i don't expect this to be a huge resume boost,and most people who win those competitions have pretty good gpa to begin with.

how do law firms see this? will they think you are a work cow? how does it compare to other activities like being on a moot court team?

a competition held by vermont law, of course, carries little weight, I suppose.

what about essay contests held by big-name organizations, like XXX bar association?
