Personally, I think the most important thing for you to do is try to find a job that can lead to full time, post-graduate employment. Taking an unpaid job that has no possibility of permanent placement seems like throwing in the towel, but that's just my opinion. If you don't have a full-time job as a 3L and you have great grades, then go for a post-grad clerkship and try to secure a full-time job after that. But I don't see working for a judge being helpful for most people as a 2L.

And yeah, I think in general it is hard to transfer here, unless you are a native of St. Louis coming back home. You sacrifice a lot (grades, possibly law review and scholarships, etc.) and are basically treated like a median student here. It is a tough situation. Is there a particular market you're targeting?

Specific market? Not anymore, as beggars can't be choosers. I've plastered New York and New Jersey and have had little success (mass mail, cold calling). I should probably make another trip to CSO and see what they recommend. I'm keeping an open mind about location and will go wherever opportunity is.

Truth be told I'm a Ravens fan, but Clay Matthews is the shit.

Anyone going to Tom's tonight? I will be there crushing college sodas.

8 Ball Says: Outlook good.

lol at the idea of not going to bar review. can't wait to get back to going out 4 nights/week in january though

I think that is one of the biggest problems with Washu. Our recent rise has meant that a lot of WUSTLers are only in junior positions either being a junior partner or associate. I've noticed that people tend to like people that are similar to themselves. In a law firm, one of the easiest things people tend to connect with is the name of your law school. This sometimes hurts WUSTLers cuz we just don't have many WUSTLers in hiring positions.

0Ls: WUSTL is my top choice, admitted students day was off the hook!

2Ls: I can't find a job.

January? I did this last week. Wed-Sat. May be on track to do the same this week.

2LOLOLOL.

This is misreading the situation. The rankings are just a marketing tool, pure and simple. they have zero to do with who makes partner. Exceptional people make partner, no matter the school.

This guy do this often?

Nonstop, and EVERYWHERE

He's just unreal. He does nothing but butt into people's threads and change the topic to whatever he sees fit.

I'm all for healthy pessimism and trying to talk people off the law school ledge (I think Mr. Anon is "right," in a perverse sense of the word), but he is just intentionally annoying about it.

If there was a poll of the worst posters on TLS, he would easily finish in the top 5.
