<p>I know of many Tier One law students in the top 25% of their class, some with & some without law review, who have no job prospects. I know one student at a very well respected Tier One regional, top 2%–thought he was safe & didn’t need to compete in the write-on for law review, with no job prospects (every interviewer asks why he isn’t on law review). Top 1% to top 2% of his class. Tier One law school. Nothing. Well, not “nothing” as he has a lot of law school debt.</p>
