is there still an oversupply of lawyers in SG after the axing and hollowing out?
lawsoc stats showed a +1k practicing lawyers between 2016 to 2017 from 4+k to 5+k .. and from last year to this year it was 5+k to 6+k.. isnt that quite a significant increase...?

the assumption is that lawyers are smart and sharp.
but probably these policymakers who were adjusting the supply of lawyers back then could have used someone with a stronger math/stats background on their team to do a better forecast

Insufficient data to allow for such conclusion. "Oversupply" normally refers to too many law grads for too little lawyer jobs. The stats only capture those holding practising certificates. This by definition means these people have already obtained lawyer jobs
Also, most of the attrited lawyers go in-house and this is not captured. I reckon the number of in-housers exceed the practising lawyers significantly

Baker disputes is bad, both in terms of cases and training. Everyone knows it. You sound like you're part of their team and trying to whitewash the team's reputation.

This is a new team for some years and it's a good team with caring associates and partners and excellent training. You are probably some troll or disgruntled over something so you keep trolling. Move on from your past bitterness.
