Legal employment outcomes in 2013
Earlier I blogged about the legal employment outcomes in California in 2013. Now that the ABA has released all of its data, I can run the same analysis for every law school (and update the now-out-of-date figures in a certain magazine's rankings). Like the California list, it includes the "full weight" positions as determined by U.S. News & World Report, which are full-time, long-term, bar passage-required or J.D.-advantage positions. It includes the 2015 USNWR peer score, the 2013 full-time, long-term, bar passage-required and J.D.-advantage positions, along with the year-over-year increase or decline in points from the 2012 rate. It then lists the raw number of students who obtained such positions, along with a parenthetical notation of how many of those positions were school-funded. The same is listed for 2012.
A few notes follow the table.
