Poast new message in this thread
Date: July 1st, 2009 12:10 AM Author: Judgmental Yarmulke Am applying to LS next cycle. What kinda schools do you see median being safe for a V-100 at that far out? Keep in mind, that would make it 3 years till 2L summer. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1031170&forum_id=2#12129468) |

Date: July 1st, 2009 12:30 AM Author: Judgmental Yarmulke Any helpful responses. I MIGHT have believed CCN.
Edit: T-14 would be nice but isn't that a tad optimistic? |

Date: July 1st, 2009 12:33 AM Author: Walnut becky senate what do you think is the difference for you career-wise between say a V80 firm and an unranked firm that still pays market wherever you're at?
in case that wasn't clear, kill yourself you striver faggot. People like you are why law sucks so bad. |

Date: July 1st, 2009 12:52 AM Author: Walnut becky senate i agree. only an insane idiot would seriously demand that a board like XO tell him what is "safe" for V100 in a few years. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1031170&forum_id=2#12129841) |

Date: July 1st, 2009 12:38 AM Author: Brindle pea-brained circlehead there is no "minimum" or "safe" school. no one knows if biglaw is even going to be around in 3 years (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1031170&forum_id=2#12129715) |

Date: July 1st, 2009 12:40 AM Author: Judgmental Yarmulke Pay market would also suffice. I guess thats what I was asking in the first place. 160 + bonus and all that jazz. Hell, a lot of V-100's are not even doing that any more. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1031170&forum_id=2#12129737) |

Date: July 1st, 2009 12:42 AM Author: Walnut becky senate top half at T6, top third T14, top 10% at a T1, top 5% at any other quasi-decent schools, top three students in your class at a true TTT.
that's as good as anyone could possibly know. now return to your virginal career gunning in peace. |

Date: July 1st, 2009 1:01 AM Author: Metal Tanning Salon Internal Respiration I'm top half at a T6 (knock on wood before last grade) and don't feel safe. You need to bid and interview well.
This question is silly. If I weren't in Law School, I would follow the market until 2013. If the writing on the wall is clear by then that 160k will not exist, go with a scholarship somewhere halfway decent and hope for the best. |

Date: July 1st, 2009 12:57 AM Author: Judgmental Yarmulke So, you are seriously saying that there is no difference between DCGN and MVP at this point? Deciding between ED to Penn and NYU. Prefer Penn for personal reasons, was wondering if NYU gives a big enough boost to justify going there instead. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1031170&forum_id=2#12129896) |

Date: July 1st, 2009 1:05 AM Author: Judgmental Yarmulke Damnit, top half at a T-6 not safe. WTF happens to someone like that if they don't get Biglaw, since midlaw is a mith what is it, shitlaw? I somehow doubt that Mr. 50% at Chicago is going to go work at shitlaw even ITE. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1031170&forum_id=2#12129961) |

Date: July 1st, 2009 1:12 AM Author: Metal Tanning Salon Internal Respiration Nobody is safe ITE. A graduating 3L got a CoA clerkship with a feeder judge (think Kozinski, Wilkinson, Sack), but could not find a firm job in Chicago. Sad, but true.

Date: July 1st, 2009 1:17 AM Author: Judgmental Yarmulke Oh, sweet, suffering Jesus. Hell, my dream was fucking T-14-Median (I like to be conservative)-Biglaw in Phoenix, I thought that was a practical goal.
Might that be cuz they don't want to pay clerkship bonus. just grasping at straws here. |

Date: July 1st, 2009 1:30 AM Author: Flushed fragrant set It's probably b/c firms don't have enough work for the associates they already have and already want them to leave. Why the hell would they want another one? Regardless of their unproven resume (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1031170&forum_id=2#12130245) |

1) GO to Wayne State 2) ????? 3) PROFIT |

Date: July 1st, 2009 1:44 AM Author: Judgmental Yarmulke Unless the ??? is graduate 1st in your class, this is sadly not credited.
And yes, swanky monkey, I agree that it is unlikely, as I said, just grasping at straws. |
