WUSTL just outside 25% from earlier (LR, drop of NYC experience) update:

Olshan
WilmerHale
Wilkie
Cravath
Blank Rome
Proskauer
Paul Weiss
Schulte
Brown Rudnick (midsize day)

Alternate-ed at Weil, Debevoise and Davis Polk (but I have DPW in Midwest-Cali so I guess I would decline here anyway).

This is a pretty insane haul for someone outside the top 25% (especially Cravath). Most people in that range get maybe a couple of alternates. I kind of want to see your resume now..

VERY close to 25% (off by .01). Hoping something pans out, but I realize it's still an uphill battle from here.

Maybe as early as today. They open as people release individual interviews (if their CSO lets them) or let their CSO know that they are transferring. Also, I would expect a lot of movement on Friday since that is the deadline to sign up.

Is it harder to convert an alternate screener into a callback, considering they weren't that keen on you in the first place?
