~3.3 at NYU, only interest in corp. Preferences are in order: 1) a job 2) LA 3) NY
I didn't know how popular LA firms are so I had to make a guess on where to place them.

1 Proskauer NY 58
2 Paul Hastings LA 11
3 Kirkland NY 58
4 Skadden LA 21
5 Sidley NY 77
6 Skadden NY 96
7 Proskauer LA 21
8 Sidley Austin LA 21
9 Weil NY 77
10 Sheppard Mullin LA, CC- 2 21
11 White Case NY 77
12 Clifford Chance NY 77
13 Shearman NY 96
14 Fried NY 115
15 Milbank Tweed LA 21
16 Orrick NY 58
17 Morgan Lewis NY 58
18 Milbank NY 108
19 Schulte NY 115
20 Cadwalader NY 164
21 Cahill NY 96
22 Willkie Farr NY 134
23 Winston Strawn NY 39
24 Bryan Cave LA, OC, NY- 13 21
25 OMM LA 21
26 OMM CC 21
27 White Case LA 21
28 McDermott NY 77
29 Rutan Tucker OC 21
30 Cooley LA, SD - 9 19
31 Akin LA 21
32 Cleary NY 192
33 Jones Day NY 77
34 Vinson NY 15
35 Bracewell NY 20
36 Stroock NY 115
37 Mintz NY 20
38
39
40
41
42 KL Gates NY 77
43 Kaye NY 58
44 Stroock NY 115
45 Chadbourne NY 115
46 Dechert NY 134
47 Debevoise NY 154
48 DPW NY 192
49 STB NY 154
50 Gibson NY 97
51 Paul Weiss NY 173


So around the 30's-40's I'm unsure what to add. I'm missing 38-41 for that reason. I'm thinking of adding firms with large interview slots (Ie: chadbourne).

Is my top 20 okay? I understand it's sort of risky since I'm putting popular, more selective firms at the top and less popular but sort of less selective firms in the teens. Hoping I can get away with this.?

Can I get away with LA firms with 21 slots lower on the list? (ie: O'Melveny LA, Akin LA, etc.) or should they be in my top 10-15?
Finally, is it a waste to bid on multiple offices? (I have both for Skadden, Proskauer, Sidley since I like those firms). I mean in the end, does this narrow my chances since I'm only getting 1 offer anyway?
