2007 Law School Survey of Student Engagement Now Available

Here's the 2007 Law School Survey of Student Engagement (pdf). Produced by the Center for Postsecondary Research at Indiana University-Bloomington, this year's LSSSE is based on online surveys completed by 27,000 students at 79 law schools.

Among the findings:

• More than 75% of students rated their law-school experiences as good or excellent
• More than 20% of 3Ls went to class unprepared
• More than 33% of students will graduate with more than $100,000 in law school loans
• Private law schools are more academically challenging than public law schools
• African-American students are more frequently asked questions in class and participated in class discussions than other students
