Date: March 7th, 2010 9:56 PM Author: sinister mustard rehab police squad Is it possible to publish something in a decent law review not at your own school as a student, like say via an independent study? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1244172&forum_id=2#14327045) |

Date: March 7th, 2010 9:58 PM Author: Buff Halford Almost never happens. Most reviews actually have policies against publishing notes written by other schools' students. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1244172&forum_id=2#14327057) |

Date: March 7th, 2010 10:22 PM Author: arousing boistinker True but if your note is long enough you can just change "note" to "article" and submit it in the general pool. Not at all unusual for a genuinely good note to get picked up by a law review as an article. Not terribly likely at the absolutely best journals, but still common at good ones.

Date: March 7th, 2010 11:30 PM Author: arousing boistinker For no particularly defensible reason, I'd say getting published in the flagship journal of any of the top 30 or so law schools is pretty damn good. Those journals get cited regularly in top flight scholarship. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1244172&forum_id=2#14328177) |

Date: March 9th, 2010 3:43 AM Author: Balding Cracking Lay Doctorate Credited. Also, for academic hiring, they discount peer-reviewed publications. Same for tenure. Law review pubs are what matter. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1244172&forum_id=2#14340060) |
|
Date: March 9th, 2010 10:04 AM Author: mind-boggling fat ankles I am not sure about the discount thing. peer-reviewed publication are impressive actually. a lot of law review/ journals do have some kind of review, sometimes it's internal + external.
my family professor published numerous articles in american journal of family law ... i think they have some sort of review system, but it's the general editor's approval that carries the most weight. |
