I've made a lot of videos on whether law school pays off. This one puts the whole answer in one place, with the numbers.
The answer comes down to what you borrow and what you earn. Three years of tuition at the priciest schools now runs over a quarter of a million dollars, and a full price seat and a full ride at a school ranked 40 or 50 can sit $200,000 or more apart. Starting salaries split in two. A little over half land between $55,000 and $100,000, big firms pay $225,000, and almost nobody sits in between.
The class of 2025 data is in here too. Five schools dropped more than 8 points in one year in graduates landing real legal jobs, Howard included. Read each school's own numbers before you sign anything.
The number that moves both sides is your LSAT score. It decides which schools say yes and how much they pay you to come.

I scored a 152 my first LSAT. Got to a 175. I've been teaching this test since 2005.
If you're prelaw, applying now, or stuck, you're in the right place.
