Looking at NYC, coming from a T10 school with a slightly above median GPA (significant improvement second semester), probably an above-average interviewer. Thinking litigation. I get 25 bids.
So far:
Paul Weiss
Weil Gotshal
Cleary, Skadden, Latham, Ropes & Gray. Actually, I'll post mine:
1. Skadden Arps
2. Baker & McKenzie
3. Sidley Austin
4. Kirkland & Ellis
5. Mayer Brown
6. Ropes Gray
7. DLA Piper
8. Winston & Strawn
9. McDermott Will & Emery
10. Cleary Gottlieb
11. Vedder Price
12. Latham & Watkins
13. Foley
14. Jones Day
15. Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker
16. Quarles & Brady
17. Reed Smith
18. Davis Polk & Wardwell
That's what I have so far. I am focusing on Chicago, most, if not all of these have offices in NYC. About litigation, look at the vault ranking for litigation. I don't have that list in front of me. good luck, I have a feeling this fall OCI is going to be a bloodbath.
cheers.
