Some Redditors were harsher than others, with some blasting this year’s rankings, while others turned to humor—at the expense of both the rankings and the law schools.
Shortly after U.S. News & World Report released its “Best Law Schools” rankings late Monday night, scores of people flocked to Reddit to air grievances and raise questions over the drastic changes from the prior year, particularly within the so-called T14, with many users focusing on Harvard Law School dropping to being tied at sixth place and Cornell being bumped from the T14 for the first time since 1990.
Reddit user u/MapAdministrative637 started the subreddit called r/lawschooladmissions by 10 p.m. Monday night, which has garnered more than 350 comments from Redditors like user u/Conscious_Bed1023, who wrote, “Someone tell U.S. News they’re a week late to April Fools.”
