Hi guys, I wanted to understand the bar examination system in the US. Let's say I go to UChicago or Northwestern for an LLM, can I network in Chicago and get a job there after passing the NY Bar? Or should I pick colleges only in NY to have better networking chances and a job in NY itself? I have competing offers from several universities and am having a hard time deciding. I am guessing if I am ineligible to work in a particular state, I will remove that option from my list and move on. Would love to know people's thoughts on this.
Is it possible to work in Illinois or DC after passing the NY Bar?
