Top Law Schools

We should get our pre-selects and alternates this week, and didn't see a thread yet, so here we go. Not sure what everyone wants to post, previous years threads are sparse. I think it would be helpful to post stats, what you bid on and what you got for others in this thread and for future.

I heard that Simpson(PA) already notified their pre-selects? Can anybody confirm that?

Anyone know when pre-selects are posted? Has anyone received any information for Chicago or LA?

LA is up.

So is Chicago. Whats the chance of an alternate getting an interview?

SF is up. Seems that OTIP is less competitive than the Bay Area Diversity Fair.

I assume it's because there are less schools participating in OTIP than BADF. Not to mention that the schools participating in OTIP are generally the top schools.

edit: Looked up the schools participating in OTIP and it's only GULC, NU, and UVA. Plus, in Chicago, only GULC and UVA are participating so it's even less competition.

Anyone have pending for Fenwick, Skadden, or Baker McKenzie (all SF)? Seems like some are getting accepted and others are just seeing pending. Why not flat out deny or mark as alternate?

Got Skadden. Did not bid for the other two but knew other ppl who got Baker

This x 10000! Does anyone have any insight into how likely an alternate is to turn into an interview? Also, I'm guessing the status of alternate means that the firm was less interested in me than others?

And finally, I received bids from firms that weren't anywhere near my gpa's galaxy. Are my chances as legit as my fellow interviewers or is my interview just a time filler?

Does anyone know which Chicago hotel we will be interviewing at?

Maybe, but I mean they could have not invited you even as an alternate if they weren't at least a little bit interested.

Also would like to know this. The OTIP site is showing 2016 location information.

Yes. I think so.

Does anyone know when will we be able to see interviewers in each firm?

Any idea when callbacks should start rolling out?

Curious as well

Any movement?

Bay Area has definitely made callbacks, at least 5 firms. Has anyone heard from DPW Menlo Park or Simpson Palo Alto?

What are the five firms?

OTIP interview times are local time, right? (I.e. chicago interviews are in central time).

Anyone heared from Mofo PA/SF or Skadden PA?

For Bay Area, I heard PH and Skadden have made CBs. Don't know about anywhere else.
