Date: January 21st, 2015 7:51 PM Author: Misunderstood jap transfer to yale. try to get out of law. other than that, if you can cop a supreme court clerkship you can probably have a career in lit, but lit sucks for 99% of people. or you can just get a v10 transactional job, which is probably the best youll be able to do, then let your grades slip in the next couple of years. all your options fucking suck--drop out now if you don't want to waste your life.

Date: January 24th, 2015 10:44 AM Author: Diverse Talking Multi-billionaire Round Eye Wrong, but only transfer to HYS. DO NOT transfer to any other T14 unless you (1) have an opportunity to make law review, and (2) are able to use your transfer to your advantage (ask how many transfer students got honors the prior year -- at my school it was A LOT because the school only counted 2L and 3L grades, which are mostly not curved).
If you do transfer, you'll also have to work hard to build relationships with professors who can support your clerkship applications. |

Date: January 21st, 2015 8:20 PM Author: sooty tanning salon depends on your goals.
if you want to make decent money with decent hours for the vast majority of your career ($250k+, 40 hours/week), go to a big firm and do IP transactional or other desirable in-house type area and then go in-house after 4-5 years.
if you're gunning for prestige, obviously get the best clerkships and then go work for some prestigious boutique or whatever but you'll prob hate your life. |

more guys i know seem to be getting rich in that younger than in finance. |

Date: January 24th, 2015 11:14 AM Author: scarlet library toilet seat Don't transfer. Free ride is worth saving the 100k it will cost for 2L and 3L year.
Where do you want to live long term? Start now lining up a COA clerkship nearby and a SA gig at the best firm where you want to be. Spend your 1L summer in your end goal location. If your end goal is someplace other than NY, SF and maybe LA and DC, you can afford to buy a nice place after a couple or few years working and you can settle into a comfortable BIGLAW career.
The best advice I can give you is to keep gunning until law school is over. While good grades from a T14 will get you biglaw, T14, 3.9 (summa/high honors especially), law review and COA clerkship makes you a superstar and stays with you for your whole career. |
