Am applying to LS next cycle. What kinda schools do you see median being safe for a V-100 at that far out? Keep in mind, that would make it 3 years till 2L summer.

I would literally crack you in the face with a frying pan as hard as I could if you were right in front of me.

Any helpful responses. I MIGHT have believed CCN.

Edit: T-14 would be nice but isn't that a tad optimistic?

what do you think is the difference for you career-wise between say a V80 firm and an unranked firm that still pays market wherever you're at?

in case that wasn't clear, kill yourself you striver faggot. People like you are why law sucks so bad.

i agree. only an insane idiot would seriously demand that a board like XO tell him what is "safe" for V100 in a few years.

Pay market would also suffice. I guess thats what I was asking in the first place. 160 + bonus and all that jazz. Hell, a lot of V-100's are not even doing that any more.

top half at T6, top third T14, top 10% at a T1, top 5% at any other quasi-decent schools, top three students in your class at a true TTT.

that's as good as anyone could possibly know. now return to your virginal career gunning in peace.

I'm top half at a T6 (knock on wood before last grade) and don't feel safe. You need to bid and interview well.

This question is silly. If I weren't in Law School, I would follow the market until 2013. If the writing on the wall is clear by then that 160k will not exist, go with a scholarship somewhere halfway decent and hope for the best.

Of course. Microsoft will hire a few local guys to do their big corporate deals. Bill will ask around.

So, you are seriously saying that there is no difference between DCGN and MVP at this point? Deciding between ED to Penn and NYU. Prefer Penn for personal reasons, was wondering if NYU gives a big enough boost to justify going there instead.

Damnit, top half at a T-6 not safe. WTF happens to someone like that if they don't get Biglaw, since midlaw is a mith what is it, shitlaw? I somehow doubt that Mr. 50% at Chicago is going to go work at shitlaw even ITE.

Nobody is safe ITE. A graduating 3L got a CoA clerkship with a feeder judge (think Kozinski, Wilkinson, Sack), but could not find a firm job in Chicago. Sad, but true.

Oh, sweet, suffering Jesus. Hell, my dream was fucking T-14-Median (I like to be conservative)-Biglaw in Phoenix, I thought that was a practical goal.

Might that be cuz they don't want to pay clerkship bonus. just grasping at straws here.

It's probably b/c firms don't have enough work for the associates they already have and already want them to leave. Why the hell would they want another one? Regardless of their unproven resume

Unless the ??? is graduate 1st in your class, this is sadly not credited.

And yes, swanky monkey, I agree that it is unlikely, as I said, just grasping at straws.
