What Concentration needed for clerkship

Post by thederangedwang » Tue Dec 27, 2011 7:07 pm

is there a certain concentration that is good or desirable if you want a clerkship? Like is studying constitutional law preferable for getting a clerkship over something else like patent law or whatever?

No, but take Federal Courts. It will help you do your job.
