Law School Rankings In The United States
Law school rankings are a specific subset of college and university rankings dealing specifically with law schools. Like college and university rankings, law school rankings can be based on empirical data, subjectively-perceived qualitative data (often survey research of educators, law professors, lawyers, students, or others), or some combination of these.
Such rankings are often consulted by prospective students as they choose which schools they will apply to or which school they will attend.
