<p>No change at the top.</p>
<p>pretty significant change if you look at the scores. Harvard is inching up to Yale now.</p>
<p>I was also pretty surprised to see Harvard’s score be so close to Yale’s.</p>
<p>Chicago over NYU is also a big change.</p>
<p>So, I’ve always read that the T14 are a strange number like 14 simply because it’s always the same 14. Did that change at all? The 15th here didn’t even come onto the radar?</p>
<p>The reason 14 is a magic number bcos at one time, all of those in the T14 were ranked in the top 10. Thus, T-14 sorta represents a ‘large’ Top 10. So, for 15 to mean anything, it’ll have to jump to #10 for a year.</p>
<p>It’s also been the same 14 schools for the last 20 years. In 1987 (there were no '88 or '89 rankings), Texas was 11th and UCLA was 14th. Cornell and Northwestern were 15th and 16th.</p>

<p>Interesting that two private schools bumped in and two publics bumped out.</p>

<p>Harvard is pulling further away from Stanford. Weren’t they tied a couple of years ago?</p>
<p>Stanford was HIGHER than Harvard a few years ago…which many suspect was the reason the then HLS dean left. Kagan came in and really did some great things. Students LOVED her for them. Harvard went up. Now Kagan is Solicitor General and HLS has a new dean. It will be interesting to see what happens.</p>
<p>Stanford is making a push to increase their LSAT stats. I believe, for this year, they’ve modified their index formula to give more weight to the LSAT score.</p>
<p>Kagan really was something special – Obama really decimated his alma mater with that pick. (Of course, presumably she is as excellent an SG as she was a Dean.)</p>
<p>well she will also be a great SCOTUS :P</p>
<p>Haha – all by herself?</p>
<p>I actually don’t think Kagan will get it, but that’s just my intuition.</p>
<p>My guess is that Obama’s going to continue the trend of judicializing the judiciary. So I’m with FH.</p>
<p>what are your predictions</p>
<p>Hillary – (at least that was my prediction back during the Primary season).</p>
