<p>i am not really sure what you are trying to show by the citations you list here.</p>
<p>not every HLS or YLS student will get a job offer from every top firm with which they interview. some will get more job offers than others. but the fact that "it is not unusual that HLS kids got rejected" from top firms does not mean that students from HLS or YLS who wanted to work at some top firm were unable to do so -- perhaps some were unable to -- i don't know, but you certainly can't tell from the data you have cited thus far. </p>
<p>you really have to be careful about drawing generalized conclusions from limited stats or data.</p>
