EDIT: REALLY appreciate the help. I better get set for dings at these firms and hope for NY. Maybe Stroock will take a shot on me

I understand if you don't feel comfortable, but would you email me your list? I would feel much more comfortable if our school would give us something like this.

I mean like the entire list. I did TX and NY. We have 50 bids so I didn't want to ask you to list ALL of them. But I totally get it if it's supposed to be super secret.

is boston your preferred market?

I've got a similar situation. I'm using just over half of my bids on my home market and have remaining bids I want to use. So I'm going with NY/DC as my backup, but problem is that they are major markets and I'm thinking my bids will be wasted since they are for popular/top firms. Haven't talked to OCS yet.

to be truly prestigious you must require LSAT score on resume.

Better yet, in lieu of transcript, ask for LSAT score report.

Thats my intuition as well. (Although I do think you should cut out one of your two markets).

I just dont know whether OCS is talking out of their ass, or they know something we dont know.

also--smaller firms = smaller classes. ITE, they might be able to fill their class of 9 with solid GPAers.

I dont know if the ITE increase in selectivity will cause firms to be choosier with GPA or personality/fit.

Regarding the "low" gpa for the firms: do you guys think it means that anyone who meets the "low" will be in contention, or are the "low" gpa people almost always URMS or have connections?

I'm kinda curious because my GPA is just high enough to meet the "low" for most firms, but way below the median. Wondering if that means I'm fucked at all these places or whether I'm in the ballpark and can get a callback if I don't mess up the interview.

high enough to meet low, but below median for most firms = 3.2-3.3 range?

Better safe than sorry. If you do your DD, though, I'd imagine that you could definitely cull your list down to 30. I'm having a problem coming up with 30 firms where it wouldn't be a blatantly wasted bid.

Right, somebody always has to be "the one". Im sure that the "low" that is currently listed was one of those mavericks who looked at the info and said, fuck it.

What's the deal with UM strongly recommending that we keep our GPAs off our OCI resume?

Based on my GPA, I estimate that I'm top 25%ish (if not higher), and in light of my failure to get on any journals, it seems to me that it might be a good idea to have on there. Why does Career Services seem to discourage that?

You're not going to get any interviews based on your GPA, and the employers are going to have your transcript anyway, so what would be the point of putting it on there? You'll just look like a douche.

2 - NYC/Chi or NYC/La

20 NYC - 10 Chi/LA

No

Yes

And for those going by the low GPA #, my career services officer told me that those are almost always URMs.

If you're sub 3.0 ITE and not an URM, you're pretty much screwed for OCI. Mass-mailing will be important.

Is this rare? Not recommended?

Prior to my talk with OCS, which advised me to bid home, I was bidding on NY and DC. And all the firms that were interviewing for NY and DC, I was just planning on signing up for both, you know? Even like Cadwalader, which hasn't hired a single person in DC from Mich in the last 8 yrs

Was under impression it was latter

Figured it was an easy way to stretch 30 bids into interviewing at 45 offices, even if some of thes eoffices had no track record of hiring anyone, let along hiring anyone with this GPA.

It's definitely one slot (and one interview).

But the reason not to bid on all 27 Jones Day offices is fear of seeming too uncommitted.

# of interviews is major concern

Hard to find more Chi firms, and consultant wasn't sure I'd need to. Seems risky though, and OCS would shoot me.

I hate OCS. In so many instances they're being completely ridiculous, leaving the students to separate out what is solid advice and what is alarmist BS. It'd be nice to have a resource we could trust.

I've heard a couple of people with logical reasons for a three-market strategy. Isn't the OCS line that employers will perceive you as uncommitted? If they're not multiple office bids, how do they know?

All DC firms (throwing out some non-oci apps to CA and another small markets).

I'm shooting for NYC and am too scared to do this. My GPA is lower (3.6-3.7) but I'm planning on mixing in a bunch of the crappier NY firms. I think my GPA is above most of the medians, but I'm afraid they are all going to be much more selective this year. With a 3.8-9, I don't think your strategy is stupid though.

nyc here as well.

i'm doing mostly that strategy but not the most prestigious - sullcrom and cravath i'm kind of ignoring...

I'm not quite sure why you value prestige over layoffs, practice area, culture, hours, bonuses, fit, etc. but I don't think you're aiming too high - 30 deep in any market is reaching some pretty unselective firms, and DC is surviving the best of anybody.

I'm kinda dumb, but how is everyone else factoring past layoffs into who they bid for? Are people avoiding firms that have had massive layoffs, or are they thinking house is cleaned now and whoever they hire will be fairly safe since the firm size has already been taken down to a more sustainable size? Are there specific firms people are avoiding b/c of layoffs? Also, does deferred start dates mean they probably wont be hiring this year?

i've thought about this too. seems like firms like latham and orrick can't possibly lay off more associates. but then again, they could dissolve too. i think all firms are going to drastically reduce hiring but those that get offers from oci this year should be in good shape in terms of getting a permanent offer in 2010.

you're basically betting NONE of the people who would do that are going to because of ITE, if you rank them down in the teens or 20s

I meant more what one could discern just from class. Hollywood assured me that from the first day one would be able to tell the top students (or those doomed to a hilarious comeuppance) merely from the quality of their repartee. If you can't trust the movies, what can you trust?

Actually, the two guys I know who got the best grades both complained/bragged about how much work they were doing. One even said that he felt anxious and unhappy if he had any free time. That's not to say I really anticipated their success beforehand, since I tend to doubt the marginal efficacy of grinding. However, even if there's no strong causation effect of that level of diligence, I probably should have realized there'd be a correlation.

Yeah, I am judging selectivity essentially by the posted GPA medians.

I didn't determine the necessity of high bidding by that (if anything, high GPA should scare some people away), but there's a big overlap between selectivity and expected bid competition (mostly to do with Vault rankings/prestige, layoffs, firm stability, number of offices and class size), so that's how it worked out.

I did this too. Do you think the top firms will get that much more selective on GPA ITE? I'm right at the GPA for the highest Chi firms, and I kinda feel like I have a better shot at some of them than the firms with small offices.

How did you guys factor in size of summer class?

Size of summer class was pretty much my strongest factor in ranking. I figure more people will bid on it just because it has a bigger profile and more people will bid on it because they think they have a better chance with a bigger class size, not to mention I personally want to get the interview more.

They made no comments on my bids and suggested I should schedule a phone appointment.

First of all, those grades might be good enough for you to get on in the "grade-on" section. And if you used your MLR note for MJLR, you're probably in great shape; I remember on of the MJLR staff encouraging people not to use their MLR notes because those are typically worse than the LP papers since they're not edited. So it sounds like you're golden.

You might mis-read this. The % listed is a conservative guess of what I think the median GPA offer corresponds to on our curve. E.G. The median GPA at Gibson NYC was a 3.34

Chicago consultant told me no later than mid-August. I told him that I was sending them off at the beginning of August, and he said even better. I don't trust OCS to do shit, so I'll do it myself.

How effective do you think mass-mailing is going to be? Maybe more so in the past, but shit, everyone is doing it this year. It doesn't seem like it's going to help that much.

ETA: If you're spending the summer in one of your targeted markets, you can do that shit now. Sent some off 3 weeks ago, and I've got screening interviews already lined up.

I don't trust OCS to do shit, either, but it just kinda seems that firms would prefer someone that (1) knows how to follow directions and (2) isn't going to flood their inbox. Plus, if send through OCS, it would be in a pile of resumes marked "From Michigan OCS", while resumes sent directly would be in a pile marked "etc".

I mean I don't really know either, so I'd like to hear everyone's opinion on this.

stopped working so hard...also the difference between an A and an A- is often kind of a tossup, unless it's a seminar (which i haven't done), or unless you're clearly a genius (which i'm not). so a 3.85 represents a random tossup of As and A-s

i know someone who is rumored to have a 4.1 or thereabouts...i've never had a class with this person, but i'm sure he/she is very smart. wouldn't necessarily know it just from talking to him/her though. but this person is an extremely hard worker. there's always 1-3 ppl every year who graduate summa. pretty amazing accomplishment. though the bullshit thing about summa is since not all classes at UM are graded on an A+ curve, you basically have to either be so smart as to never get an A-, or specifically pick your classes so that you have a chance at an A+ or two

Since you weren't taking seminars, were you taking those non-1L "1L" courses that 2Ls/3Ls warned were GPA busters? Like Admin, Fed Courts? Because I am hoping to take these classes but not hurt my GPA and it looks like they didn't hurt you...would be good to know. Thanks.

no, i didn't take any of the gunner classes, mostly just stuff i was interested in. if you're doing a journal, take a couple credits of independent study to write a note. also, i've heard a clinic is a good way to keep your gpa up and actually learn shit. i wouldn't take more than one or two of the hardcore classes each semester.

well, i guess there's a slight feeling of prestige, but that's largely tempered by all the extra busy-work you end up doing relative to your friends. the way someone described it to me was that being on a journal is like having a credit card. you incur a huge charge during OCI, and spend the next two years paying it off.

and people on journal (or anyone else in the school that i know of) don't openly discuss GPAs...that would be kind of douchey

i don't know about a waitlist. basically they call, tell you you're on, and then you accept or reject. i accepted right away, but i assume you could probably ask for a little bit of time to decide. but since MLR is the last journal to let ppl know, they probably would want to know pretty soon, since it's not like you're waiting to hear from anyone else. i think the calls are spaced out over a day or two, so anyone who asked for time would probably get a little of it, and if they rejected they would go to the next name down on the list. so yeah i guess there may be an informal sort of waitlist.

there's no bottom-cutoff gpa for LR...i know that it can range pretty low for some people who get on and just happen to be awesome writers. if i had to guess, i would say the average gpa is probably around 3.3 or 3.4 for applicants. so you'd probably need a 3.8+ to grade on (assuming of course your writing entry isn't total shit).

there's a grading rubric, and A,B,C are the only grades, but we can note if someone was on the fringe of a higher or lower grade. i believe 5 ppl grade each entry, and the highest and lowest grade among these 5 is each dropped, and the other 3 averaged. style, content, typos and formatting all affect a grade. in fact mis-formatting could mean disqualification (i wasn't looking for that, because i'm not that anal). i was mostly interested in writing style and whether someone was making a plausible argument. we had a lot of latitude in grading

we were supposed to do 20% As, 20% Cs, and 60% Bs. an A to me was just really well-written. like you could tell the person was smart from reading it. good argument, good writing style, minimum or no errors (typos, etc.). i didn't bump anyone up or down because i disagreed with them, as long as they were persuasive. i'd give a slight edge to creative arguments, because i got bored reading the same stuff over and over. some of the entries really were not good, and those were the Cs.

I agree that they are crazy, but the thing is that if more 2Ls had listened to their advice there might be fewer 2Ls (now 3Ls) who are unemployed/underemployed right now.

He/She's partially right. A lot of folks didn't mass mail in the beginning of the OCI season, and a lot didn't bid enough safety firms.

Agreed. Bidding conservatively won't change the fact that, since so few employers are coming to EIW, we won't get hardly any interviews, and those interviews we do get won't translate into hardly any offers. If only I had gone to law school a few years ago...or waited a few more years...

How many fewer employers are coming? I didn't really notice any difference between who NALP said was coming and who appeared on Symplicity. The only ones that I really noticed were ones that never really could get Michigan students in a good economy. And even those are doing resume collection.

From what my counselor told me, in a normal economy 75% of students got their summer job through OCI. This year, they are conservatively expecting 50% to get them through OCI. That means that the other 25% are just going to have to hustle. The jobs are out there. They just won't necessarily be coming to you. For instance, I started my list of NON-OCI NYC firms and it's at 60 already, and I haven't even gone through Martindale. There are tons of firms out there. People are just going to have to get over not working at a v-100. How much longer is everybody really going to be chasing prestige? That shit is old.

You don't need to wait for OCS, they're definitely going to tell you to go more conservative. I received generic advice to that effect for:

1 - .05 above GPA

3 - at GPA

3 - .1 below GPA

3 - .2 below GPA

I'm spending 27 bids on Chicago, 3 elsewhere. Probably no double-office things, don't want to work in NY. Is it going to be a slaughter at the Holiday Inn in August? More importantly, will someone with between a 3.4 and a 3.5 live through it?

I also had a huge disparity between OCS and the consultant. I seem to recall in that recorded market talk him thinking a 20% hiring decrease, though that was in March. Still, when talking to him just a week or two ago he used a 60% decline as ridiculous hypothetical while scoffing at the idea. He might be right, but he seems to envision much smaller cutbacks than xoxo wisdom.

I think you're fine. I'm also doing Chicago, and if you managed to find 27 bids, you've reached some very unselective firms. I know it's ITE, but your grades are solid. I know you will (we all are), but I really don't think you need to worry.

It's all speculation, but seems like as good of an idea as any. They say 18-22 interviews is (or rather was) average. Scale that back a little to account for fewer employers, and I would guess that anything past 15 or so you get because they simply didn't fill the interview schedule.

I wonder if there will be a lot of yield protection this year. If half the law review interviews at Cadwalader in their ITE panic, the firm isn't going to want to spend a lot calling back 50 people who view them as a last resort, especially with money as short as it is.

OCS is a wuss. they know firms were dropping out like flies after bidding ended, and up until now they didn't inform us. i gave them a piece of my mind today.

yeah, and they haven't taken them off symplicity so no one can tell who is gone.

tell me what they say.

it's also my understanding you don't get your bids "pushed up" either - you lost your #1, you don't get one.

i called yesterday to ask if more firms were dropping out. they said "yes, a few."

i wrote a scathing email to them today, telling them they should be notifying students immediately which firms/offices were no longer attending. they are screwing over students like me who are summering in their target markets and may actually have a chance to line up interviews before going back. their response was they were compiling a list and were going to email students over the new few days. also gave me BS about how it could be a waste of time to contact those firms since them pulling out indicates they're probably not having an SA class or are delaying hiring (not true for firms only pulling out certain offices. truth is no one wants to come out here).

wait a fucking minute---they haven't emailed people when firms students have actually bid on are no longer interviewing?? that is gross incompetence, unprofessional and downright offensive to MLS students.

yeah, i got a DLA piper email today. a lot of offices (not firms) have pulled out of chicago within the past week and i won't be surprised if that's happened here.

how hard could it be for them to move someone's bids up? this whole process could be so fucking easy...

columbia also has the courtesy to email student when firms they bid on have pulled out, without having their hand forced by ATL.

yeah, i don't even want a replacement bid (too much to ask, of course), just for my bids lower than the dropped one to be bumped up. unfortunately it looks like this isn't even going to happen. i plan on calling ocs tomorrow but i fear that the line will be busy...

i'm so screwed. thanks for the update though; now i can spend my phone call bitching instead of asking questions and then bitching.

why do you need to work with them?

i never talked to OCS before this summer, and still they have not been helpful with one single thing.

OCS is generally unhelpful everywhere. just expressing the prevailing sentiment.

yeah, of course, if everyone bitched something would happen but individually it is not in one's interest, so nothing will happen. well fuck 'em anyways, i doubt they do anything for people who strike out at oci
