Is “partner track” really partner track for v10 or v50? These recruiting emails are enticing but how do I know whether partner track actually has a realistic chance of making it?

“Partner track” just means that it’s not a staff attorney position. It’s really tough while interviewing to figure out if you have a chance, especially if you’re a few years away, but try to see if other laterals have made partner in the last 2-3 years.

31 M 5 foot 8 200 lbs. muscular build. I want to get to 180 and know strength will take a hit. Has anyone experienced weight loss while maintaining muscle mass? Lifting 4-6 times a week for 45 mins. Cardio 1-2 times and that’s like a 15-20 min walk at most. Diet 75% vegan. How can I drop this weight? I’m fine to eat like a dog and have the same meals every day I just need someone to tell me what to eat and when.
