yes.
Useful. Thank you for your contribution.
95% of info on firms making offers isn't useful to anyone. People just need to be patient.

OP here: lots of Chi firms have 1L Diversity programs, some are V50 and some aren't.

My interviews were McAndrews and McDermott. Went well. McDermott was 8 people, 2 at a time, 30 min each. McAndrews was 5 people, one at a time, 30 min each. What a long day.
how deep are your chi ties? are you IP?
OP here: if by chi ties you mean like networking, not much. If by ties you mean how much I want to stay in Chi, then the answer is im definitely staying here. Sorry, just unsure on what you're asking even though I see the term "ties" thrown around a lot here.
Yes I'm IP.

Potentially stupid question but if firms have sent out CBs (looking @ Skadden in particular), should people who had screeners but haven't heard back assume they won't hear back anytime soon? I'm still waiting for grades and I'm not sure what TCR is on updating them once they finally come

If you want them to see the grades, I would update everyone

If you'd rather they never see the grades and you want to hasten the ding, I would update everyone

If you'd rather they never see the grades, I wouldn't update

If they asked to be updated, I would update them regardless of whether you want them to see the grades or not

Does anyone know how competitive MoFo's two-summer patent program is? (Such as number of people applying, number of positions available, typical profile of candidates offered positions, etc.)

does an invited interview have more weight than an on-campus interview won through a bidding process? I assume yes, but want to test the waters

It's very competitive. I've accepted an offer for the program. I can't comment as to specifics of your question though since it would be merely speculative.
