13:38
notre dame***
13:38

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp
13:39
Do you want big law?
13:40
not particularly
KnowledgeableRitzyWasp
13:40
Yeah then go notre dame
KnowledgeableRitzyWasp
13:41
I assume notre dame offered you more scholarship money
13:41
yes
KnowledgeableRitzyWasp
13:41
Pretty open and shut case the

Then

13:41
surely cornell positions you for a clerkship better than notre dame?
MightyUnableSphinx
13:42
maybe not by like
MightyUnableSphinx
13:42
a huge amount but like?
13:42
no
KnowledgeableRitzyWasp
13:42
Not really Cornell is pretty bad for clerkships
MightyUnableSphinx
13:42
huh
MightyUnableSphinx
13:42
what you are wanting to do would be very difficult for me to do tbh
MightyUnableSphinx
13:43
but if you know what you want, then what you want to do makes 100% perfect crystal clear sense

Cornell is a biglaw factory
13:44
cornell def has a stronger network on the east coast and that's where id like to able to practice eventually but... it feels wrong and Notre dame feels right
13:45
Cornell's "eventually clerk" number is 20%. It's not as high as some other schools (their "eventually clerk" % is also higher than the "right after graduation" figure) but not super different from other T14s either

Jb can I do California big law from cornell
13:52
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: Hard to say for sure. CA is Cornell's #3 destination (per https://www.lawschool.cornell.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/EQSummaryReport-4-3-2024.pdf), but that's a small share of the class - 8 grads out of 174 compared to 111 in New York. Probably some self-selection (a lot of people looking at NYC biglaw), but you'd likely need to get good grades and put serious effort into networking. Not a layup like Cornell to NYC.
13:53
Did NYU have another E wave yesterday?
KnowledgeableRitzyWasp
13:53
Okay thank you for the detailed explanation. Looks like NYC it is. Betting on 8 out of 174 is hubris
13:58
Worth noting it's probably not 8 out of 174 people with CA as their goal - if someone goes to Cornell, they're almost certainly interested in NYC or open to it - but maybe 8 of a couple dozen that apply to CA
KnowledgeableRitzyWasp
13:59
Alright, there’s probably some self selection but it’s not nearly as consistent as. Cornell—>NYC
