Major shifts in US law and medical school rankings for 2023-2024.
U.S. News & World Report released its new law school rankings, which saw significant shifts among elite law schools and many schools further down the list. The changes were primarily due to the publication's overhauled methodology that increased the weight of employment outcomes and bar passage rates and reduced the weight of Law School Admission Test scores and undergraduate grade-point averages. Sixty-two law schools saw their ranks increase or decrease by double digits this year, compared with 27 schools last year.
