Don't suck at law school exams I guess is the lesson to be taken from this. But the thing is I didn't suck per se. I didn't get any B minuses or Cs, just no As or A- either. At least I consistently wasn't worst in the class. Just sitting right in the meaty part of the bell curve. Someone will like that eventually, right? Probably not. Oh well at least I am getting lots of reruns of Its Always Sunny in today while mass mailing.

Sorry for the rant. I'm mostly a broken person by now. But don't give up everyone. We got it!

Cheer up, cbs go out as far as mid/late september, especially close to the 4 week deadline when half the firms realize the Harvard Law Review kid is going elsewhere.

FWIW, grades have no meaning at ccn. people here with bottom 20% grades and no work experience still get jobs (albiet much later than people with good grades and work experience)

This. Keep following up with mass-mail, screeners are still going out at many firms where people have declined offers.

Some people even get offers into early October, so by no means is the cycle over.

Rec. phone or email follow up for mass mail?

Waiting on ONE callback. Also three weeks ago and I know the hiring committee gave out offers three weeks ago. This was/is my dream firm. I don't want to check my mail because I'd rather continue to dream.

Same as you. CCN, rejected from one CB, one CB left.
My self-confidence has dropped significantly. I am now wondering what the hell is wrong with me that everyone else is getting offers except me.
I do despise the whole law school grading system. One entire semester under one exam, which isn't even a great representation of one's ability to do well in the legal field. I had technical problems for one exam and boom... my grade drops significantly. I feel like I know the law very well, and can apply it very well. It's just, the exams I have trouble with. But that's a whole different story/thread.

My TV show of choice while mass mailing is The Office. I guess we all have one haha.

If you have bad grades then not getting lots of offers should not reduce your self confidence. The average person with bad grades at CCN will struggle. If you're confident you can apply the law then be more confident going into it. No excuse to get down. Getting down is for when you have great grades, are in your position, and think you're getting rejected for things uncontrollable traits not related to your resume and transcript.
