Law School Grades

Generally law school professors do not like to discuss law school grades. When they do, professors often speak with ambivalence. "Grades do not matter...that much," they are apt to say.

This mixed message can be aggravating to an inquiring mind, one which simply wants to guage the prestige lost from receiving a C in Legal Writing.

The New York Times this morning added to the pile of evidence showing that grades do matter (generally).

I'll keep looking for articles/stories that illustrate why grades don't matter - it might take awhile.
