Best Law Schools in the Country for Getting a High-Paying Job
Above the Law has published the results of its new rankings of law schools, based on current ABA employment data.
Topping the list is the University of Virginia School of Law.
“UVA Law jumped to the pole position this year on the strength of its Biglaw employment score. With our methodology, even a five percent bump in Biglaw employment score can shuffle a school’s position,” writes executive editor Elie Mystal. “This year, UVA’s Biglaw employment score jumped 13 percent.”
The University of Chicago, last year’s number one, dropped to third place. In the top 10, big movers included Northwestern University, which gained six places, Cornell University, up by four, and Harvard and Yale, which dropped by five and three places, respectively.
