We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

Please stop using "discrimination" like this. It doesn't mean what you think it means. The uni you attended isn't an immutable characteristic. Sure, societal phenomena related to immutable/protected characteristics may have played a part in where you eventually landed up, but declaring your university educational circumstances to be as much beyond your control as your school circs would have been deprives you, as an adult, totally of a sense of agency. And may I point out that to the uninformed outsider, this brash, careless, dangerous, disappointing, ignorant and irresponsible use of "discrimination" might indicate as though your non-top-five or non-top-six law school didn't teach you what the unis you mentioned teach their students. Do you find even their mediocre students talking nonsense like this?
Anyways, the more I talk to my seniors before starting my 4th year, the more I realize that I will have to put in more efforts than these guys to claim a PPO or Day Z offer at the very least.
