I finally mustered up enough courage to ask the hiring partner for a clerkship next summer. Im a firm believer that you don't get what you don't ask for. Approaching him, I had the biggest knot in my stomach. We started with a little small talk and then I told him how much of an asset I felt that I could as a summer clerk. With horrible agony he calmly smiled and told me he thought it was a great idea. What a relief. The caviat- I have to send him my transcripts after my first term. I'm pretty sure that he's expecting me to be in the top 5% of my class. No sweat. er, I mean... Oh crap. What have I got myself into?
