is that higher, lower, or about what you expected? it's slightly higher than i would have expected. i thought YLS's yield was 90% or more. wonder how many turned them down in favor of another law school and how many just stayed in their jobs or went to grad school in something else. |

|
|
Date: July 20th, 2018 12:33 AM Author: 180 flickering affirmative action Well, they wouldn’t deduct from your monthly draw bc that’s mostly for living expenses. Deducting from your final distribution would make more sense. But either way it’s dumb bc it’s not like you are really purchasing a percentage of the business as you would in any other business with a buy-in because biglaw buy-ins Rand to be far less that the value of your stake.
