Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 3130245, member: 1414"] I got wait listed twice back in 1990 and 1991. Went elsewhere. Glad I did. With law school the class is pretty small, and I think UConn takes an extra critical view of UConn grads, so that they have a little more diversity. My grades were just ok due to some early hiccups, but my LSAT was above the median at every law school in the country. Where else did you apply? My view on law school is never go Private if it isn’t a Top ten law school. Public school in a place you could see yourself living, because hiring is very regional. Law School itself will steer you towards private practice and litigation. And that is good training, but I didn’t like it at all. I’ve been in-house now since 1996. No regrets on this career path. As to the naysayers, it’s a good, useful education. I was a business major. My view is that business undergrad + JD >>>> business undergrad + MBA in preparation for a business job at an executive level. [/QUOTE]
