PreLaw Magazine's Top Law Schools for Practical Skills Training

PreLaw Magazine has ranked law schools based on a formula that takes into account the number of clinical opportunities available per the total number of students enrolled, the number of field placement opportunities available to students, and the number of seats offered in law practice simulation classes.  In addition, according to the accompanying article, PreLaw also considered each school's pro bono programs as well as "other [course] offerings" (you can read a more detailed explanation of the magazine's ranking methodology by scrolling to page 27 of the accompanying article here).
