Top Law Schools

This shall be the new megathread for all of your callbacks, offers, and dings from OCI firms. Good luck to all.

School range: lower T1
Rank: top 1% (estimated)
Callbacks at: Kirkland & Ellis, Milbank, clifford chance, Stroock, Baker & McKenzie - all NYC

Radio silence at these firms where others have reported callbacks (which doesn't mean a ding): Weil, Debevoise, MoFo, Cadwalader (OCS told me that this one was actually a ding, per interviewer)

Edit:added a callback

ETA: Debevoise ding via email

will there be a separate "OCI Results" thread or is this supposed to be same as the one from last year?

Probably separate; that one will probably be created once things start wrapping up.

Ouch.

Ok. People will just post whenever they hear something without having to consolidate. Sounds good.

Los Angeles area school.

Could you be more specific re your school? There are two T1, two T2, and one T3 school in LA.

Subtle UCI jab.

I shouldn't have to say this, but there is really no point of posting a list of callbacks or dings without stats.

Chadbourne & Parke NY ding after screener- T25- around 10%/LR

Below median at NYU.

Proskauer--networking callback
Weil -- mass mailed, got screening.
Barnes and Thornburg -- networking callback
GT -- Screener

I'm amused at the slew of poorly disguised Cornell posters.

I'm LA area anon before. Looks like OCI brings out the best in the TLS faceless mob. And while we're on the subject, no point to that post being anonymous. I sort of thought the point of a thread like this was to notify others of who's sending out callbacks, not to give 0Ls an idea of their chances.

Anyway, I'm at a LA area T1 with top 5% or higher grades. Callbacks at Paul Hastings, Irell, and Skadden.

Seems like the initial round of quick CBs go to the Top 5% with LR, then the other people get phased in.

DCN, top 1/3, secondary journal

Callbacks with MoFo and Bingham. Only dings are from 2 small, specialized mass mails so far.

ATLANTA firms that have begun making callbacks:

K&S
Sutherland
Paul Hastings
Bryan Cave

I haven't gotten CBs at all of these. Word of mouth only. Thought it might be useful for people waiting to hear. This may only be applicable to the Georgia schools as I don't think many others have done OCI yet for Atlanta firms.

Ding from O'Melveny next day aftter OCI screener via e-mail. T2 school, top of class.
