Re: Where do you wanna end up?
Big law in Cali (open to which city but prob LA) NYC, and I'm toying w/ the idea of Texas (Dallas, Austin) even though I don't remember Tx when I lived there 18yrs ago, but I'll prob stay stuck in Atl . Then I want to work for a boutique firm once i get out of debt and ultimately end up in academia at a major university teaching courses like literature and the law for example!

I took a Law & Lit class as an undergrad and it was the reason I decided to go to law school. That's an excellent aspiration Bella!bella16 wrote:Big law in Cali (open to which city but prob LA) NYC, and I'm toying w/ the idea of Texas (Dallas, Austin) even though I don't remember Tx when I lived there 18yrs ago, but I'll prob stay stuck in Atl .

Re: Where do you wanna end up?
The plan right now is Penn Law --> Philly
But if I don't get in there, or if some other school gave me a sweet offer, It would go other school---> NYC---> Philly after a few years

As for me, I wanna end up practicing in Dallas.
What about everyone else? NYC? LA? The Bay? Any other Dallas-es?

Re: Where do you wanna end up?
Florida Big(ish?) law generally... not sure if Miami specifically though... Maybe Tampa/Orlando.
Then, ideally, being a judge down the road.

Re: Where do you wanna end up?
Most likely North Florida for me, Chicago or DC would be my first choices, all things being equal. A friend of mine whole was a retired attorney just went back to work full time at a huge law firm. He is 75. I guess maybe Big Law will hire some older attorneys. However, I have no legal experience so it will probably be a boutique law firm for me.

In the U.S.? NYC, Washington D.C., Chicago or Boston - though I hear that the Pacific Northwest is pretty nice.
Thinking BIG? Amsterdam, Brussels, SE Asia, Central America.

Re: Where do you wanna end up?
Yeah, I went on a tour the Friday before last and really liked it! In-state tuition plus a scholarship also really won me over. I actually feel wanted every time I talk to Admissions staff, director of Admissions, etc.. No other school is acting like they really want me to attend like Georgia at this point. Or maybe I just can't get over good ol southern hospitality lolteaadntoast wrote:Who knows?bella16 wrote: mmm Brussels. Tea are you applying to UGA?

I'm in an apartment complex in Sonoma County. To get there, take either highway 101 or 37, depending on where you're already at. =)tempurabanana wrote:A villa in Tuscany or Sonoma/Napa.

+1. I haven't heard from University of Washington or Seattle U yet... if I get into SU but not UW it's going to be a very difficult decision between going to law school where I feel like I ought to be, or staying out here in my east coast exile.bgc wrote:I honestly believe that the Seattle area is the best place in the world.teaadntoast wrote:I hear that the Pacific Northwest is pretty nice.
