Do you use LST? Help us improve our services!

Post by jenesaislaw » Mon Aug 01, 2016 6:30 pm

Hi TLS --

I run Law School Transparency. We are releasing a brand new, mobile-friendly version of the LST Score Reports very soon. If you've used or plan to use LST services at all, your feedback will be really valuable to us.

You can take the survey here: https://[link redacted]/forms/uDJhbgJIrEFPasNp2
If you want to be a beta tester for the new site, be sure to give us your email address and toggle "yes" on the last page of the survey.

Much appreciated!

Kyle

Posting here because I'm interested in others' thoughts.

I've always wanted to see employment data (i.e., outcomes) for the students who, for example, actually participated in OCI, or actually applied for AIII clerkships, rather than the proportion of all students at a given school who secured these positions. I think there might be some pretty big differences between schools as far as what types of employment their student body tends to seek.

This data may not be available to you, and it may not be as relevant to students considering schools that are outside of the top tier of schools. But I don't know. Just wishful thinking.

You're doing such a great public service. So many people benefit. Keep it up!

That's been a common request for years. It definitely is limited by the data publicly available and, to a certain extent, to the data collected by schools already. The trouble for us is that it's a low priority issue -- first with trying to stop schools from deceiving people and forcing schools to be more transparent about the kinds of jobs people get and now with exploitative admissions and retention policies at a solid minority of law schools.

Frankly, the data would really only benefit those applying to the top law schools, which are more or less responsible actors. We only have so much bandwidth.
