Looking for specific firms, not just generalizations. Target markets are NY~~and DC~~.

Except that people with 3.1 do get DC but for some reason the TLS motto seems to be "if it's not likely don't even try" which is obviously a great and fulfilling way to live your life.

Thanks for the help bro

Because it's not safe. At that GPA you shouldn't risk unemployment by putting so much faith into DC. TLS is just risk-averse. Sure, some people can achieve it but most do not. More than likely, while you may, you will not. Don't ask for advice and then get pissy when someone gives it to you.

Greater and more fulfilling than striking out.

Mass mailing DC is great. Bidding DC firms instead of NYC firms is stupid with your grades. This is a simple concept and not a personal attack.

Do you have anything helpful to say other than "omg if you try DC you're totes striking out"?

I mean, instead of making this thread you could have used the search function and easily come up with a bidlist.

See now you said something actually helpful.

Uh oh, you missed the anonymous post function in your angry little rage.

Yeah your post is what firms should you target at OCI. The answer is zero DC firms. Sure, mass mail them. But there's probably no way in hell any DC firm is going to give you a CB at OCI when they could just as easily get someone with better grades. Especially if your OCI is all preselect.

DC should not be a concern. Your concern should be not striking out. You can call it TLS snark all you want. But if you thought that anyone in their right minds would suggest you spend any of your bids on DC firms, I don't know what to tell you.

I'm not going to get into the whole don't bid DC firms, you've got enough of that.

For NYC I would bid any firm with larger summer classes that are not super selective and hire people at median, i.e Proskaur, Wilkie, Paul Hastings, Cadwalader etc. This you could easily find by utilizing the search function. Which T10 tho?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Mon Jun 29, 2015 5:58 pm

Isn't a 3.1 well below median at every t14?
