Has anyone heard of a non-URM consultant who got admitted to HSW while being more than a few points below the median on the test? (710 or below)? Seems like there is no one with those scores who gets admitted to HSW these days unless they have some wildly unique and good work experience and/or are URM.

Hi! I’m a first-year associate working at a large regional firm. I attended a well-ranked, but regional law school and my grades weren’t stellar. School was never very motivating for me, and I put way more effort into internships and networking than my studies during law school. Luckily, I love to network and landed an awesome job at a big firm. Eventually, I’m hoping to work in-house. My question is this, will my grades always follow me? I’ve heard that with time and experience, not so much.
