Summary
"Women students' success at law school depends to a large degree on things you can anticipate - the makeup of the faculty, the culture of the campus, even its location. This book will help you identify the schools at every level of status or selectivity where women can do their best. Linda Hirshman, lawyer and law professor, provides statistics, ratings, and data - and introduces you to a wide range of women who have succeeded. Using her book, you can make wise choices that will help you not just to survive but to thrive before, during, and after your legal education."--BOOK JACKET.
