4.0 out of 5 stars Good Resource, but outdated data, May 26, 2009

By	Mike (NJ) - See all my reviews

This is a good resource as they provide quotes from actual students from virtually every accredited law school. There is even useful information like study hours at each school. (not sure how accurate that is though!).

The only downside to this book is that it definitely uses outdated data for things like careers and admission statistics. I think the stats are from 2007 unlike usnews which uses uses the last years data. Still, this book is another good reference for your law school search because it provides some different info. I don't know of any other law school book that takes actual students opinions into account and that was one of the reason's I liked this one a lot.

I also recommend checking out [...] for great free resources on law schools and legal careers. This website proved very useful to me in addition to the other sources like princeton review and usnews.
