Yes. I got interviews for CA offices with similar numbers/school. I'd imagine that the CA offices are similarly competitive to the NY offices. DC offices, however, could be harder.

They're roughly as selective as Fried Frank (who've apparently stepped up their GPA selectivity ITE) and Sidley.Anonymous User wrote:damn, what about weil gotshal?Anonymous User wrote:Those are a bit reachy.Anonymous User wrote:thanks. what about sidley and fried frank?Anonymous User wrote:Competitive at both.
