Honesty, the school will tell you they are competitive and that you need this or that, but it’s actually really easy. As long as you pay sticker price and timely fill out application you can go. I think I had a really horrible grade in one of my tax classes at jd level, estate and gift tax, like a d . Nobody cared. during the application phase.

Would love some advice / thoughts. I went straight from law school to a corporate legal department in house for an asset manager. They like “home grown” talent and I “be worked hard and risen relatively quickly (AGC in 9 years). I work hard and get a lot of complicated deals done (structured products and private funds). I can’t shake certain people (in compliance department mainly) thinking I don’t have enough experience to do what I do because I didn’t come from a law firm. Any advice?
