Nothing to see here. Just a poor misguided fool.

Any shot? Deep roots in TX, T6, a few loose social/organizational connections to a major partner

Unlikely. Keep in mind, too, that you need a federal clerkship to get a post-graduation offer there, and below median at T6 is far from guaranteed to get one.Anonymous User wrote:Any shot? Deep roots in TX, T6, a few loose social/organizational connections to a major partner
I'm 100% set on doing a federal clerkship, not that that guarantees anything. I'll basically do it in Alaska if that's all I can get, so I figure with so many judges in undesirable locations, I'm bound to find some district court taker somewhere.Anonymous User wrote:Unlikely.

You're below median at T6. Again, it's far from guaranteed. I don't know why you would want to go from a firm anyways that's going to be that high risk given your stats. How far below median are we talking?Anonymous User wrote:I'm 100% set on doing a federal clerkship, not that that guarantees anything.

Likely right at the 25% mark; maybe a touch over. Striking out at OCI isn't a huge deal for me though b/c the firm I worked at at (V30) has already extended me an offer for next summer.Anonymous User wrote:

If you're at a non-HYS T6 and outside the top third if not top quarter, a federal district court is an extreme long shot, not something "you're bound to find." There's plenty of people in the top 25% willing to clerk in Alaska for a year. I don't think you realize how insanely competitive it is to get a job at Susman. Like 80% of the associates are COA clerks, and it's a place where top 10% at CCN is on the outside looking in unless they bring something else to the table.Anonymous User wrote:I'm 100% set on doing a federal clerkship, not that that guarantees anything.

Alaska is actually a desirable location. you're not going to get any district court with below median at t6. i know people at median or higher at HYS who had trouble getting clerkships.Anonymous User wrote:I'm 100% set on doing a federal clerkship, not that that guarantees anything.
