<p>how many or roughly what % of penn graduates go to law skool? is penn a good “feeder” for law schools? I’d assume most penn graduates will go for mba or medical… </p>

<p>right now, i’m stuck between brown and penn. as far as stats are concerned, brown, with its liberal arts foundation and open curriculum, seems to be a better feeder for law school… (and i really wanna go to law school)… </p>

<p>so i was leanin toward brown…but when i visited both places, I felt more fit and comfortable at penn (CAS). but then comes the grading policy… and as ya’ll know, Brown is pretty lenient when it comes to giving out As. As someone who really wants to go to law school, i cant deny that gpa is big.</p>

<p>so seniors out there… please give me some stats/advice and information about penn undergrads going to law school… and about the grading policy/inflation at penn…</p>

<p>i’d really appreciate your help.</p>

<p>Seems to be a pretty good feeder to me. But I’m also interested in how the other top schools compare. Anybody have a chart of the Ivys and rivals?</p>

<p>“In awarding 54 percent A’s, Penn’s College of Arts and Sciences surpasses every other Ivy League school. The College is Penn’s only undergraduate school to say it actively monitors grades.”</p>

<p>Penn does well in feeding to the top law schools, including Penn Law, which is ranked 7th.</p>

<p>Brown does a bit better in feeding to the top law schools, but keep in mind that it doesn’t have it’s own, top grad school.</p>

<p>Penn is an excellent feeder school. Any Ivy is an excellent feeder school.</p>
