No offers yet for two of the firms. Snail mail dings from the other two.

West Coast was just death imo. I had around 20 interviews and zero callbacks.

Top 20-25%, some WE, no LR (secondary journal). 15 CBs--went on 8 and will do 1 more, canceled the rest. Offers from 3 so far, declined one of those offers and withdrew myself from consideration from one of the CBs. On hold with one firm (CBs at 2 offices) and waiting on two others (been two days for one, more than a week for the other). Focused mainly on LA and one other large non-DC/NY market.

Good luck everyone! Don't get so crazy hung up on being in DC. If you have any remote regional ties to smaller markets, now is the time to work those.

I'm relaxed and confident, and I joke around - well-played humor goes over very well with the right people.

Being nice to look at doesn't hurt, either. I'm not at all surprised that people in the attractive/athletic crowd are swimming in callbacks, or at least have more than their grades would warrant.
