Thank you. I hope you receive equally good news soon, too.Anonymous User wrote:To the above poster -- wow, that is a quick turnaround time. Congrats on the offer!
I suppose that makes sense. I'll keep my fingers crossed for tomorrow then!Anonymous User wrote:Dunno. One law firm actually told me that they won't be making decisions today because of Rosh Hashanah (enough lawyers take it off I guess). But I still hope we get phone calls.Anonymous User wrote:Hoping there will be some movement today. The wait is stresssful!
This reminds me of the Off-Campus Consortium announcement where BC/BU/the other schools announced that they were canceling the SF program.Anonymous User wrote:What those of us at BC who don't get offers have to look forward to -
"Hello Class of 2014:
Please note that the Beyond OCI program originally scheduled for this Wednesday has been POSTPONED. We will notify you when we have rescheduled the event.
Thank you!"
I actually probably wouldn't have attended anyway. It's just the idea of them not caring enough to do it when they scheduled it because it is a room full of people not in the top 10% of the class. BC's sessions like this are never helpful - "apply to government, apply to small firms, use your versatile JD to apply to high-level non-legal jobs" - the first two are the obvious next step, and the third one is a jokeAnonymous User wrote:This reminds me of the Off-Campus Consortium announcement where BC/BU/the other schools announced that they were canceling the SF program.Anonymous User wrote:What those of us at BC who don't get offers have to look forward to -

Sorry about that. I hope they schedule it quickly.
Keep your hopes up. I withdrew from a number of Boston firms today (I was in the limbo pile I think), and others are probably, too, which means you may hear something soon.Anonymous User wrote:"I am not aware of Boston firms calling to reject but I could be wrong. I am nervous to get back to my apartment and check my mailbox."
Same. If I am having a really rough day I don't even check my mail because I know that at best it will just be a bunch of junk mail, and at worse my dreams of working at a $160K firm job (or even a $145K at this point) will be smashed.
does anyone know if Edwards Wildman pays market?Anonymous User wrote:Edwards Wildman offer today.
$145K. I honestly don't see a distinction, but I have never made anywhere close to that amount of money in my life.Anonymous User wrote:does anyone know if Edwards Wildman pays market?Anonymous User wrote:Edwards Wildman offer today.
