They did it!  The folks who create Super Lawyers have parsed their data to see which law schools produce the most promotion-worthy lawyers.  The top 10 list follows:

    Rank Law School
    1

Harvard Law School

    2

University of Michigan Law School

    3

The University of Texas School of Law

    4

University of Virginia School of Law

    5

Georgetown University Law Center

    6

New York University School of Law

    7

Columbia Law School

    8

University of Florida Levin College of Law

    9

University of California Berkeley School of Law – Boalt Hall

    10

Yale Law School

Blawgletter fancies some will fuss that the ranking system overstates the throw weight of big law schools on a lawyer-for-lawyer basis.  We can already hear the Yale law alums griping that Harvard graduates THREE TIMES as many as the New Haven school generates each year (circa 600 v. circa 200).

Do the numbers add up?  Super Lawyers lists 3,568 HLS grads and 1,091 from YLS.  Go figure.
