What's the value of a 2L judicial internship for a federal judge for 3L OCI? This is one of those judges where you actually do substantive work with the judge himself (you do the same work as the clerks, from what I hear).

How much would a 2L judicial internship help compared to other options out there? Biglaw is probably out at this point.
Note: pay isn't an issue. Outside scholarship is set up so everything (except biglaw and a high paying in-house gig) comes out as a wash.

Median at top 14.

Can you provide a little more information about what you want? Are you interested in BigLaw at all? Even if post-grad (not SA) Where would you like the internship to lead you, f/t clerkship following graduation? I have some thoughts for you, but need some more info.

Should you do in-house over judicial internship?
