Re: Top 5% CCN, top ?% HYS?
It seems a little hyperbolic to say that not having as good a chance as HYS students at the extremely narrow subset of jobs that put you in line for a SCOTUS clerkship, which by definition only a very very small number of people ever will get, is putting a huge dent in career prospects. If not getting a SCOTUS clerkship is a huge dent in career prospects, most of us should give up now.

Garland flatly refuses to hire CCN on down. Kavanaugh isn't as explicit but also won't. That's the 2 top feeders automatically gone if you go to CCN.

There's no denying HY confer a measurable advantage in the feeder-SCOTUS race (esp HLR), as everyone here is saying. But your statements are both demonstrably false, as are nearly all categorical claims of this nature. http://www.law.virginia.edu/html/alumni ... clerks.htm; http://weblaw.usc.edu/who/faculty/direc ... ilid=71272.
Moreover, kavanaugh is well known as a polarizing conservative, and you wouldn't want to jump on that ship without particular (less popular) ideological inclinations. Actually, top feeders in the Roberts court are garland, kozinski and wilkinson. Kozinski draws from CCN regularly: http://www.law.nyu.edu/news/scotus_clerks_2012; http://www.law.columbia.edu/media_inqui ... lerks-2014. As does Wilkinson (with lots of love to UVa). Katzmann, another big feeder, always has former NYU or CLS students.

Coming to this late, but wanted to point out that this is absolutely false. Garland recently had a UVA grad who went Garland->Bristow->Breyer.Anonymous User wrote:Garland flatly refuses to hire CCN on down. Kavanaugh isn't as explicit but also won't.
