Hey guys I need some advice on what you think I should do. I graduated with a degree in EE (3.73 GPA) and a minor in chemistry. Does it matter if I attend a T3/T4 law school but do well ? How would this effect my job prospects (I would have passed the patent bar exam by graduation)? I cant get a concrete answer on this, because I have read on TLS that rank is all that matters, but read also on other sites for patent work it does not.

Thanks a bunch!

You will have more networking contacts in larger firms if you go to a higher-ranked law school, so yes, law school rank still will matter.

Still matters, though you should be OK with the EE background.

Even though  and  could be Pandora’s hottest proposition, other appealing red  jewellery is usually obtained as well. Lovepod rings and earrings set with red topaz function alongside silver options set with garnet and rhodalite, when red leather cord necklets await the attachment of beads.Established in 1982 by goldsmith Per Enevoldsen, at the moment is called a jewellery phenomenon inside the international scale.

You might find this charts helpful, even though they show law degrees as a whole, not necessarily IP-related degrees.

It matters less for a patent attorney, but it still matters. If you have a 3.73GPA in an EE degree though, why on earth can't you get into at least a T2?
