September 2022 - Big Law Salaries?
Yeah. No one is quite calling foul yet, so my indignation is premature. But I always find it insufferable when law students and lawyers start complaining about being exploited by the realities of a capitalist free market. We are all, with almost no exceptions here, winners in this competitive marketplace. All we are debating now is how much we each win relative to one another. I have zero patience for anyone who was fine with the cut throat, winner gets ahead nature of our marketplace right up until the point they themself stopped winning. Now it's suddenly "unfair." Its not unfair that the guy delivering your food makes so much less than you do. Oh no. It's just unfair that some rain making partner is earning so much more. Because that's the real problem with inequality in society. -

UBC/UofC/UVic/UofA Chances: 86.5% GPA and 165 LSAT
Looking through the forums at the waitlist/accepted/rejected UBC archives makes me feel as though I'm on the cusp and that I'll most likely be waitlisted. But thank you for the kind words, definitely helps! -

Chances: cGPA 3.94 / UBC 87.9%, LSAT 160
Thank you! I'm definitely hoping my GPA + personal statement will make up for the LSAT. Do you know anything about how UBC and/or McGill weigh LSAT and GPA? (e.g. Equally important, more weight on either one) -

Chances: cGPA 3.94 / UBC 87.9%, LSAT 160
You should have no issue with Queen's, Dal, Ottawa or Osgoode. Your LSAT is on the low side for UBC and McGill, but your GPA will make up some ground there. -

Chances: cGPA 3.94 / UBC 87.9%, LSAT 160
Applied to UBC, Oz, Ottawa, Queen's, McGill, and Dal Bilingual, I'd say solid softs and LORs (multiple exec positions since second year on student organizations, academics-based and 1 leadership-based awards/scholarships, 1 research publication) -

September 2022 - Big Law Salaries?
I’m being sarcastic here but there is something to it. High turn over among associates who produce the majority of work, with little room for advancement and to make the real dough is something. -
