GT cut salaries in April, so they're no longer at 160k. Weil Gotshal is still paying 160k and I believe Hogan & Hartson does too, although their salary entry on NALP is blank.ranovr32 wrote:Texas or FLA for a job after school no matter what. BTW what firm was it Greenberg Traurig?

Boies Schiller has several offices in FL, and I would suspect they're paying top dollar as well. Actually, if the FL offices pay the same as New York, they would be at 174k.
The earliest is a week before it is due lol. No point in giving up my money just yet.johndh wrote:When are all of you thinking about sending in your deposits?

Those numbers arn't bad at all, so I still think Duke is a good choice. That's not bad. Finish in the top half of your class and you are in good shape.DallasCowboy wrote:Sooooo, less than 50% got Biglaw for class of 09. Anyone else nervous? Vanderbilt was only behind by 2%, what gives?
Yea they were on par with every other top school. I mean, it isn't looking great or anything but could be alot worse.hardscrabble wrote:That's not bad.

I think Duke has awesome career prospects in relation to all of the other t14, but I'm pretty sure most of the t14 are fluffing it up pretty bad. If you go on the OCI threads it seems like a blood bath outside of the top 10-15%. I'm just staying weary of everything NOT just Duke, but law school in general. I'm prepared for the reality of it, not what is on the brochure you know.DallasCowboy wrote:Yeah, it's not an indictment of Duke, just law school in general.
Booked ASW and hotel for two nights pretty excited. Twenty minutes agolz06 wrote:so who's going to ASW?
I see no problem with bringing a +1. I myself think these events might be a bit boring, so I have no idea what a SO would think.ranovr32 wrote:Booked ASW and hotel for two nights pretty excited. Twenty minutes agolz06 wrote:so who's going to ASW?
Anyone else bringing a serious girlfriend/fiancee/wife with them? Is it cool to bring them to the dinners and stuff, I signed up for the Associatin of Significant others group dinner, so that I could bring her to that. Any thoughts? Any in the same position?
Ya I'm going to rent a car. Since odds are I'll be attending Duke in the fall I might as well make this trip as enjoyable as possible. Also going to be doing alot of apartment hunting.ranovr32 wrote:I'm making a ten hour drive, I am going to appreciate having my car in Durham though. Its not like there are loads of options when it comes to transportation.
Me too, seems the lemurs will be quite a popular attraction. Maybe I should make a reservation.ranovr32 wrote:yeah I'm staying saturday for the apartment tour. I want to go see the Lemurs too on a random note lol
OMG ITS SO UGLYranovr32 wrote:Its because like all Duke admits, Lemurs are the sh;it
