Does the university you go to really matter? (1 Viewer)

[flashyGoldFish]

Anyone that doesnt go to UNSW or USYD will say it doesnt matter.
But speak to anyone in law at a big firm and they will say it does.

You can choose who is more trustworthy and reliable

Eh, I've worked at a big firm. I'd have a hard time choosing if I had my time over. UTS has a free inbuilt PLT course, which saves me $10,000, but an ugly campus. What do? Realistically only a minority of a minority of graduates end up working at a large firm. If that's something you aspire to, good for you, but most students shouldn't base their decision on how much sandstone there is at a law school. Important things are accessibility, whether the school offers a free PLT and how hot the students are.

When it comes to a professional school I think the more famous the better. It's not just about the education quality but also networking you know. Getting to know people who can get you a good job afterwards. But then again a big fish in the small pond is better than a small one in the big pond. So don't go to a school that can be too difficult/challlenging for you.
