Do not attend a non top 14 law school in this economy

[flowerhead]

<p>

Often, in the past, these law firms would hire one (and sometimes even two) tippy top students (I literally mean the top student or two in the class) from these law schools each year, particularly if the partner who graduated from that law school is active in recruiting. This year, many top paying law firms are just not sending recruiters to these law schools.

<p>To buttress this point, I’ll go so far as to say that some firms even stopped going to some top 14 schools. Cravath was conspicuously absent from UVA this year; Milbank and Kirkland didn’t go to Cornell; none of the non-West-Coast Kirkland offices went to Boalt or Stanford. Akin Gump didn’t go to Yale. Schulte Roth withdrew from Michigan. The list is longgggggggg.</p>
