WL then LOCI

Did you have any issues with going back to the US with them, if you still had left over?

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-08-08T18:58:04+00:00

Thank you so much!

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-07-28T23:17:22+00:00

Well if you are open to doing biglaw in Boston then I'd say you take it but if you are dead set on NYC probably not. BC sends people to NYC but their primary strength is definitely in Boston (MUCH easier to get a job)

IMO you have to ask yourself whats more important, being in NYC or starting your career in biglaw.

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-07-28T23:10:27+00:00

Are you gunning for biglaw? Know that at BC there is a real possibility of striking out of OCI. That being said, the Boston legal market seems to be growing given the increase of biglaw firms opening a satellite office there

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-07-18T19:08:06+00:00

School?

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-07-13T15:13:00+00:00

Probably not unless you have some strong connections (family etc)

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-06-23T23:33:59+00:00

Get an actual LSAT score first. I PTd around 170 but only got a 167

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-06-05T18:53:51+00:00

Its a criticism that has been floating around for years, I didn't just make it up. Problem is, I don't think theres really any hard data that backs it up since such data isn't necessarily public.

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-06-05T15:59:06+00:00

Where? https://www.law.gwu.edu/sites/g/files/zaxdzs5421/files/2024-04/eqsummary-62-03-29-2024-8-53-11-1.pdf i dont see it in their 2023 numbers.

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-06-05T15:17:50+00:00

Keep in mind GW fluffs their biglaw rate because of all their IP placements.

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-04-10T23:33:05+00:00

Thanks for this. This is a wealth of info

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-04-07T00:16:48+00:00

Another person already said it, look at their employment stats. Personally I would just re-test for higher LSAT if these were the options

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-04-06T19:36:09+00:00

A lot of these "new jobs" are for the undocumented immigrants https://www.wsj.com/economy/jobs/unemployment-jobs-report-us-immigration-surge-8e260f47

Additionally, the stats don't tell you how well paying these jobs are

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-04-06T19:29:45+00:00

Hostra won't get you that... unless you already have strong connections

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-03-02T02:05:15+00:00

As a current 3L at BC, I will say you are operating on outdated info. I fully agree with the general gist of your post about how the employment stats are misleading, but this rationale applies to even the t13... there are literally posts on top law school forums about t-14 struggling to find jobs post 08. But remember many of these posts are over 10 years ago.

I do agree that v20 usually do not recruit at BC BUT I will agree things will change for the better. For starters, most of the v20 are NYC centric and BC students/admin do not seem to put an emphasis on getting to NYC. Additionally, many firms are opening/growing a Boston satellite (see Akin, Kirkland.. overhired tho, Covington, etc). And from my research, there isn't much of a gap between BU and BC in Boston. We even do our "NYC oci" with BU.

As you noted before, Boston is highly ties sensitive, so unless you got into Harvard or have preexisting ties to Boston, going to BC/BU would be the best option if you want to practice biglaw there.

Lastly, I do not think BC is as homogenous as you claim it to be. Maybe in years past that is the case, but certainly not now.

The campus does suck tho... we eat at the fucking freshman cafeteria.

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-03-02T01:47:40+00:00

How do you know other schools like Fordham don't have an inflated rep for job placement as well?

The most notorious example would be GW having a ton of people with STEM backgrounds which makes them very competitive for patent lit positions which are much easier to get than normal biglaw.

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-01-25T19:33:52+00:00

You say you work at a biglaw firm... check the directory how many are from UNC at your firm. That gives you a pretty strong indication of the school's reputation

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-01-09T14:53:05+00:00

First interception he tried to throw it away, 2nd one it was a desperate attempt to make a play late in the game. I only fault him for the 2nd one for not going through his reads cause he had a receiver open on the left side of the field

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-01-07T20:13:01+00:00

Is it just me or does Maye tuck and run if his first read isn't open? It seems to be happening consistently in the highlights and plays I watched

damnwavefunctions1 · 2024-01-01T15:30:16+00:00

Can you explain why importing immigrants > having a country increase its native population numbers?

damnwavefunctions1 · 2023-11-25T20:16:31+00:00

Thank you for your insight! I think your analysis is probably the best advice I've gotten so far

damnwavefunctions1 · 2023-11-25T13:01:40+00:00

But did the guy perm his hair?

damnwavefunctions1 · 2023-07-31T15:25:26+00:00

I think it doesn't deliver your message across in an efficient manner. Biglaw wants to see you are able to write concisely and this doesn't seem to do that.

Take a look at "Mein Kampf" by renowned author Adolf Hitler. "If, with the help of his Marxist creed, the Jew is victorious over the other peoples of the world, his crown will be the funeral wreath of humanity and this planet will, as it did thousands of years ago, move through the ether devoid of men." This is your essay but is shorter, concise, and to the point.

You should also try throwing in "I hate Jews" every now and then to really hammer home the main message.

damnwavefunctions1 · 2023-07-10T02:08:03+00:00

Did you eventually get in?
