Never ever ever ever go to a law school with the sole intent of transferring. You’ll definitely be miserable, and there’s no guarantee that your transfer will succeed, which basically leaves you with the option of paying a ton of $$ for 3 years at a bad school or dropping out.

Talking to people who have gone through the process, I heard that there’s a large % of hard working students in lower ranked law schools looking to transfer, and first year professors could have very arbitrary grading policies. That combined with the lack of courses to distinguish yourself means that you may not be able to achieve the necessary class rank no matter how hard you work.
