I don't know much about Baylor. Houston is a big city, where you are more likely to get a decent job in a big law firm. Take that into account, as University of Houston Law, like many other non-Top14 law schools, is deemed as regional, which means that its graduates generally have more opportunities to get a job in the region where it is located. So attending a law school in a big city definitely offers you some advantages or conveniencies in job hunting.
Thanks for the input,Dave. Actually is it possible at all for Chinese students to get better grades than their American classmates? I mean like stay in the top 10% or 20% in their class?
It is my experience that to keep at top 10% or 20% could be quite difficult. But this doesn't mean you can't make it. Anyway, I think that you will be fine if you can stay at top 30%.
