Fslexduck - What's up with New Haven bashing? It's fine for when you're a student IMO, quality of life is pretty good, and it's way cheaper than Manhattan.

OP - actaully sounds like you're getting some decent advice in this thread. Want to re-emphasize this:

Harvard will also make it easier to get an in-house GC position at certain firms, bus dev/corp dev/M&A, venture capital, and a variety of other business roles that people w/ law backgrounds end up doing.

I don't know if that's true on average, but if it is, IMO definitely a "pro" for HLS. I know a ton of lawyers who went into corporate law, and I can only think of a handful who either didn't get bumped off partner track, or just got sick of the work and did something else.
