Way to Go 2009

Commenter asks for a separate thread on the just released stats on the July 2009 exam.  We're at 93%, tied for 1st among California ABA law schools.  Out of staters that beat us include Harvard, NYU, and Yale.  All in all, great results.  It also should put to rest any gloating by other schools that achieve their results through forced attrition, final exams directly replicating the bar, and courses on "the performance test."    Good job, kids. 

On the troubling side, the racial numbers are scary.  And I wonder if the higher results overall (and at Boalt) are the result of the economic downturn and the fears of losing jobs that come along with that.
