the percentages still in biglaw are much higher outside nyc |

Date: October 6th, 2013 4:59 PM Author: Wonderful people who are hurt halford The vast majority are in law or "jd advantage" type jobs (compliance, real estate, tax consulting, public policy, fake management jobs at BS companies).
The thing is, most are not "making it" in law. The majority work in small firms doing DUI defense, dog bites, trust and estates, and templated "let's form an LLC" work. |

Date: September 27th, 2014 6:18 PM Author: exciting sanctuary Most people I know (admittedly limited to people from top schools / biglaw / etc) are either still working at a firm (often lower vault ranking but still $150K+), working in house, or doing something else more interesting that seems to pay reasonably well (startups, etc.).
I'm aware of the existence of large numbers of people that got fucked by the law school scam, but personally know very few of them. |

what was their mistake? Are there normal people from CCN range schools getting fucked? |
|
Date: September 27th, 2014 6:28 PM Author: exciting sanctuary At the very bottom of the crash a few years ago, I believe only about 60% of CCN students were landing ok. So, yes, I would have to say quite a few normal people from those schools get fucked.
What was their mistake? Probably being in the weaker half of applicants with other factors working against them (no connections, no useful work experience or background, aspie, short for guys, fat for girls, ugly in either case, etc.) |
