Chicago TTT, top 1%, just admitted to Northwestern. Want biglaw in Chicago. Would be an extra $80,000 in debt. Worth it considering I have a small chance at biglaw at current school?

It's worth it. You will get many more opps and can bid other cities. That said, you should still ask somebody from the year of you in a similar position who stayed how hard biglaw was from your school.

No, just NU. I think my chances are getting biglaw are relatively similar at both, no?

I think uchi has better chances at elite Chicago firms but that may not matter. Mostly fed clerk is the big difference.
