Information was gathered on respondents participation in a variety of organizations and settings including political parties, PTA and other school organizations, College alumni associations, charitable organizations, gender-based organizations, religious organizations, the American Bar Association, community associations, private clubs, and organized sports leagues. A number of questions were asked about the respondent's educational background including the year they received their undergraduate degree, where they earned their undergraduate degree, their cumulative undergraduate grade point average, undergraduate class rank, undergraduate major, whether they went directly to law school, if not, what they did during the interim, where and when they received their law degree, their cumulative law school grade point average, class rank, and other graduate level degrees they held. Respondents were queried on the importance of various factors in their decision to attend law school and what elements of their law school education and preparation helped most in making the transition to their early work assignments as a lawyer and in their professional career. Demographic variables include employment status, personal income, household income, job history, sex, race, age, political party affiliation, parent's nationality, parent's education, parent's occupation the while respondent was in high school, whether anyone in the respondent's family was a lawyer, marital status, spouses occupation, and number of children that live with the respondent for a significant portion of the year.
