Where did the Princeton review get their law school rankings?
Last week, I blogged the lists of the Top 10 law schools in eleven categories posted on Princeton Review’s web site in connection with its publication of the 2010 edition of Best 172 Law Schools (with the University of Cincinnati College of Law on the cover). The rankings are the result of Princeton Review’s survey of 18,000 students at the 172 law schools, along with school statistics provided by administrators. I have extracted from the individual profiles of the 172 law schools all of the available data to rank the schools in six categories. I will report each day on one of the ranking categories. Professors Accessible Rating: Based on law student opinion. We asked law students to rate how accessible the law faculty members at their schools are on a scale from 60 to 99. Here are the law schools with the most and least accessible professors: School Score School Score 1 Mercer 99 146 Florida 70 Pepperdine 99 Memphis 70 Virginia 99 New York Law School 70 4 Boston Univ. 98 Suffolk 70 Ch
The Princeton Review — known for its college rankings based on how students rate their schools – tomorrow releases the 2010 editions of its annual law and business school guidebooks which also feature rankings uniquely based on student surveys. Among them: “Best Professors” on which University of Chicago’s law school and Harvard’s business school ranked #1 in the law school and b-school guides, respectively, and “Best Career Prospects” with Northwestern University’s law school and University of Michigan-Ann Arbor’s business school capturing the top spots. The Princeton Review compiled the rankings based on its surveys of 18,000 students attending the 172 law schools and 19,000 students attending the 301 b-schools in the books, as well as on school-reported data.
