cornell def has a stronger network on the east coast and that's where id like to able to practice eventually but... it feels wrong and Notre dame feels right
Cornell's "eventually clerk" number is 20%. It's not as high as some other schools (their "eventually clerk" % is also higher than the "right after graduation" figure) but not super different from other T14s either
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: Hard to say for sure. CA is Cornell's #3 destination (per https://www.lawschool.cornell.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/EQSummaryReport-4-3-2024.pdf), but that's a small share of the class - 8 grads out of 174 compared to 111 in New York. Probably some self-selection (a lot of people looking at NYC biglaw), but you'd likely need to get good grades and put serious effort into networking. Not a layup like Cornell to NYC.
Worth noting it's probably not 8 out of 174 people with CA as their goal - if someone goes to Cornell, they're almost certainly interested in NYC or open to it - but maybe 8 of a couple dozen that apply to CA

Alright, there’s probably some self selection but it’s not nearly as consistent as. Cornell—>NYC
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: do you have any easy to understand stats to show what you’re talking about? I know a lot of the data on here will show it if you’re smart enough to understand it… but alas I am not
Cuz all I’ve been able to tell from the last few years data vs this year is there’s FAR more people on the WL and far less Rs. So I’d assume the odds this year aren’t gonna be nearly as good as previous years
