Hi Nona, you actually are not the student I was referring to. The student I'm referring to was the gentlemen who asked something along the lines of, "Why are you defending the firms?" I thought your question was value-added; if, in fact, there were statistics all students would benefit from knowing this. However, thinly-veiled questions about the merits of working at firm are counter-productive at a meeting where people have already decided that, at the very least, they have some curiosity or would like to keep their options open. I hope that clarifies my comments.
