportation - 12% less Health Care - 9% less
I don't think this difference is huge, or at least it didn't feel that way. Maybe I didn't notice the difference because I was living nearby the law school, where the rents are higher and stuff is generally pricier.
Also, it's pretty easy to do fun stuff for cheap in Chicago. Go to one of the dozens of good BYOs, spending about $20 with alcohol factored in. Go see a band at the Metro or Lincoln Hall for $20 or so. Etc. |
