I did bust my ass, however, and I think I am very well prepared to compete against people who went to higher ranked schools.

However.... I would stop wayyyy short of saying I went to a non t-14 bc of my own choice. I freely admit I went to a "ttt" because my grades were horrendous in UG and there were additional issues with my app (causing me to have to write an addendum and discuss various legal/criminal/disciplinary record matters)
If you rocked OCI.... awesome. But going to a ttt over a t-14 is very risky, Ivy undergrad or not. I know dozens of Ivy grads (specifically HYP grads) who go to/went to law school at "TTT" schools. 80% are doing fantastic; 20% are not.

|
Date: January 19th, 2007 1:21 AM Author: vengeful flatulent queen of the night I think the board wisdom is that top students at TTTs still do relatively well.

If you think that T14 = had a lucky day on the lsat!, then this proves your heavy, heavy chip.
EDIT: If you're working in NYC, then your V50 = bottom trash heap of the T14 class. If you're not working in NYC, then this doesn't apply of course. |

I do think that many people at the bottom of the T14 had a lucky day when they took the LSAT or they studied their asses off for it. Either way, good for them. My point is that just because you go to a T14 does not make you automatically superior. I have worked with many T14s in different capacities and the vast majority are neither more intelligent nor do they produce a superior work product. I have, however, interacted with a number of HLS students who, in general, are very intelligent and produce great work.

Date: January 19th, 2007 11:09 AM Author: Onyx boistinker partner "I have worked with many T14s in different capacities and the vast majority are neither more intelligent nor do they produce a superior work product."
That's because coming from a TTT, most of your contact with T14 students is the very, very bottom of the class that is forced to work with T4 students.
Also, if you didn't study for the LSAT, then you're just a retard. That's about the worst excuse in the book for not getting a good score: "I didn't study very much." You're have horrible, horrible judgment if you didn't study your ass off.
But Congrats on your V50 job. You've done very well for your law school, and now you can consider yourself equal to the bottom trash of the T14 =P |
|
Date: January 19th, 2007 5:55 PM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena I didn't realize that editors of the T14 law reviews were in the bottom of the class. I didn't ask them their class ranks, but I just assume if you make it on to the law review (and not a secondary journal) at a T14 you are in the top of the class.
Even at Cravath you will come into contact with a number of TTT (not within your office) but possibly across the table. It is not like we live in a Jim Crow segregated society where there are separate drinking fountains for TTT and T14ers.

|
Date: January 19th, 2007 1:44 AM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena I agree with you. The only problem with your thinking is that at the very top schools, the entire student body has been working their whole life to be in the X%. At a TTT, virtually no one has cared about being in that top portion of the class. Therefore, interacting with normal people on a daily basis has been very good for me and I while I have become much more introverted since I entered law school, I think I will be better off than those at the T14 (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=566063&forum_id=2#7447220) |

Fun includes exercise, spending time with friends, drinking, doing drugs, and skipping classes because you have better things to do with your time on occasion. Just because you didn't spend your entire life gunning for the best law school to get into doesn't mean that you ended up at law school because law school was something to do.

Most people at top law schools went to Ivy UGs where the median GPAs are like 3.5. It does not take much effort at those places to get a 3.6-3.7. Then they studied for a few weeks for the LSAT and got 170+ because they are smart. The vast majority of people at my school are here because it was the path of least resistance to getting a sweet job. Very few have been working hard to be lawyers their whole life, most are just smart and haven't had to work hard. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=566063&forum_id=2#7448063) |

Date: January 19th, 2007 11:00 AM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena And I lived in an area that I really wanted to for three years rather than in some place that I hated just because the school was ranked highly.
If you go to school (regardless of whether it is T14 or TTT) and don't pay a lot of money and you get a good job. Then congrats.
My point is that TTTs are not destined for failure. It is almost entirely within your control. |

I am impressed by the fact that you go to HLS, maybe I wouldn't be if I met you. The majority of HLSers that I have met are very bright and deserve all of the accolades that they receive.
So what is wrong in your life then? Are you unsure about your relationship with your fiancé? Do you feel inadequate to your classmates? Are you trying to make up for all of those years of being made fun of by people at TTTs? I am sure high school was socially brutal and college probably even worse for you. But all of your hard work paid off and you should be happy

Date: January 19th, 2007 11:19 AM Author: black half-breed It's annoying that you can't seem to comprehend what people are saying in this thread. I went to a TTT college and went to HLS. Success story, yay! I had to work hard to get where i was, big fucking deal. The path of least resistance would have been to go Ivy -> HLS. You need to shut the fuck up and realize that people don't really care about your biglaw offer because it happens to the top TTT students every year. EVERYONE KNOWS THIS. You aren't special; you are just at the top of your class. So please, try to take the fucking blinders off and STFU. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=566063&forum_id=2#7448612) |

Date: January 19th, 2007 11:33 AM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena What is annoying is that you can't seem to comprehend the question, "why are you so insecure?"
You seem to care that I got a biglaw offer. You seem very angry about it. |

Date: January 19th, 2007 11:34 AM Author: black half-breed I'm annoyed because this TTT shit belongs on TLS or LSD. Whatever, you are flame anyway, so I don't know why I'm talk to you at all.
P.S. the posters in this thread pretty much pwned you every single time you posted. you might want to go back and read it. |

Date: January 19th, 2007 11:42 AM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena Again, not a flame. I just can't believe that people on this board have such narrow vision that they can't believe someone from a TTT, top 25%, and LR can get biglaw.
Please give me an example of me being "pwned."
I posted on this board because people like you are here who can't believe that someone like me could get the same job as you.
Again, why are you so insecure? What is wrong in your life? |

You'll always have TTT stamped on you; and while, yes, it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, it does to you. |

Date: January 19th, 2007 10:05 AM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena Until Summer after my first year I didn't even know that firms paid 125k (now 145) to first year associates, so I don't think my hard work was "fear-driven." I would have been very happy graduating and making the median salary from my law school.
You are missing the whole point about my feelings for my TTT. I am very proud of my TTT. I think it produces, on the whole, more well adjusted lawyers then most other law schools |

No you're not. |

Date: January 19th, 2007 3:19 PM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena Why do you say that? I think it is a great school, and I talk it up all the time (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=566063&forum_id=2#7450218) |

Exactly. |

Date: January 19th, 2007 3:49 PM Author: cerise school cafeteria blood rage Only if I were insecure would I talk it up, hence my hypothetical belief that it has a space to be talked up to. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=566063&forum_id=2#7450419) |

Date: January 19th, 2007 10:12 AM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena If flame = not true, then this is not a flame.
Why is it so hard for most of you to believe that people from TTTs can get good jobs. I actually believe the majority of TTT students don't get good jobs is because they don't apply themselves to the task of getting a job. If they did, many (not most) could get biglaw |

Date: January 19th, 2007 10:49 AM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena Considering I don't even know what a flame is, I wouldn't think this is a flame.
You do not explain why it is so hard for you to believe this post |

I don't know why you are trying to guess the school I go to, I already admit that I go to a TTT (not a second tier or fourth tier), so your insults will not really prove anything |

Date: January 19th, 2007 11:38 AM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena While I admit that some of it was luck. The vast majority was hard work, and I am not talking about the work that I put in to do well at law school. I am talking about networking, contacting people, reapplying for jobs 3L that I was denied at the year before, mass-mailing, and finding out what firms have hired from my law school. This summer I met with a ton of alumns from my undergrad and law school who were biglaw grads, and I personally connected with some of them. As a consequence, they helped get my name to the top of the pile. It is not all that much luck, much more hard work. Most TTTs just don't put much effort into the job search and expect a job to fall out of the sky like they do for most T14ers.

Date: January 19th, 2007 5:58 PM Author: Aphrodisiac brass corner striped hyena The T14ers will spend thier lives trying to prove that their as good as other T14ers and the TTTs that the work with. If you want to make partner or work your way up at DOJ or other Gov't agency then you will constantly be trying to prove that your better then everyone else. Sounds pretty stressful - it is - ever seen how many attorneys are bald by their mid-40s? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=566063&forum_id=2#7451220) |
