Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study presents detailed data on the level of interest of college undergraduates in the USA in going to law school with data broken out by many personal variables including academic major, gender, age, income level of family of origin, SAT/ACT scores, political convictions, race/ethnicity, religion and many others. It also breaks out interest in law school by the institutional variables of type or Carnegie class, public/private status, tuition level and total enrollment. Data in the report is based on a survey of 1,289 full time college students at 4-year colleges in the United States. In open ended questions, survey respondents name the academic major that they feel would best prepare them for law school and the law schools to which they are most likely to apply. Law schools mentioned are tabulated by the ACT/SAT scores of the survey respondents so that end users of the report can find out how many times particular law schools were mentioned as likely application targets by students at different levels of standardized test results.Just a few of the many findings of this report were that: ?Broken out by gender, nearly three times as many men as women in the sample had already applied to law school.?Sixteen students in the sample planned to apply to Harvard Law School, the most of any school in the sample.?Students who grew up in small cities with fewer than 350,000 inhabitants were significantly likelier to be interested in going to law school than those who grew up in major cities, suburbs or rural areas.

This book was released on 2022-08-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study gives highly specific data on the graduate school plans of American college students with unique and targeted demographic data sets for plans to go to law school, medical/dental/veterinary school, MBA programs, international affairs/public affairs masters degree programs, PHD programs in the humanities, PHD programs in the hard sciences, masters programs in nursing/occupational and physical therapy and much more. The report helps its end users to answer questions such as: how does demand for MBA programs differ from that of law school? What are the demographics of interest in medical school vs. nursing or occupational therapy programs? How much demographic overlap is there? Beyond students obviously interested in graduate school in a given area, who are those students with more than a passing interest but who have not quite made up their minds? What is the demographic profile of these students? The report will help graduate schools, academic advisors, enrollment and retention executives and others to help pinpoint demand for particular programs, specifying not only those who plan to apply but the level of interest of everyone else. By so many targeted variables the study enables its readers to measure interest in specific academic programs from specific segments of the current US college population, with variables such as age, academic major, gender, sexual orientation, grades, SAT/ACT scores, regional origins, religion, level of student debt, income level of family of origin, population concentration of region of origin and many other personal variables. The study also breaks out data by key institutional variables so readers can estimate program and subject demand by type of college, size of college, public/private status and even tuition level. Data in the 197- page report is based on a representative sample of 1,765 full time US college students drawn from a representative sub sample of more than 90 colleges and universities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Law School Survey of Student Engagement (LSSSE) focuses on activities that affect learning in law school. This year's results show how law students spend their time, what they think about their experience in law school, and guide schools in their efforts to improve engagement and learning. The selected results are based on responses from more than 33,000 law students at 95 law schools in the U.S. and Canada who completed LSSSE in spring 2011. Promising findings include: (1) The vast majority of students rated their overall law school experience favorably; 83% reported that their experience in law school was good or excellent; (2) Eighty percent of students said that they definitely or probably would attend the same law school if they could start over again; (3) Students with high levels of law school-related debt more often used and were satisfied with career support at their law school. Of students who expected to owe more than $80,000 in law school-related debt after graduating, 64% used and were satisfied with job search support, and 84% used and were satisfied with career counseling at their school; (4) Nearly 80% of students discussed their career plans with faculty at some point during law school; (5) Ninety-three percent of students have had serious conversations at some point during law school with students who are very different from themselves in terms of their religious beliefs, political opinions, or personal values, and 62% of students have had these conversations frequently; (6) A large majority (91%) of students have had serious conversations during law school with students of a different race or ethnicity; (7) Nearly four in five students (79%) reported that their law school placed a substantial emphasis on encouraging the ethical practice of law; (8) Half of students (51%) rated their relationships with faculty very highly (6 or 7 on a 7-point scale) in terms of availability and helpfulness; and (9) Nearly nine in 10 students (88%) felt that their law school experience contributed substantially to the acquisition of a broad legal education.

Book excerpt: The Law School Survey of Student Engagement (LSSSE) documents dimensions of quality in legal education and provides information and assistance to law schools and other organizations to improve student learning.

This paper presents findings from the first annual LSSSE. More than 13,000 law students from 42 law schools filled out the LSSSE survey in spring 2004. Promising findings include: (1) About 4 in 5 (82%) law students rated their law school experience "good" or "excellent," and a similar number (79%) would "probably" or "definitely" attend the same law school; (2) Two-thirds (68%) of law students spent more than 20 hours per week preparing for class, and 87% came to class with their readings or assignments completed; (3) Almost 9 in 10 (88%) students said their law school, to a substantial degree, emphasizes studying and spending time on academic work; (4) Three-fourths (76%) of students indicated their school placed a substantial degree of emphasis ("very much" or "quite a bit") on the ethical practice of the law; (5) Most students (94%) were "satisfied" or "very satisfied" with the library assistance at their law school; (6) Four-fifths of students had, or plan to have, a clinical internship or field experience while in law school; (7) About 74% of law students frequently ("very often" or "often") integrated ideas from various sources into papers or projects; (8) More than four-fifths (82%) of law students reported that their classes placed a substantial amount of emphasis ("quite a bit" or "very much") on applying theories or concepts to practical problems; (9) Part-time law students viewed their campus environment as equally supportive as their full-time counterparts; (10) More than half (56%) of students frequently ("often" or "very often") had serious conversations with students from different racial and ethnic backgrounds; and (11) Almost all students (96%) at least occasionally asked questions in class or contributed to class discussions. Disappointing findings include: (1) About one-third (32%) of students never discussed ideas from their classes or readings with a faculty member outside of class; (2) More than half (56%) of 3L and 4L students had not participated in volunteer or pro bono work in law school; (3) About 1 in 5 students (18%) say they "never" get prompt written or oral feedback from faculty members; (4) More than half (56%) of students reported that they will incur $60,000 or more of educational debt by the time they graduate from law school; (5) About 6 in 10 (63%) students said their law school gives little emphasis to providing the support needed for a successful employment search; and (6) Half of students are "unsatisfied" or "very unsatisfied" with the job search help and career counseling their law school provides. A list of notes is included. (Contains 5 tables and 4 figures.).

Book excerpt: The Law School Survey of Student Engagement (LSSSE) documents dimensions of quality in legal education and provides information about law student participation in effective educational activities that law schools and other organizations can use to improve student learning. This paper presents findings from the second LSSSE. Promising findings include: (1) Students who frequently received prompt oral or written feedback from faculty were more positive about their overall law school experience; (2) Nine in 10 students said their law school, to a substantial degree ("quite a bit" or "very much"), emphasized studying and spending time on academic work; (3) More than four-fifths of law students reported their classes emphasized to a substantial degree applying theories or concepts to practical problems; (4) About three-quarters of law students frequently ("very often" or "often") integrated ideas from various sources into papers or projects; (5) Part-time and full-time law students did not differ in terms of how they perceived the degree to which the law school environment supports their academic and social needs; (6) More than one-half of students frequently ("often" or "very often") had serious conversations with students from different racial and ethnic backgrounds; (7) Students who had more experiences with diversity in law school were more likely to report they benefited from law school and were more satisfied with their overall law school experience; (8) First-year law students who were satisfied with academic advising were more likely to perceive the law school environment as supportive and were more satisfied with their overall law school experience; and (9) Students who were satisfied with career counseling and job search assistance gained more in acquiring work-related knowledge and were more likely to have indicated they would attend the same law school if they could start over again. Disappointing findings include: (1) One-fourth (25%) of graduating law students (full-time 3L and part-time 4L) frequently came to class unprepared, compared with only seven percent of 1Ls; (2) About one in six students "never" received prompt written or oral feedback from faculty members; (3) About two-fifths of law students spent "no time" on cocurricular activities; (4) While the proportion of students seeking career counseling and job search help increased each year of law school, satisfaction with these services generally decreased; (5) About one-third (36%) of 1L students who sought personal counseling from their law school were "unsatisfied" or "very unsatisfied" with the counseling they received; (6) Almost one-half of students said their school did very little to help them cope with their nonschool activities (family, work, etc.); (7) International students viewed their relationships with classmates as less friendly and supportive than their American counterparts; and (8) The nine out of 10 JD students who incur debt to attend law school indicated they will owe more than $77,000 when they graduate.
