Date: June 17th, 2009 8:03 PM Author: Chest-beating trailer park electric furnace 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.

But in NYC, you should have a good shot at Debevoise / PW / WGM. DPW, Cleary, and CSM are reaches. |

On the brightside, we are now taking applications for two new positions! And to answer your question, yes we do offer substantial loan repayment assistance. We can also "negotiate" with your lender to obtain a better interest rate. |
