100%. If you want to do big law in NYC, by far your best chance to break into that world is going to a T14 school. It's not impossible if you aren't at one of those schools, but you'll have to network really hard to break in.


One of my best friends is a partner at the NYC office of one of the top firms in the world. He graduated from Tennessee Law. He is the hardest working person I've ever met and is certainly an exception. He started in their Atlanta office before moving up to NYC

Yeah your average Tennessee and SC class is going to have single digit graduates going into big law right out of school. And 1-2 tops are going to start on NYC. The rest who break into big law will be in an office in Atlanta, Dallas, Charlotte, etc... which is still big law, but not the NYC big law people see on TV and think about
