Hope someone can help.
3.25 at gulc.
I really, really want Biglaw and would like to bid at firms that aren't that popular at OCI so that I improve my chances of getting something. No law journal, no moot court. I know better than to apply to places like Cadwalader, Prokauer, etc. I was thinking of applying to firms out in Ohio where there are more interview slots than there are bidders. I would love NYC, but that may be tough to get.
Also, am part URM, but you would never know it from my skin color or surname. But, resume points out fluency in foreign language. How about Phila. or NJ?
Can anyone help with a bid list where I maximize my chances at getting at least some call backs?
Much appreciated.

As far as the ohio idea goes--don't do it unless you have some decent credibility for why you want to live in ohio.

You're actually better off bidding in New York. There are plenty of NY firms that are not at the Proskauer level.
