Reviews, Visits, and Rankings / Re: Rankings v Initiative« on: September 12, 2008, 12:51:55 PM »
^ specifically related to tier 2,& 3 school differences not talking about extremes.. I'm not going to a top 25 or bottom 25 school so midrange schools. Keep this in mind.

So what are your opinions on the impact of rankings versus your own initiative/personal networking in associate/post grad jobs?
Now, I'm not implying that tier 4 can be competitive with a tier 1 candidate or anything crazy like that.. but say a one or maybe 2 ( tier 2/3 or tier 4/2) tier difference. Also,not referring to "Big Law" either. Smaller firms, gov't, public interest type work. I am just reflecting on my personal experiences in undergrad... that in undergrad where you went to college isn't a huge concern about getting a job compared to the more important issues of experience, individual initiative,etc. Example, I've had pretty good political jobs/internships and I'm not at an Ivy college or anything like that.. just a regional university and take initiative to be involved in the community and relevant organizations... I would imagine this might continue into law school. say you get into a lower tier school in a more desirable location than a higher tiered school somewhere else.. or something like that. comments? 3
