Dear Fellow Listserv Members:
An ECUPL student sent me the following ranking of Chinese law schools. Every five years, the PRC Ministry of Education issues it rankings. These latest rankings are based on:
- the quality of the students (probably their scores on the national entrance exam or gaokao, which is like our SAT)
- the stature of the professors determined by publications, quality and amount of scientific research, and reputation
