Best Schools for Big Law: I hate stories like this...

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Feb 28, 2012 9:55 pm

Just read the ATL story about the Best law schools for big law placement: http://abovethelaw.com/2012/02/best-law ... -job-2012/. 2011 grad at P of MVP. Unemployed at graduation. Reading a story like that really depresses me because it quantifies my failure.

Recently got a non-law job (which I hope will give applicable experience in my chosen field as I continue to look for a law job). Pays relatively well compared to working in public interest law or small firm, but not enough to pay back the huge loans that I took while in law school.

Did anyone else (jobless 3Ls or alums) get that feeling when reading that article?
