Insightful Guide to the Top 15!

While most books focus solely on numbers and statistics, this book gives you a behind-the-scenes picture of what the school is really like: how hard the professors are, what the students are like, what the school looks for in an applicant, etc.I actually only wanted to check one of the top fifteen schools in the book, but I ended reading on most of the schools. This book will likely be appreciated by those who are thinking about, are attending, or have already attended one of the institutions in this book. But some may find it quite interesting to read about Harvard Law students, and how the school is different from what many would imagine it to be -- like who knew that some third year Harvard Law students don't attend classes?I'd recommend this book specifically for those who are planning to apply to those top law schools. For everyone else, you might want to check your local library or bookstore before you purchase this item (as you'll likely skim or read only the school you are interested in).** Note: Although the book was published over a decade ago, I found most of the material still relevant. However, most of the details will likely be obsolete in a few years.
