OP for this post. I'm applying to another office of GDC.desertlaw wrote:Why not Skadden higher?Anonymous User wrote:Why no GDC?Anonymous User wrote:Could someone help me with my bidding list? Any input is appreciated. 3.53 with a few small point-adding criteria (WE, language, etc.).
These are all NYC firms; I'm filling the rest with firms from secondary markets I have ties to. I kinda ranked the firms in the sequence of how much I want to work there, so it doesn't necessarily correlate with Vault ranking or grade selectivity. Also, I'm leaning towards corporate.

As for Skadden, I feel like if I don't get its preselect or alternative, I don't want it bad enough to use a lottery. But considering it's actually outisde my grade range, should I just take it off my list?
