Brown -> law skool

<p>Brown student’s get into slightly better law schools than the other schools on the list. Some evidence (albeit not perfect) is on this link, which shows the number of matriculating students from each college attending Harvard Law School:</p>

<p><a href=“http://www.law.harvard.edu/admissions/jd/colleges.php[/url]”>http://www.law.harvard.edu/admissions/jd/colleges.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Brown: 51
Penn: 53
Cornell: 40
Chicago: 16
Gtown: 33</p>

<p>You need to take class size into account to make these numbers more meaningful:</p>

<p>Brown: 5,700
Penn: 11, 687
Cornell: 13,625
Chicago: 4,672
Gtown: 6,537</p>

<p>To get these scores ((#at HLS/#ugrads)*100)</p>

<p>Brown: .895
Penn: .457
Cornell: .294
Chicago: .34
Gtown: .51</p>

<p>Admission to law school depends mostly on your LSAT and GPA. If Brown gets more people in to HLS than the other schools, it is because the students get better scores. The school itself does not get you in. A 3.7 GPA and a 175 LSAT from Brown, Penn, or Georgetown will provide you with similar options.</p>

<p>You should major in something that you can get a high GPA in. Therefore, forget about physics and engineering unless you want to be a patent lawyer (these majors are known for rigorous grading). Take some logic classes (which will help you on the LSAT). Any difficult social science or humanities concentration should be fine from these schools. Majoring in economics will give you more options if you decide not to go to law school.</p>
