Date: June 17th, 2009 8:03 PM Author: Translucent Keepsake Machete I'm in the same boat too. Noone's giving any actual advice though. Anything would be helpful because I don't know the difference between any firms. Only thing I know is that firms like Cravath/Weil/Sullivan are pretty much out of range. Other than that, I don't know the difference between a "reach" and "safety" firm.
