3.5X (just shy of top 15%). Interests are DC lit and two regulatory areas. Right now all firms are DC (by far my preferred area) but I'm looking for some help on which firms are probably not worth bidding on and which NY firms I could potentially replace them with. I'd also appreciate help on changing my bid orders.

This is pretty spot on. I'd move Orrick up a few spots to account for their increasing popularity at EIW, but otherwise it's a good list.

Whats up Hoyas. I'm sitting with a 3.2X with strong ties to CA and TX, and some to Seattle.
Any advice? Is my bid list going to have to be all NY?

Are you only bidding 30? If not you can safely move foley and lardner down to the bottom because you will probably be pre-selected. This list looks good. Depending on how ok you would be with NYC I would throw Cravath, Skadden, and Simpson thatcher in your top 10 as they are all NY firms with huge classes but also a high GPA that you clear.

Sometimes interviewers will interview for many of their offices in the same time slot (generally for secondary markets/smaller offices). As long as you indicate your interest in the right market during the interview, it should be OK.

phew awesome okay. It's just weird that on my schedule it says Jones Day (Boston, MA). It should say (Boston, NYC, etc). I did this with DLA Piper too- but ended up cancelling because it was the DC office (wanted NYC), so now i'm thinking they just list one of their offices, but are interviewing for others at the same time. I hope anyway

On my Symplicity, NY and Boston are on the same schedule. Interviewer initials are JS and PB.

So next question (i'm a transfer and don't have a clue what to do half the time) but how do you find a list of what firms have a hospitality suite, and where/when they have it?

I think it was up by this time last year, but there's a section on the student portal under hiring programs (EIW) which contains the link. We should get an email within the next two days about it. The link generally contains information on the firms with hospitality suites and their locations in the hotel.

great thanks so much!! I found it but for anyone else reading- it still says "coming soon". feel like we should have it by now so we'd have time to research the firms
