    I do not know if pre-war pictures are a proof as I do not know how they shaved (maybe someone else can enlighten us). My grandfather used a chemical paste and not a shaver, but I do not know if this was common.

    To clarify Akuperma’s point, law school grades are curved. All people with scholarships are put in the same section. It is therefore mathematically impossible for everyone to keep their scholarship due to the curve (if you get a 99 and everyone else gets 100 on a final, your grade will be a D). I think 10% is to low, but a significant portion will lose scholarships.

    You will have to score higher on the LSAT with a BTL. No idea if it is true, but when I was applying to lawschool around 15 years ago, rumor was NYU does not accept BTLs. You can get an FDU degree in a short period (not exactly sure, but think it’s 6 months or a year) through online courses. However, I do not know if laws schools view this better than a BTL. Once in a law school, what school you are in is more important than your undergrad degree, and most firms will take people with BTLs.
