Federal Judicial Clerkships
Hey folks,
I have been trying to find ranking information specifically related to the percentage of law school graduates from T-14s who become federal judicial clerks. The best source I could find was a top-ten list of schools published in 2009 from US News and World Reports: http://www.usnews.com/education/blogs/c ... kship-jobs
Does anyone have any sources for more recent info?
Thanks!

You can look into employment statistics like this for each individual school on LST's clearinghouse.

Re: Federal Judicial Clerkships
Extending past HYS is meaningless. Between Cornell (8%) and Duke (11%) is basically a wash, and schools fluctuate by +/- 2% regularly. E.g. I think Chicago was 13% for C/O 2010.
