This is still a little while away for me, but if I do pursue my question is if it really matters where I pursue if it is within Canada? While America has a wider range of Law Schools (with 9 accepting a median score of 145 on the LSAT), most Canadian law schools are pretty similar and generally accept people with a 3.7 (~80%) GPA and over 153 on the LSAT. My school has a law school program, but it's tougher to get into... basically the average GPA is 3.9 (~85%) and 163 on the LSAT.

As well, most of the law schools in Canada cost about 8-10,000 dollars CAD while my schools is around 19,000 dollars CAD. The nice thing about my school is that I can commute to it and so don't need to pay an extra 7,000 or however much it is to live at a campus although it would still be more expensive to do it at home. Of course, that is assuming I could get in at my school which I think would be near impossible. For my next three years after this one, I'd need to average that 85% and I'm not sure if I can do that here (they calculate the GPA by the last 3 years, each school does it a little differently).

Basically, my question is if I miraculously had the choice to choose would it necessarily matter which school I go it if they all have fairly high standards? Durk was telling me in the States that if you can't get into one of the top programs that it isn't worth going.

You should specialize in defending war criminals against human rights violations charges. Make some big bucks.
