2010 U.S. News Quality Assessment Rankings

I previously blogged the two quality assessment components in the 2010 U.S. News Law School Rankings:

• Academic Peer Assessment, based on reputation surveys sent to the dean and three faculty members at each school, which counts 25% in the U.S. News methodology.
• Lawyer/Judge Assessment, based on reputation surveys sent to various lawyers and judges, which counts 15% in the U.S. News methodology.

The Quality Assessment Ranking weights the Academic Peer Assessment and Lawyer/Judge Assessment according to the U.S. News methodology (62.5% and 37.5%, respectively):
