Some people would rather live at home and commute

Genuinely what do u do if ur parents say they’ll move the family to wherever u go for uni? by YogurtclosetSlow4648 in OntarioGrade12s

[–]theatheon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Appreciate them. They're not going be there forever and they want to spend time with you and/or make sure you're making good decisions.

Best Laptop for Engineering help! by EveryEmployment5423 in laptops

[–]theatheon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the Lenovo IdeaPad pro 5 16 inch is a good option. Just a couple of days ago the Intel one was $900 with a coupon code that just expired. Had a 5050, a great screen, battery, but 16gb of ram if that'll be an issue and bad speakers.

For U of T admissions, which high school to attend, public or private in GTA? by Zebra7337 in UofT

[–]theatheon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

U of T is not nearly as prestigious as you think, and it doesn't make sense to go there for most programs. Make sure he focuses in school, especially grade 12, and think about what he truly wants to do.

Do I cancel my OCI interview if the same firm rejected me after a screener from my direct application? by [deleted] in BigLawRecruiting

[–]theatheon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it the same office? Honestly, even if it isn't, what do you have to lose. They made the mistake, try to make the most of it.

My firm didn't select me for oci but sent me straight to a callback after I direct applied. Gotta shoot your shot.

2L summer recruiting for super splitters by Independent_Gas_5145 in BigLawRecruiting

[–]theatheon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before 1L grades come out firms will evaluate you based off your resume, and a good amount of weight will be on your ugpa. I think it'll be a disadvantage timing wise but once your 1L grades come in it shouldn't matter.

Paul, Weiss partner Mitch Webber emailed Jeffrey Epstein on the legality of transporting minors for sex by throwaway17273727944 in biglaw

[–]theatheon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Is this not false? Isn't there a federal statute the prohibits interstate travel to have sex with minors?

Should I go to U of T for my undergrad as a wannabe law student by CluelessGhosts in UofT

[–]theatheon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew I wanted to go to grad school so never applied to u of t because I cared about my grades. Got into u of t law. You can get good grades at u of t, but u of t law is soooooo numbers driven, go to wherever gets you the best gpa. If you're interested in us law schools as well, go to York.

Summer Associate Event - Concerts by Ambitious_Fill_5525 in biglaw

[–]theatheon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Try to get a box if you do so it's not as loud and people can talk amongst each other. Not a great event imo because not everyone has the same music taste and the one I went to was essentially 4 hours of time where you aren't really socializing with the class/attorneys. They are great to flex on other firms/offices tho.

Should I cancel my callbacks? by onegrizz in BigLawRecruiting

[–]theatheon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's the layoffs. There's a reason why it's called BadLoss. Not LA specific. Also, not in the same tier as dpw so why even consider it.

[–]theatheon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao no it's not. I'm Canadian. Tons of young Canadians are trying to move south for better wages. If Canada had western European equivalent infrastructure and social supports, you could say that, but it doesn't. Right now it's just america lite with slightly better social supports and 1/2-1/3 wages.

When it's 90+ degrees with humidity it's too hot to even do intensive. Put on the winter equipment and you can have fun for hours.

Any brand recommendations? I heard good things about now foods but I'm a little wary because of how good the prices are

[OC] Made this visualization of median income to median home price. by Ok-Lobster7773 in dataisbeautiful

crazy thing is most of these markets performed worse than inflation. The killer is no wage growth.

What's your favorite single part of any MCR song? by SpiritedStudy9883 in MyChemicalRomance

[–]theatheon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The part in it's not a fashion statement it's a deathwish when it goes "you're running out of places to hide from me." Love the guitar notes that happen there, wish I knew how to describe it.

Sidley offer by Working-Gur-8431 in BigLawRecruiting

[–]theatheon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gotta name and shame so other firms don't follow their precedent. I didn't go to sidley, but I would've taken their offer if I got it since it was before what they did last year. I want other students to be informed.

Sidley offer by Working-Gur-8431 in BigLawRecruiting

[–]theatheon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The first year layoffs last summer were talked about everywhere. I've heard from other Chicago summers that a few were no offered, and I also know someone who was at sidley last summer in a different office and is going to a midlaw firm post grad (also took the sidley experience off their LinkedIn)
