How many summers is your firm looking for?

I'm curious to know how many summers your firm may be looking for. Mine is looking for about 25, which is a big drop from our previous summer classes. I'm wondering if other firms are also seeking smaller classes. Thanks for your poll answers!

and yet, my firm says it's seeking 50 on NALP. NALP is not always accurate.

40-45. A few more than last year (which also grew by about 2-3 from the year before)

Either or, I guess. I'm really just curious if all firms are cutting back substantially.
