Competition: Iron Sharpens Iron
At Baylor Law, we don't shy away from competition. We recognize that competition provides law students with valuable training, experience, and feedback.
Internally, every Baylor Law student is required to participate in at least one internal moot court competition and in multiple mock trials during Practice Court. Students also have the option to participate in internal Client Counseling and Legal Writing competitions.
Every year, Baylor Law hosts the ‘Triple Crown’ of intense interscholastic legal competitions: Top Gun, the most challenging mock trial competition in the country; The Closer, Baylor Law’s demanding, invitation-only transactional law competition, and ‘The Paper Chase,’ the most competitive legal writing contest in Texas.
