Via Above The Law, Princeton Review recently posted its new selectivity ranking for law schools. The methodology, according to Above the Law:
This ranking was based on school-reported data, including the median LSAT scores and undergraduate GPAs of entering 1L students, the percent of applicants accepted, and the percent of accepted applicants who later enrolled.
According to Princeton Review, these are the law schools that are the most difficult to get into:
- Yale University Law School (no change)
- Harvard University Law School (no change)
- Stanford University School of Law (no change)
- Columbia University School of Law (ranked #9 last year)
- University of Pennsylvania Law School (ranked #10 last year)
- University of Chicago Law School (unranked last year)
- University of Virginia School of Law (ranked #4 last year)
- University of Michigan Law School (ranked #6 last year)
- Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law (unranked last year)
- New York University School of Law (ranked #5 last year)
As Above The Law notes, some omissions (e.g. Duke, #6 in the US News Ranking) are surprising.
