Thanks! Just out of curiosity, if I am from
SMU magna and I go to Columbia to do a JD (self funded), do I have a shot at Wachtell? Or it is your first degree have to be Ivy League?

Alternative is Oxbridge-Harvard LLM, but that depends on market factors and you will need to hustle with connections.
Cravath scale is across most of NY's top firms and sometimes globally, so you don't necessarily need to be at Cravath.
