Any internships worth it in my position?

2L looking to 3L year. Currently top 10%, Law Review, Federal Judicial Externship, Summer Associate...

Are there any positions that would be worth applying to for 3L, or should I just focus on doing my best to round off my last year? If it helps, my SA office does not have a 100% offer rate. It is probably closer to 85%. They are well known for their culture at the office and have dinged people for not being very social.

Thanks guys!

What else would you like to do? Are you at all interested in prosecution or defending criminals? If so, I'd say intern at a prosecutors or public defenders office.

Just figure out what you like and go from there. Explore other things, if anything just for fun.

Anything civil litigation related would probably be nice. I was considering interning with a state appellate court in my district, but I am not sure if the time is worth it.
