this is the strangest c/o 2018 applicants thread

no stranger than our doughnuts

That was actually pretty clever.

Any idea why W&L fell by like 20 something spots last year? I have a friend considering going to school there. Also, Wake dropped a lot.

W & L has pretty bad placement and it seemed like a correction to about what they should be. I think I read somewhere that they had some class size issues a few years ago.

Once you get out of the top 20 (top 14 especially) it gets really volatile.

Hey the T18 is set now

Peaches when are you gonna stop working? Have you enjoyed your makeshift gap year?

yeah it was unexpected but good! my last day at my main job is friday 7/17 (raging that night for my bday: you're all invited) then I've got a three-week trip planned to visit friends & family before school starts. I thought this year would drag on once I deferred but it's gone really fast so far! I can't believe you guys are already about 3/4 done with your first year.

Peaches, are you a STL native?

Good to hear. You'll be in our shoes soon enough, definitely enjoy the break between work and school!

O yea scotti i just took that midterm for the class that you screwed me over. I think i got a solid A, my ability to write BS for an hour and a half is surely a mastered skill.

also sublime dont be hating on usc, im seriously considering it rn. although i'd prefer nyc market, THEN the LA market, so idk, wustl and usc are a toss up

also a precondition for having fun is getting strange.

Peaches, are you a STL native?

nope, moved here in 2012 after college

[chuckbass]

Well you're halfway set to doing well in law school, where you have write BS for a few hours for each class.

And you're saying you'd prefer to start in NYC, then move to LA?

[LawsRUs]

Nope. i wanna live in nyc

Scott do you know anybody who's done a semester in practice externship? If one were to do one in say Chicago would that demonstrate interest to practice in Chicago?

I don't, that'd be a better question for sublime.

The problem with all of these programs though (such as the semesters in DC and NYC as well) is that they take place after OCI, and that's going to be the main way you get a job in one of these cities.

[LawsRUs]

When does OCI take place?

[LawsRUs]

Is nyc oci pre-select?
when are you going to nyc for the summer?

Wait there's a 5k in the morning? That's awesome and I'm out of cardio-shape. The struggle is real.

[LawsRUs]

Any particular reason why 2Ls this year did well in nyc? (if they did well)
