I'm a 1L right around median at Chicago (only 2 grades out so far, and combined they're only worth about 13% of first-year grades, so I'm working harder this quarter and hoping for some improvement- but let's assume I stay around median).
1) What range of Philly firms should I be looking to bid on for OCI? I know bidding is a long way off but I do have good reasons for wanting to know now.
3) I don't think a lot of Chicago students bid on Philly firms (I could be wrong, it's just the impression I have). Will this be an advantage, or am I just going to be up against a ton of Penn/Temple/Nova students who might have more connections?
I guess that's it for now, thanks!

Re: Philadelphia biglaw
You realize that many of the Philly biglaw firms have cut their 2L summer programs right? (Morgan Lewis, Ballard Spahr, etc.)
I've been talking to partners at a couple of firms and can discuss further via PM.
