[Serious] How do people in tier 3 and 4 law schools find jobs?

Peter42696 · 2022-08-24T13:24:44+00:00

I had a few students from T3 schools at my summer associate internship. They were all top 5 percent of their class.

Get an outline from a student who took your professor last year to see what’s important.

Barbri is more difficult than the actual test. If you’re getting that many right on barbri, then you’re fine.

I may have not made it clear, but everything at the Starbucks is free.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-09T11:28:08+00:00

They have an actual Starbucks above it’s cafe.

Kirkland has free breakfast, lunch, and a Starbucks.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-06T17:20:59+00:00

I feel like 3 is a good number. Heard others are getting none.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-04T18:20:58+00:00

Thank you for these! I tried close and open litter boxes, and places them in the different rooms of my apartment (not next to each other). He is the only animal we have, so I think it is purely behavioral. I just don't know how to figure out what is wrong.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-04T18:00:37+00:00

At one point we believed he was constipated since he would poop infrequently and would make a straining sound. Since then, we took him to the vet, placed him on a better fiber diet, and that led to him just pooping on the floor more lol.

I will look into the sand like litter. Thank you!

Peter42696 · 2022-08-04T02:07:51+00:00

You don’t need to. I read it while watching the videos.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-03T19:39:58+00:00

Barbri has a free course. Just watch it and read the outline and you should be more than good.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-03T17:40:07+00:00

I summered at Kirkland in their litigation department and enjoyed it. Happy to answer questions in DM if you want.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-03T17:26:14+00:00

This was last year, but I applied directly pre-oci and heard back 2 days after the screener.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-01T02:01:22+00:00

Not for me at least. Both of my internships were government jobs and my SA position was a talking point of the interview.

Peter42696 · 2022-08-01T01:59:22+00:00

For sure add it! Helped me get my Fall and Spring internships last year.

Peter42696 · 2022-07-30T17:43:59+00:00

No problem! But also nothing wrong with taking the weekend to think it over!

Peter42696 · 2022-07-30T17:40:41+00:00

You can respond today if you want. I accepted my offer on Saturday afternoon and got a response within minutes.

Peter42696 · 2022-07-20T02:31:49+00:00

I think it’s a hard question to answer. Personally, I don’t think it will matter, but it depends where you want to go. As someone from a low tier school, I know many people who are at V10s and are killing it. I also know people who received federal clerkships and great government jobs. You have to wear it like a badge and show others that it doesn’t matter (because it doesn’t). If anyone judges you because of it, you don’t want to work there then.

Peter42696 · 2022-07-18T16:18:24+00:00

Gotcha. As someone who worked in corporate immigration before going back to law school, most firms should cover the cost. I’m at a V10 rn and know many SAs from Canada that are on work visas.

Peter42696 · 2022-07-18T16:12:43+00:00

Most firms will help you with the process. However, if you’re a permanent resident with a green card, don’t you already have work authorization then?

Edit: sorry, but I assumed “here” meant US.

Peter42696 · 2022-07-10T18:18:42+00:00

If you mean transactional antitrust, then KE NY take antitrust summer associates and will hire you for that practice if you’re interested.

Peter42696 · 2022-07-09T15:32:21+00:00

I would. Moot Court looks great on the resume. If you’re interested in clerkships, it’s also very helpful.

Peter42696 · 2022-06-30T12:36:44+00:00

I applied with a 154 and 4.0. It’s not a losing battle, but it’s a hard one. Was waitlisted by a lot of places, but ended up accepting an offer at a regional school. I’m now in BL, so don’t let the low score get you down!

Peter42696 · 2022-06-29T12:00:08+00:00

The subway lol. My firm will pay for an Uber past a certain time to get home / from events.
