Princeton Review’s Law School Rankings

The latest Princeton Review rankings have been released, focusing on two significant categories influenced by student feedback: schools with the most competitive students and those offering the best quality of life. Interestingly, none of the top 14 law schools (T14) appear on the first list, though they dominate the latter.

Schools with the Most Competitive Students

It’s no surprise that the nation’s most prestigious law schools are absent from the list of schools with the most competitive students. At these institutions, job prospects are generally assured, reducing cutthroat competition. However, other schools exhibit a fierce competitive spirit, with students reportedly engaging in underhanded tactics to gain an edge.

Students in this category responded to questions about their study habits and perceived competitiveness.
