Be prepared to discuss the grade drop and give a compelling reason for them to ignore it (and not just the D).

You're not unemployable, but unless that 3.33 puts you in the top segment of your class at your T2 I'd say biglaw is out of the question (as it is for almost everyone at a T2).

Where does a 3.33 put you rank-wise? It varies by school.
