It honestly depends what kind of job you want. Trying to get Biglaw from T25 isn't even guaranteed. If you aren't the top10-15% of your class at a T50, you might not get a Biglaw and end up making 50k a year in a small firm.
@"J.H. Song" as far as I know the T14 refers to schools that are or were at one time in the top10. UT was actually ranked 14th one time but it was not called a T14 since it was never in the top10.
