I fully intend to add banners once I have the ability to use the [img] tag without bothering mods. ;)

I do have some decent PS skills of my own, not to worry.
Cool, I thought with the pictures posted on the post already, that there was another reason why it had no header.

(and it saves people from my abysmal ps skill too, so groovy)

Is that percentage tallied out of the entire class? As in, taking into account the summer destinations for all 200 students or so? If so, wow, 40% end up at top 20 firms, that's kinda amazing.

Also Wahrheit, you can post pictures now can't you? You passed 100th post!

Yes this is for the 200ish or whatever it is with transfers. This is the summer between 2L and 3L btw, the big firm percentage for 1Ls tends to be right around 20%.
