Yeah. FloRecruit is having issues. It’s nothing to worry about.

Yeah, there's been a weird push in recent years where people just look at Big Law % when choosing schools and say that you should take the scholarship money over prestige.

But as this process is showing, not all big law firms are the same. And they certainly don't consider all the T14 schools the same. I can't help but wonder if I made a mistake in choosing $$$ over a better ranked school :cry:

...I mean they definitely are. They're having CBs with firms and just wondering if/when they'll hear back.

Here, we're not even getting past the screener phase.

That's not true. Lots of people are racking up CBs (see above in the thread: some had 9-11 CBs). There's just a lot of variation this year. Some people are cleaning up, while others are getting 1-3. Looks like the same thing is happening at CLS.
