Transfer into Berkeley Law--I mostly targeted LA, but some SF, OC, SD. I'm still waiting to hear back from about 10 or so firms out of 22 interviews from the screening process. Got 2 CBs and the rest rejections. Should I expect that most of these will be dings?
I know conventional wisdom says start mass mailing regardless, but I am just curious whether these are likely to be rejections or whether I can have some hope as I continue to mass mail other firms?

You might get 1 or 2, but most are done.

Some of the firms could just be putting you in a maybe pile, but likely that most will be rejections

When was OCI? If you interviewed last Th/F then it's to early to write these off.

OP here,
OCI was 4th-8th of August. The firms I am waiting to hear back from are scattered throughout either the 5th-8th (Tu-Fri). I know that most of them have sent out CBs to others, although some have also sent dings which I have not received.

Stop reading tea leaves and start mass mailing, IMO

yup.

yup.

Thanks, that's the plan, just curious as to the chances of the ones I'm waiting on while I mass mail

I am in a similar position as you OP, I am hoping that once a few of the CBs get turned down and/or people turn down offers we will get a callback. *Wishful thinking*

The odds of those being cbs are pretty low, I think. Let them go and move on with the mass mail. If it turns out otherwise, it's just a plus.
