<p>ok after eliminating top schools( u of michgan, u of florida, boston u, northeastern, usf, and many more) its come down to st.marys college of california and pepperdine university.</p>
<p>pepperdine is more prestigous but has a lot more rules and is more conservative than st.marys.</p>
<p>i dont know which school to pick, please help me out</p>
<p>I'd say Pepperdine.</p>
<p>yea man im leaning that way. iono they just seems so strict and pepperdine is so
" i dont care". </p>
<p>i wish i had more time.</p>
<p>Pepperdine is probably more widely known than St. Mary's, which by the way, kind of matters in the job market. but it also depends on what you want to do.</p>
<p>well st.marys will be a 8 grand cheaper and i plan on goin to law school anyway.</p>
<p>right now st.marys is sounding real sweet but pepperdine is of course the better school.</p>
<p>this isnt fun lol</p>
<p>i can deal with the no alcohal policy at pdine cuz i realize that im not payin 48 grand a year to get drunk</p>
<p>only things that suck are the required weekly convocations and the "no sex between non married couples"</p>
<p>i love pepperdien but st.marys doesnt require those</p>
<p><em>headache</em></p>
<p>why did u turn down U MICH
its by far the best one on ur list</p>
<p>im not a fan of big public schools. I perfer schools with small classes in quiet enviorments. plus im a cali residents so u of michigan will cost just as much as pepperdine.</p>
<p>why not USF? I'd pick st marys for a more relaxed four years...</p>
<p>iono which way to lean anymore</p>
<p>and i HAVE TO MAKE UP MY MIND BY TUESDAY!!!!!!!!!!1</p>
<p>pepperdine!!!!!!!</p>
<p>lol thanks. but can u please explain y pdine would be better</p>
<p>??????????</p>
<p>Pepperdine is better known nationally. If you don't like the atmosphere there, though, I don't think you should go there.</p>
<p>if your going to go to law school anyway just go to st marys and use that extra money for law school.</p>
<p>Wow, if you're hoping for a top law school I'd bite the bullet and go to Michigan. That admit a lot of their own grads to their top law school. I think you'd have to do amazingly well at St. Mary's for a top law school. Don't they take like 90 something % of admits? Pepperdine before St Mary's but I'd go to Mich if I were ambitious.</p>
<p>^ im not goin back to bring any other schools into my decision. ive already thought this through. its just pdine or st.mays. i see u said pdine. thanks</p>
<p>anyone else</p>
<p>if ur going to be that stubborn
than pepperdine</p>
<p>but if u want the best education possible, then ur making the wrong decision</p>
<p>Yeah, I don't see why Michigan is such a bad choice. I mean, sure, it's large, but it's 10x better than St. Mary's and 5x better than Pepperdine. If you truly want a good shot at top law schools, UMichigan is the easiest route. Going from Pepperdine to a top ivy is rare.</p>
<p>U OF M!!!! By far has the best reputation out of all of them</p>
