Top Law Schools

Thank you.

Has anyone figured out new stats yet? I saw top 5% and 10% are up but anyone know 30%.

Does anyone know when (and how) the school is notifying people about the Myron Taylor Scholar awards?

Also, has there been any word on CALIs? It seems like there's a fair bit of variance in how long they take to come through.

could I also get what the 30 percent cutoff was?

Myron Taylor Scholar (top 30% cumulative GPA after four semesters) has not gone out yet. The Registrar said that they will be out early next week (probably Monday or Tuesday).

Oh, I meant just for this semester.

Is taking two deals seminars (one with final, one without) a bad idea?

Does anyone know about Negotiated and Collaborative Decisionmaking?

Has anyone done the NY AG's office? I got the email and realized it would fill out my credits perfectly. The problem is that I'm not sure I could drive to Syracuse twice a week. Any thoughts on whether they're flexible about working from home or letting me do reduced credits in exchange for fewer hours?

Also is it interesting/fun/not an unreasonable amount of work?

You can do some work from home, but you really need to be able to go to Syracuse to login to their system and access the files on it, not to mention walk around the office and get assignments. You can probably just ask someone else in the clinic to give you a ride, as long as you're able to go in the same day of the week they do.

Each week is one full day of work in Syracuse, 6 hours of work at home, and a 2 hour class. I felt it was reasonable for the 6 credits. The work basically involves defending the state from prisoner claims and other lawsuits. Not sexy or super fun, but it was somewhat interesting and I got to draft some motions.
