Just finished my 1L year at HLS. I have 2 DS's, 4 H's, and 4 P's (the P's include both LRW semesters, my BLL elective, and the international course).
What are my chances at a clerkship? I'd prefer something in the 3rd, 4th, 5th, or 11th Circuit, but I'm neither picky nor proud—I just want a clerkship.
Many thanks!

Re: Clerkship Chances?
You're competitive for clerkships in all those circuits, particularly for district court clerkships. COA will be tougher, but not out of the question.

Re: Clerkship Chances?
I'd say pretty solid shot for a COA in one of those circuits. Did you do the write-on? HLR will be a boost, but not necessary.
