Bracewell & Giuliani NYC offer today. Duke interviewers were RE and PB. Callback was last Thursday, so turnaround time of a little under a week.

Is there a consensus to how OCI went this year? Most people I have spoken with seem to be at the point of deciding between offers, which I guess is a good sign.

I hope that we won't be tied with Michigan at #10 anymore since I hear they are doing horrible right now.

I heard Duke is matching Charlotte law's numbers this year.

It was great meeting you on campus on August 12th. We are especially excited about growing our chicken and fish practice groups and getting those into band 1 as well; although Bojangles seems to have a stranglehold on the chicken market at the momentum. We look forward to getting to know you further and for your callback interview. Feel free to email or call if you have any questions prior to your interview date.

Nothing wrong with tying with Michigan if doing so somehow bump us into T10

It was wonderful meeting none of you at Duke's on-campus interview program. Our gross chicken revenue for the year 2014 unfortunately was not substantial enough for us to participate in recruiting. As you know, our chicken practice was band 1 several years ago but has now been taken over by our competitor, Bojangles. However, we are currently looking for highly unqualified candidates for next summer's "deep fryer group." The ideal candidate will have a GPA of 2.6 or less, willing to assume the risk of oil burn, and will sign a worker's comp waiver. Applications should be sent directly to me, Colonel Sanders, at WeHaveTooMuchTime@KFC.com. Thank you.

Congrats. Just FYI - K&L no offers at a higher clip than most places.

I've heard that's true of NC offices and some of the other smaller ones, but I don't think that's the case in DC. I've heard everyone in at least the past 2 years got offers. Am I wrong?

Don't know about DC but looks like they were no offering about 20-25% (rough estimate based on what I've seen in threads) in many offices including: Pitt, Charlotte, New York and Texas

Chicago office was 100% in case anyone was curious.

And I think the 20-25% estimate may be a bit on the high side. When are NALP numbers released for 2014 summer?

If anyone still has and is willing to post (or PM) their hit/miss bid lists, that would be much appreciated.

Hope the summer is treating everyone well.
