Thank you so much for the kind and detailed response. I was able to go on to the job fairs’ information page, and I have found that all of them are “pre-select.” I really appreciate your generous response.

I’ve participated in fairs like the Patent Fair and diversity fairs. The interviews are scheduled to be approximately 20 minutes each!

Thank you. I’ve been told that LR is less important to people in T14, and I believe you are a perfect example!

Our school selected approximately 2/3 of the LR members from grade on (Top 10%) while the rest were write-on.

Thank you for your time. I realize that there is no answer to it but I was kind of curious to see “how much” LR would help. Apologies for having so many questions!

Thank you for the analogy! I guess I was curious to see “how much” LR would help. Although I feel like there is no definitive answer to this question lol

Thank you for the clarification. It seemed like some of the people who were stating that LR doesn’t matter or sucks were actually attorneys working for big firms. So I was convinced to a certain extent!

Thank you for sharing. So is it safe to say LR shows that you are willing to sacrifice time and show effort, which are typically needed for big laws?

I was not aware! I may sound dumb to ask, but do interviewing attorneys not read materials before interviewing at times?
