UChicago Law OCI 2019
I haven’t seen a thread for U of C so thought I would start one.
Would anyone who has previously been through the process be willing to look at my bid list?

Re: UChicago Law OCI 2019
I'll look, but has OCI sent out the documents with grade ranges and bid success data? That's going to be way more useful than any information I can provide.

Re: UChicago Law OCI 2019
They had a deadline, for LR at least, last night. So maybe more calls will go out today.

A non-public deadline for LR offers to be made? Or a deadline for people to accept offers?Anonymous User wrote:They had a deadline, for LR at least, last night. So maybe more calls will go out today.

Re: UChicago Law OCI 2019
Deadline to accept. But there is no masthead yet so maybe they are not done.

Anyone know if the non-LR journals have been making offers or if they’re close to being finished, too?

Re: UChicago Law OCI 2019
I do not have any information, and this is pure speculation, but id guess calls won't be coming out today until the end of the working day so no need to stress in the meantime. No direct notice of journals being full is probably good news

LR is done, but the other journals haven't gone yet is my understanding.

Law Review calls went out Saturday. Anyone know if K&E has gone out?

Has anyone heard from other non-LR journals? Were calls made last night? Estimate of when they’ll be done, based on last year?

For people who've heard back from both CJIL and LF, what's the more well known/prestigious of the two?

They're equivalent, pick based on which one sounds more interesting and/or which one has people you'd rather work with.

So much for posting the LR masthead on Monday... I wonder what the holdup is.

Re: UChicago Law OCI 2019
It has been internally posted. I believe they said all of them will be released at the same time though so thats probably why it's not public

Any news on K&E? Either it’s much higher than other years or much later than other years

Initial schedules released today. How'd people do? I'm currently sitting at 25 interviews, with 17 of my top 20 bids resulting in interviews.

Also K&E finally came out this morning.

Re: UChicago Law OCI 2019
Unless you know K&E b/c you got it, be careful. Chicago/DC w/o strong ties to Chi is a pretty classic combo for strikeouts. Not in any way trying to panic you, and if your grades are K&E truly do not worry, but those are markets where you want to maximize your bites at the apple. If you missed firms that you think you are competitive for, consider reaching out to their recruiters and trying to sneak into the schedule somewhere. Disregard all this if you're K&E though, should be totally fine. I mean you'll probably be fine regardless, but less than 15 is definitely sub-optimal.Anonymous User wrote:Oof, fewer than 15.

Re: UChicago Law OCI 2019
Ahh then you're solid. Had a friend w/ similar stuff and ties, he got a Kirkland offer 6 hours after callback, dropped all of his Chi places except Sidley and then went off to DC and did great.
If people want help w/ CA I can speak fairly competently there, and semi-competently about other markets.
