If not flame ...

no math at all in litigation, very little if any in transactional. Tons of reading.

As best I can tell good research and writing skills are the most important components of biglaw success.

Math? Probably not much. Accounting? Probably even less than math. Reading? A lil bit.

Considering you obviously can't read or comprehend forum rules (for the second time tonight regarding the SAME topic: Wrong forum, read this: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=170600), I don't think Biglaw is in your future.
