Figures don’t lie but liars can figure. Whichever side of the statistics you look at (the law schools’ numbers vs. the failure indebted graduates’ numbers) is full of lies. There are more graduates from non-top-tier schools than top-tier schools. Even St. John’s, ranked 95th in the country, with the most anti-law school adjusted numbers, has 46.63 percent job placement #s in private firms. 25/50/75 percentile salary is 75k/150k/160k. Being that St. John’s offers large scholarships if one does well on the LSAT, one can theoretically have a very cheap Law School education, be in the better half of the class in not such a great school and make good money. The numbers given are the 9 month #s as adjusted by the law school transparency website.
