I found your video on my recommendations since I’ve been binge watching videos about law and I loveeee your channel so much already. Just like you, my major in college is Communication and I want to go to law school afterwards and I have been advised to add philosophy as my minor. This video was very helpful to at least know what schools are out there, best ones of course. Harvard is on the top of my list, but the tuition is crazy high. I’m currently thinking about others in Colorado!!
Yes, tuition is high at Harvard, but job opportunities and salaries are also high. The conventional wisdom is get into an elite law school and pay the full tuition if you can.
Graduates from all law schools end up with important and rewarding careers. But those that graduate from elite law schools tend to get much higher profile jobs right out of law school, which improves their chances of landing even better jobs later in their careers. For example, every current US Supreme Court justice attended Harvard or Yale law school.
Great video! Professor Baez, have you made a video in regards to what big law firms seek in law students when hiring and the work-life balance for an associate working in a big law firm? I do not see any. Also, do law schools consider the difficulty of your coursework during the application process? For example, do schools check to see if you took fairly easy elective classes which resulted in a high GPA. If so, could this hinder chances of admission? Lastly, when is it the most optimal time for students to apply for law schools during the admission window. Thank you, Your videos are very helpful!
There is little no no work-life balance in Big Law. Expect 10 to 12 hour days, 6 days a week. And you need to check emails on Sunday. There is a high level of burnout and most associates don’t last more than a few years. And for those that do survive, divorce rates are high and substance abuse is high. As to course difficulty, admissions departments don’t look at that. It comes down to GPA 98% if the time. When I was on the faculty admissions committee we only looked at course difficulty at the end if the admissions cycle when we were filling the last few seats and had too many candidates. Then we would discuss majors and schools. There are just too many applicants to do that kind of work throughout the admissions cycle. The best time to apply to law school is on the first day a law school accepts applications. Early in the process law schools don’t know what their pool is going to look like so they may take a student on the lower end of their criteria. But that same student, applying later, may find that stronger students applied and now can’t get in. So apply early!
Would you say it is worth it to go to law school if I want to do a joint degree in law and neuroscience ? I really want to go into neurolaw (implications of neuroscience on the legal system) but I know getting a JD and PhD will be extremely rigorous and time consuming - I am willing to put in the time but do you think I would be successful?
I don't think you need a PhD to get into that area, thought it might be helpful. Do a search and find out what credentials others in that narrow field have. Also, might be worth talking to a few people in that field and see if they think it is necessary. Most people I know who have those specialized degrees got the PhD first, and then later figured out they wanted to be lawyers. In other words, they didn't plan to get both degrees--it just happened. If that is the case, maybe an undergraduate science degree plus the JD might be enough.
Thank you for your response! I have tried to do this but I’ve found that despite the existence of this program in several schools I’ve yet to find but a few who have the double degree - I try emailing professors but (understandably) they don’t email back most of the time. I also watched your video on the grading curve however - given that the joint degree switches off semesters between law and science, would this put me at a disadvantage in terms of class competition?
You should be fine from a grade perspective, but many law schools provide class ranking on the transcript. It would be useful to find out how they rank you-I’m guessing with the class you graduate with and not the one you started with.
Thank you! And one more question - do you think my undergrad school counts? BecauSe I’m currently applying and my grades would likely allow me to apply to a more selective college but I don’t want debt - would going to a state school and doing well there prohibit me from getting into top graduate schools?
In the US to have a good career you have to attend a top 14 law schools necessary, I do want to enter a good law school. I was thinking about Duke university what do you think.
There are many attorneys with great careers who attended any one of the 200 plus law schools in the US--you don't need to attend a T14 for a great career. Duke is a great law school and a degree from there can open many doors. But once you get in, work hard to earn top grades--the top students have more opportunities.
The problem with any ranking system are the criteria picked by the designers of the system. I’ve seen some ranking systems that take low ranked schools and move them to the top. All by changing some criteria.
Australia continues to impress! A country smaller than some US states in terms of population having 3 of the top 15 law schools in the world (along with similar achievements in science and medicine) is truly impressive. You go Australia!
Most US law schools don’t give scholarships to international students, instead requiring them to pay full price to help offset scholarships to US students. But to have a chance, you would need a very high LSAT and GPA.
Often, those in Big Law get opportunities that other lawyers don’t get. This is because they know more people with money to fund their campaigns. That being said, if you start in a smaller town, getting your name out there in the community might work. Though small communities tend to prefer locals over outsiders.
Research citation as criteria for ranking law schools. Is that a good idea? Having controversial law(s) and jurisdiction requiring a high academic output to short out the situation is an indication for what exactly? Law is not a universal science, where the finding applies to the whole universe. The finding are always specific to a jurisdiction and a time.
In law, much of the scholarship is theoretical. Then another large segment is not jurisdiction specific. In some ranking systems all that is examined is raw output, without any attempt at determining scholarly impact.
Sir i am law student Sir i have a question related international law: is there any law to stop war its amazing that USA do war with iraq then libea, syria But no law?
At the international level there is something called international law. But ultimately, it comes down to “might makes right.” If no one enforces the law then the law is just a piece of paper.
Yes correcto... international law is more about morality of the law... And without true sovereign and legal sanction according to Austin.... international law are not laws in true sense they're more about guidelines... And acc to Holland "international law is there vanishing point of jurisprudence"
Hello, I’m interested in a career in Law somewhat related with embassies or non governmental organizations. I believe I should look for a law school that’s prestigious enough for good opportunities in Europe. I have the highest grades of my high school that’s one of the top schools in Portugal. Would it be too different if I chose Universidade Nova de Lisboa (a modern law school - 20 years old - not that prestigious at the moment but with a super interesting curriculum and large investments in internalization) instead of Universidade de Coimbra (old prestigious school and outdated curriculum)? How beneficial would it be to get a masters or a PhD in Edinburgh university or Oxford on top of a law degree in one of those universities?
Well i find it strange that the University of Berlin, the Humbold University was the only one listed for Germany. In Germany the Humbold University of Berlin isnt special at all. It comes way behind all the Universities in Bavaria such as the University of Passau and the LMU ( If not the best adress to study law in Germany). Even Heidelberg is more famous for Law then Berlin. Also did the List not Mentioned the Private Universities in Germany. I know there are only a couple but for Example the Bucerius Law School in Hamburg made up a Name in the last few years and is known for its connections into the Companies. When it comes to Germany the List is just false.
This is always the problem with any ranking system. If you meet the criteria created by the ranking system, you are a top school. But if not, then you go down the list.
Really glad to see Edinburgh made the list, was really struggling to see if accommodation fees would be worth paying as I live in Glasgow so wasn't sure if worth it, would you recommend Edinburgh and moving away?
The key to speed reading is to not vocalize words in your brain as you are reading. We can read much faster than we can talk, so when you are hearing the words in your brain you are limiting how fast you can read. You can search the web and look for techniques on how to read faster.
Learn Law Better thanks for replying, I have tried to stop sub vocalising but constantly failed, any techniques that you find particularly helpful? Any book?
Learn Law Better ok, just a general question, would you agree that reading is the most important aspect of a lawyers job and that it's highly unlikely to succeed if you read slowly?
Reading is important but reading slowly doesn’t mean that a lawyer won’t be successful. Slow reading means you will need to handle fewer matters, which means you will make less money. But that is perfectly fine.
@Learn Law Better I wonder why in every ranking, the law school which is regarded as the number one in France (Paris 2 Panthéon Assas) is not even ranked by the sources?
It depends on the ranking criteria used. While everyone in a nation might agree, ranking criteria may also examine factors like number of volumes in a library, faculty to student ratio, number of published works by faculty, etc.... I've seen some ranking systems take a nation's weakest law schools and move them to the top.
@Haider thank you very much for this! Im doing a dual degree in law between University College Dublin (UCD) and Assas so was just wondering how others would have felt regarding sorbonne vs assas and what you have said echoes alot of what I have heard thus far! I'm doing my maîtrise (M1) in droit fiscal there so I think I'm pretty happy with my choice of Assas! If I may ask, how did you find the job hunting process or entering graduate roles upon finishing in Assas?
The practice of law in the US is regulated by each of our 50 States. In many States you would need to first earn a JD degree-a three year program. In others you could earn an LLM at a US accredited law school and then sit for the bar exam. And then there are some that will let you sit for their bar exam with your foreign law degree. Though you also need to consider job prospects. There are currently thousands of unemployed lawyers in the US. Many firms will hire a US trained lawyer first because they understand the US legal system better. Next, you would need a work visa-not easy to get.
@@Learnlawbetter yes because the top government law schools in India usually do really well at international level moots. Also the top govt college is called "the Harvard of the east". But I get it. Different criteria. Also we have very few people coming in to study law in India so that might account for its public perception or more accurately the lack of it.
Sir, please can you list the best schools for law in Nigeria? And does Law student in Federal university have more advantage than Private Universities?
Apologies for the year late reply my good sir but the University of Lagos rates at the top of law schools in Nigeria. University of Ilorin ranks at second place. Obafemi Awolowo University ranks in 3rd place. These are current rankings that are subject to change.
Also to answer your second question, what truly matters isn't where you go to school but where you plan on practicing. While around the world, Harvard might be the ultimate best place to go to, if you live in a country where only Federal Universities reside then Federal university is the route to go.
not strictly. If south korea has a judicial system that is modern, fair, simple and predicable, then it requires less academic research then other judicial system that is an antiqued, unfair, over-complicated and unpredictable system.

Don't listen to her. She represents a bunch of biased, unemployed law students who couldn't pass the bar exam. Now they want to blame the law school for their failure.
@@Learnlawbetter ah okay. Thank you for replying! Always look forward to more videos. Extremely helpful. I asked about those two because in the coming year I'm hoping to get a place in the Law and French Law course in University College Dublin as they also have BCL/Maitrise dual degree program in that course that'll have you spend years 3 and 4 in Université Paris 2 Panthéon-Assass. You end up graduating with an honours bachelors degree from UCD and a masters essentially from Sorbonne-Assass.
In the US, after high school you first must earn an undergraduate degree in any discipline-4 years. Then law school is 3 years. Next is the 1 year LLM program. Finally, most people can complete a PHD in law in 3 years. But few people get that far.
In the State of California, someone can apprentice with a lawyer after only two years of college. Also, keep in mind that one doesn’t need an LLM or PHD to practice law.

not strictly. If south korea has a judicial system that is modern, fair, simple and predicable, then it requires less academic research then other judicial system that is an antiqued, unfair, over-complicated and unpredictable system. Using acadamic reasearch output as a metric for ranking law schools is the wrong way around. The ideal law school would create laywers, that write consistent law, that is applied consistent etc. But that does not need a lot of academic publications, as there is little room for interpretation. A law school trying to increase its ranking offocurse, would try to reinterpret and change long standing law interpretation - if they are successful, they will be cited over and over again. Is that truly a good thing? Going a step further, the aliumni might get outright starting to write laws that will later be found unconstitutional later. Going one step further: The law can be implemented in a way, where it is obvious that in ends up in the supreme court, but will take the longest time possible to get there, giving scholars a research subject for decades.
