Top Law Schools

Presuming I am willing to move anywhere for a job (AK, NV, TX), or do anything short of murder, is it possible to land an SA 2017? Let me add that I probably wont make law review, and have an irregular grade pattern. (1st sem. 4.0 -> 2nd. 3.3).

For this summer it's probably too late but summer after 2L? Sure, absolutely.

I thought the general rule was top 10 or bust? I want to add that most people find me attractive and I am personable/friendly.

Fuck no I was median at a TTT.

Network and reach out to alumni in the area you want to practice.

T

If you want to be able to sit at home while firms send you offers, go to a T14 and be top 10%. If you can hustle, you can do less.

FTFY. It depends on the school. There are some T1 schools where you might have a shot but not a great outlook obviously since you're right on the edge. Other schools, no way.

Yes

Its your job to lose. You have 3 months to make contacts, work on your interview skills, and get interviews. At probably at least 80% of the 100+ firms in the country if you have someone pulling for you, you probably can get at least a screener with your stats.
