I sent hundreds, nearly a thousand, hard copy letters as a 2L and 3L. I received maybe 2 responses (and 2 interviews with non-market paying law firms).
I sent out about 75 emails to specific people that I had researched, with very personalized content, and I landed more than 5 full call backs with several offers.
Email is definitely the way to go

Re: (Targeted) Mass Mailings: Email or Snail Mail?
When you guys say "personalized content", how specific are you talking? My current approach is to research one particular person who specializes in a practice area that I have experience in, write something short about this person's interests, express an interest in learning from and working with this person, and then throwing in a brief paragraph about how my work experience is aligned with the experience of this person.
All in all, my email is about 150 words (which I think is enough). Does this seem personalized enough to everyone?
