Foreign students may apply to law school in the states, and some schools may also require a TOEFL score in addition to LSAT. However, I heard competition is great for foreigners since law schools only allocate 5% maximum of the entering class to them. After graduation, foreigner can sit for bar exam, but as for job prospects, all depends on your school, grades, and most importantly, your English. |

I dont think English is important issue here. If your English is bad, not only you'll have no chance to gradute, but even to pass LSAT with more than 50% score. School's ranking and grades are not enough. I've heard that there is a law prohitibing foreigners from practicing law in US.
As to 5% of seats allocated to foreigners, it sounds very unrealistic. Can anybody esle confirm it?
