How much does internship experience help at Top 14 Schools?

Specifically business experience at a recognizable firm (e.g. MBB Consulting or Bulge Bracket Investment Banking)?

It doesn't seem to make a huge difference in admission cycles when applicants actually worked there full time.

This question has been asked love and over again. It's certainly helpful, but I don't think you should do an internship, especially if it's unpaid, because you think it will increase your chances of getting into a certain law school. Do it because you want to figure out which career path is right for you.
