Hey TLS — I'm sure there's an easy, right answer here: I've got a month between leaving my clerkship and starting with my firm (which pays a bonus). Is the better answer to change my repayment plan for a month to deal with the liquidity hiccup—and if so to which—or to get an advance on the bonus from my firm and stay the course with current plan?
Thanks.

Re: Month between clerkship and firm — change repayment plan?
In my experience it's often taken at least a month to get changed to a new plan, so if you have the option to get an advance on your bonus, that might be more practical.
