Any CBs/dings from Akin Gump (DC)? Anyone know anything about their timeline?

Yeah.. I got an Akin CB last week

Who was your interviewer?

[Anonymous User]

Dinged by Hogan DC just now.

Has anyone heard from Sidley (DC), Wiley, Jones Day (DC) or Wilkie (DC)?

Just got a Jones Day DC CB. Did my screener yesterday.

Ip people: anything at all from Kirkland (ny), Weil(dc), christieparker, leydig, latham(ny)?

+ any knobbe cbs from Ca?

I don't fucking get the amount of silence I'm getting. Decent grades, EE but not a single callback from eiw yet (thankfully, did have multiple from Loyola) Do firms not realize that tttransfer students are fucking retards?

just relax. i agree that the silence is unbearable, but, based on last year's thread, it is likely that a lot of firms will be making contact throughout this week. the fact that you haven't heard anything yet doesn't mean that much.

Don't know what could possibly be your problem.

OP was unnecessarily harsh, but your response is irritating. Making top whatever % at a school surrounded by people who barely broke 160 (if even that) on the LSAT, and failed academically throughout their entire lives, is not comparable to median at any T14; and the fact is that transfer students with technical backgrounds likely are siphoning off SOME (albeit a small proportion) jobs from GULC IP students, since transfers can leverage their technical skills in addition to Latin honors at their awful 1L school to prove that they can "work hard," when the more likely truth is that they were the only people of even average intelligence at their old schools.

Quality trolling right there.

Has anyone tried to send emails to show continued interest to those firms with complete silence?

[Anonymous User]

Has anyone heard back from Latham SF, Sheppard Mullin SF, Kirkland SF, Wilson Sonsini (Palo Alto), and Morgan Lewis (SF)? Thanks!

IP people are the worst. They get lower grades but more cbs and screeners

[Anonymous User]

Davis, Polk's ding by email. not surprised at all.

Probably has to do with our intellectual aptitude for the study of something more profound than Native American pottery. That, and we generally murder you luddites on the LSAT.

alright—let's keep it classy, georgetown.

Can we move on? Getting tired of the whole IP, transfer argument.

IP or not, continue mailing firms until you have an offer. Don't rely on EIW. So long as you are at least medianish, you will almost assuredly get a few CBs that way. If you are IP, then lower, significantly sub-median GPAs may also suffice (for PROSECUTION positions, that is).

Any thoughts on whether it is better to set up callbacks that include lunch versus those that don't, earlier versus later interview times, etc.?

I tend to spill on myself so I took the afternoon slot.

It's better to set up callbacks that don't require lunch because doing so shows the firm that you're abstemious and cognizant of its limited resources. I'd say doing so increases your chances of an offer by 45.65%.
