Description

This comprehensive resource helps people considering a law degree to differentiate between schools and to answer common questions regarding the law degree. The emphasis is placed on what is unique about each law school, and where the school's strengths and weaknesses lie. Comparisons among the schools are made in the appendix using charts, and special characteristics are highlighted in the “Unique Characteristics” chapter. Also included are chapters on myths surrounding the law degree, trends and issues in legal education, aboriginal people and access to legal education, and how to improve your chances of being admitted.
