It sounds like you have more than 5 offers open and are asking for advice about them. I am fairly certain this violates NALp rules. Although perhaps I am wrong.

It violates the NALP rules to figure out the best place for you to work so you can turn down your other offers?

Sorry, I was wrong. Each offer over five has to be declined within a week of the offer. I apologize. I thought it was probably immediately or some such thing. So disregard my stupid comment.

I think you're not supposed to keep more than 5 offers open.

You get one week after receiving offer number six to get it back to five.
