Re: To those familiar with law school/the admissions process...
It isn't always about the name. Like the example I told you, Fulbright and Juworski is one of the largest defense firms in the US and one of the tops places to work in Houston, they interview canidates from Harvard, Yale, Penn, UT as well as South Texas, Houston, Baylor. The difference is the will interview someone in the top 25% from Harvard, but only take people in the top 10% or top 1% from Houston or South Texas.
Getting the interview is the main purpose your school does for you, once you get the interview your creditals are good enough to be hired at that point it is just how well you interview and sell yourself. (This is coming from several different attorneys I know who work or have worked there, so it is second hand)
