@OvertReconditeSpider: so cracked bro i’m waiting on my last reference before i can apply im so far behind

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:19

hoping i have good grades to carry the 1L summer job process

OvertReconditeSpider

13:20

good luck bro! i've only applied to BL firms that do tax/finance bc thats my only advantage for 1L

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:20

you got a 1L summer job at a firm? a SA position?!

InsipidLemon

13:21

Hey guys, if I get into Vandy is that really good for BL? they have high percentages but idk if that's locked to Nashville only

OvertReconditeSpider

13:21

yeah its a firm, not BL though

vany id s NYC feeder/ dc feeder

i am getting lots of traction by applying to mid law in areas where the attorneys all went to TTT/TTTT schools lol

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:21

@InsipidLemon: vandy is a good school but a lot of their big law stuff are firms that don’t pay cravath. so you will have to work a little harder. but still a very solid school

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:22

@OvertReconditeSpider: that’s super cracked, very strong career moves you’re making

OvertReconditeSpider

13:22

the firm that offered me pays associates 105-130k it looks like but the median home price in the area is 225k ;) lol

13:23

should i do the optional video for vandy? i didnt yet, im not sure it'll hurt my app because i Dont do it as oppose to more "makes no difference" like a why nyu for nyu

HopefullyInLawSchool

13:23

do it, the more you can put in thats quality the better

jackfrost11770

13:23

i wrote a pretty detailed why vandy for their little text box in the app so it's just gonna be the same shit again

OvertReconditeSpider

13:23

only 1 hour from philly and 1.5 hour from NYC so its best of both world imo. I wanna live somewhere cheap so money goes farther

InsipidLemon

13:24

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: ahh no way, so just 500+ firms that aren't Cravath?

InsipidLemon

13:24

Also, does anyone know if I can do Vandy's scholarship materials after my decision? Or do they need to be done before a decision

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:24

@InsipidLemon: a lot of them aren’t cravath but vandy is still a very solid school so i’m sure some of those are cravath

jackfrost11770

13:24

ok ty!

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:24

@jackfrost11770: i didn’t do the video and i got waitlisted

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:25

@OvertReconditeSpider: that’s still great money. a house with two years salary is very much within your means

OvertReconditeSpider

13:26

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: 100%. im graduating with $10k in loans so its very chill with me lol

llama

13:28

@OvertReconditeSpider: working the plan and the plan is working, bravo

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:28

OvertReconditeSpider

Are the 2024 ABA 509 reports applicable to applicants applying for fall 25?

LawCarrot

13:43

Like updated medians etc.?

LawCarrot

13:44

Does admissions account for that data

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:49

yes if the medians go up they tend to stay up
