Is there any sort of published information about admission statistics to the accredited LLM programs? In particular, I am interested in the tax LLM.

My situation is this: I graduated from a tier-4; I had a solid UGPA and my LSAT was in the top 10%, but I chose the tier-4 based on my needs and objectives at the time--the school offered me a 90% scholarship, I had no desire to work at a large firm, and I was particularly interested in doing public interest work (thus, the necessity of minimal law school debt). I ended up graduating in the top 1/3 of my class in 2004; I was not on law review, I did not join moot court, I have not had a judicial clerkship.

I was admitted to the California bar after graduating; I did not go into public interest work full-time because I have since concluded that the groups that I was primarily interested in working with are idealogues, which I am not; I have instead opted to work with a group as an affilate attorney, which permits me to pick and choose those cases that I would like to assist with on a pro bono basis. Since graduation, I have worked with a boutique firm that has been aligned with my values and encourages my pro bono work.

Still, I want to change my practice area and I am trying to estimate to which schools I might have access. I can't find any quantifiable information about admission policies and competitiveness to any of the LLM programs; is that information available somewhere? If not, would anyone be in a position to estimate how far up the ranking ladder I might realistically be able to climb?

Thanks a bunch, everyone.

I am in a similar situation, and would be really grateful to hear any feedback you may have received to your question. Thank you and hope this finds you well.

Sorry bud... my circumstances changed shortly after the post and I have not pursued it further. Maybe in another year or so! But I never got a good answer to the question.
