To all my LR, K&E, killer personality friends demolishing oci, please be considerate and remember your fellow classmates might be waiting for you to turn down your additional callback or offers.

its unfair to expect people to turn down callbacks until they have a offer from a preferred firm

Is it really unfair to ask people with over 10 callbacks to drop firms that are at the bottom of their list?

As soon as they have an offer then its fair to ask. Until that point, it isn't. They have the right to act in their own best interest.

And even then, they should be able to go check out all the firms that called them back. They could actually end up liking one they would dropped, or even end up having it be the only offer they get (unlikely as that is).

Let's not have this descend into another U Chi argument that eats up 5 pages of this thread. At the end of the day, some people think it's fair to maximize self interest and others want people to be especially considerate. You can do both of you can do either or neither. Let's just leave it.

I know someone who had 13 callbacks and only two offers last year. Do not turn down any callbacks until you get an offer. Maybe if you have a ridiculous number of callbacks (10+) with near 100% cb -> offer firms, consider turning down a cb, but only do it because you don't want to do the additional callbacks, not out of a sense of duty to your classmates.

But, if you get a callback from a firm you prefer less than a firm you already have an offer with, turn down the callback. Being treated to a flight + nice lunch/dinner is not worth the potential cost to your classmates.
