Strengthening my application for Law school

JDs from top schools do quite well in the consulting job market, but they don’t have any advantage I’m aware of compared to graduates of equivalently ranked business schools. If you have a ~2.5 undergrad GPA, it’s very unlikely that you’ll get into law schools as good as the B-schools you have a shot at with that GMAT and your work experience.

<p>Right, a so-so law school and a good B-school, which would mean an extended duration of upto 5-6 years of study as opposed to the combined 3-4 year JD-MBA programs offered by some of better branded universities.</p>

<p>So I guess , you may be right, apply only and only to a B-school instead of a combination of an average law school and a good B-school, since in most cases a JD from top schools will only matter in consulting but a degree from a good B-school is just as potent considering my GMAT score. And a JD from an average law school may not get me a job in consulting anyway. But a MBA from an average B-school will. Good insight, thanks.</p>
