Eclipsing Rankings: Assessing Law School Metrics

This chapter delves into the speaker's personal experience of witnessing a solar eclipse and touches on humorous anecdotes, like bathroom mishaps and TV show references. The conversation then transitions to a critical analysis of the US News rankings of law schools, expressing skepticism towards the methodology changes and the impact of schools like Yale withdrawing data. The chapter discusses the importance of considering financial factors in law school rankings, contrasting the US News rankings with the Above the Law assessment that prioritizes debt-to-job prospects ratio.
