Best School in Texas

[onecircuit]

<p>so xiggi, tell us again how you stated that NONE of UC Berkeley’s departments are ranked HIGHER than those at Stanford.</p>

<p>let’s hear it again…</p>

[onecircuit]

<p>drax, again, Harvard, Yale and Stanford law school graduates represent 11% of Vinson & Elkins’ 750 attorneys, mostly based in the State of Texas. Vinson & Elkins, based out of Houston, is considered the top law firm in Texas. This compares to 29% for Univ. of Texas Law School.</p>

<p>I continue to state that:</p>

<p>"UT Law is ranked a respectable #15 in the country, but if you want to practice law in Texas, I would imagine that only Harvard, Yale and Stanford Law Schools would be preferable "</p>

[onecircuit]

<p>

I’ll let you go, because I’m guessing you’re a high-schooler. Nice chatting… feel free to rebut…

</p>

<p>Actually my level of education is a magnitude above your state school education…as witnessed by how you got completely and utterly destroyed in this debate…</p>

<p>Please tell us again how great UCLA is…</p>

</p>

<p>Yep, you win. Nice of you to revert to your hs days. </p>

<p>Dessttrroyyyed, lol…
:D</p>

[onecircuit]

<p>drax, actually this attack by you would be considered more like the high school days:</p>

</p>

[drax12]

<p>I don’t like to get into debates with high-schoolers, and I thought you were.</p>

<p>That’s why I really don’t like to wrangle with someone who has under xxx number of posts. </p>

<p>My mistake, I apologize…</p>

<p>And apologize for prolonging the UT Law discussion. Didn’t even warrant a back-and-forth response.</p>

[onecircuit]

<p>no problem drax…</p>

<p>my point was that even though Univ. of Texas Law School is only ranked #15 in the U.S., within Texas it is very powerful and highly regarded such that its graduates are sought after more than those from most schools ranked above it except maybe the top three…and I used the top Texas law firm, Vinson & Elkins, to make this point.</p>

<p>You see, I think that we were trying to make the same point.</p>

<p>By the way, the degrees are from Princeton undergraduate and Stanford graduate</p>

[xiggi]

<p>

so xiggi, tell us again how you stated that NONE of UC Berkeley’s departments are ranked HIGHER than those at Stanford.

</p>

<p>Tell you again something I never … stated? Read my post again … slowly and carefully.</p>

2010 nrc rankings. Lol!

</p>

<p>Ok **xiggi **- then, lets use another source. The following are departments in which UC Berkeley is ranked higher or equal to Stanford (7 higher and 9 equal). All of them are top 5 in the country.</p>

Tell you again something I never … stated? Read my post again … slowly and carefully.

</p>

<p>**sure xiggi, and here are your posted messages, SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY proving that you stated that UC Berkeley did not have any departments ranked higher than Stanford:</p>

<p>you started with this**:</p>

<p>

Is there a single program in an UG and graduate program at Berkeley that is better than at Stanford? No?

</p>

<p>I responded with this:</p>

<p>

xiggi, huh?</p>

<p>what is up with you?</p>

<p>you know better than this…</p>

<p>there are many UC Berkeley programs that are better than Stanford. In fact there are very few universities in the U.S. that compare across the board on a department by department basis to UC Berkeley - very few…

</p>

<p>and then you responded with this:</p>

<p>

Well, do not hesitate to correct me. Go ahead and list those “many” programs!

</p>

<p>I then proved you completely wrong by listing the rankings of 14 departments in which UC Berkeley is ranked higher than Stanford and asked you again:</p>

<p>

so xiggi, tell us again how you stated that NONE of UC Berkeley’s departments are ranked HIGHER than those at Stanford.

</p>

<p>and, of course, you denied what you had said above:</p>

<p>

Tell you again something I never … stated? Read my post again … slowly and carefully.

</p>

<p>@onecircuit</p>

[onecircuit]

<p>so kobudnik, what are you getting at?</p>

<p>that there are no undergraduate departments at UC Berkeley that are better than Stanford when we have shown how many graduate departments are better or equal to Stanford?</p>

<p>you wouldn’t want to look silly like xiggi has just looked would you?</p>

[xiggi]

<p>OC, if you made the effort to read my post instead of trying to display your quotation mastery, you’'ll discover that you and I talk about different elements. As a hint, check where I used the term “higher ranked” programs?</p>

<p>And this is the last I’ll say about this non-sensical discussion.</p>

<p>xiggi, it is what it is</p>

<p>we will just let the readers decide, won’t we?</p>

</p>

<p>Ah, it’s you.</p>

<p>Your posting style seemed oddly familiar.</p>

[liu02bhs]

<p>In other news, Berkeley and Stanford have decided to move to Texas due to the poor economy in California.</p>

[UCBChemEGrad]

<p>Thank you, onecircuit.</p>

[onecircuit]

<p>UCBChem, it is truly incredible how many departments UC Berkeley has ranked in the top 5 in this country eh?</p>

<p>truly incredible!</p>

<p>no other public universities even come close and only a couple of Private Universities are in the same ballpark - Stanford, Harvard and Princeton</p>
