Date: September 9th, 2010 9:34 AM Author: Lemon rehab You'll have a hard time in DC unless a prof calls. You have a decent chance with those grades in markets outside NY, etc. Focus on the Judges where your school is located. The recent trend (at least with Judges in the areas I clerked) is to have a District Court clerkship first. Did you apply to those?

Date: September 9th, 2010 11:28 AM Author: exciting station I do have a prof calling one judge on the DC Circuit, so we will see...
I did apply to district courts as well.

Date: September 10th, 2010 11:29 AM Author: Lemon rehab You should have no problem with those stats in district court (except maybe in SDNY).
I had very similar stats to yours and was able to land a District Court clerkship and a COA clerkship. Good luck! |

Date: September 12th, 2010 10:17 PM Author: dull fortuitous meteor Will likely need to do a district court clerkship first; then you will be a strong candidate (although D.C. Circuit is still a reach).
Let us know how it turns out. |

but DC circuit is basically impossible with your grades. |

Date: September 13th, 2010 9:14 PM Author: dull fortuitous meteor I received two interview offers after the rush... one about five days out, and another two months later (I'd withdrawn my applications by that point because I'd accepted my clerkship, but I guess that judge had it printed from OSCAR).
