just to be clear
i am NOT advocating this as a ranking of any kind
i was responding to yomisterd's comment, i was interested in the answer myself so i compiled this
i'm not saying this should affect anyone's decision, or that it's meaningful in any way
this is not a ranking


not a ranking

[yomisterd]

no need for skepticism
the data is all public
why would i make up something that can be easily verified

no but how did you find out CoA

[rpupkin]

TIL that Skadden hires from GULC but not Cornell. Have the seeds been planted for GULC's return to the #13 slot?

[03152016]

oh no this is just v10
sry should have made that clear
i don't think that kind of detailed clerkship data exists publicly

[Tiago Splitter]

Sure hope S&C hired more than 7 people

i just double checked my work b/c that didn't sound right to me
and it turns out there actually was 1 c/o 2013 cornell grad placed at skadden
so cornell's actual number should be 17.1%

well done cornell

btw i posted in part so y'all can correct any mistakes i made, plz let me know if you find any

Not sure how this was compiled but Skadden's site lists one Cornell '13 grad.

Edit. Scooped.

S&C for H should be 22. You missed it in calculations too

it's nlj data, the exact same data they use for "go to law schools"
usually incomplete, which is one of the reasons i shit on that ranking all the time
but gives a broad view
most of the others look right to me
wlrk is super low too, but that's not unusual

are you looking at 2013 data? or 2014?

[redsoxfan1989]

Also S&C's website lists 3 Cornell '13 grads.

Maybe they're all faking it like that kid on Suits.

@redsox

the nlj data, unfortunately, is going to be incomplete, as discussed
if we want to do a deep dive, we can split up and get the info directly from firm sites instead
then we'd really have the full picture

i'm down to do this if others are

[03152016]

hmm it looks like the problem is that s&c number
misterd, redsox, and tiago have all found issues with it (eta: tho i'm not sure where D's number came from)
so maybe that's the only one we need to do manually

[Tiago Splitter]

NLJ just didn't have the number for S&C New York. Bastards didn't respond to the survey/website wasn't updated by the time NLJ went to print.

[03152016]

ah that explains it

if anyone wants to do some research on the s&c site for 2013 ny office grads, plz do and post #s here, i'll add them in
if i have time i'll do a little tomorrow

[Mack.Hambleton]

is that for kirkland NY or chicago?

[yomisterd]

oh shit i'm looking at the 2015 go to law schools interactive data thingy

[cannibal ox]

Is there a NLJ250 link that shows where each firm hired from in 2014? I found one for the c/o 2013 a while back, but I haven't been able to find it again (or one for 2014).

this one is kinda fun

[star fox]

although actually now that i think about it
cornell is probably super nyc heavy
so that probably explains part of it
still, impressive

i'm actually going to re-do this using grade selective firms (as opposed to just v10) when i have the chance
probably this weekend

Don't, it's a giant waste of time. I mean if you want to knock yourself out. But it's just not something that's all that interesting.

If BL + FC isn't a great metric because of self-selection then parsing out data on who the "really prestigious" firms hire is worse.

NLJ Data is fine for this purpose as is.

[03152016]

d are you getting a paywall? i can't get thru
