I'm a 2L looking to round out a tough schedule (I'm taking Fisch for corporations) with some easy classes. Any suggestions?

should be plenty of old outlines available and I found the E&E helpful. Also study the old exams. Good enough for a B+ at least.tigersaresexy wrote:Anyone who took Bratton for corp have a supplement recommendation? That class is just the worst and I'd like to stop going if that's possible

Good thought on the bootcamps! Unfortunately I doubt I can get into one now having missed registration =\ I took Wharton already and Parchemovsky isn't gonna be at Penn this semester, so no Copyright/TM.Clearly wrote:have you already taken copyright, trademark, and the bootcamps? or if you haven't taken the wharton cert its now a 5 day all day bootcamp before the next semester. All of those options range from a few intense days to 5 week classes, although I don't know whats offered when.

I only got need based aid by negotiating with offers from other schools (which makes the need-based part a little suspect). I don't recommend applying ED. While I'm sure its possible to get a need based grant, you should assume you would get nothing if you're going ED.Bbbrian wrote:I have a random question that I know there isn't a perfect answer for, but I was wondering about how generous the law school is with handing out need-based grants? I know you have to complete a FAFSA and Need Access application, but assuming my FAFSA gives me a 0 EFC and Need Access form is filled out by a single mother, on disability, with no other income and little savings, how much NEED BASED fin aid could someone expect?
I'm assuming the higher need based grants for the most in-need students is around 15k/year, but before I apply ED with the understanding that I won't receive any merit based scholarship, I'm trying to get the best measure of the likelihood that I could get offered some type of need based grant. Even 5k a year would be helpful. Any personal experience with need-based aid from Penn Law would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
