Getting in (to practice) and staying in... How hard can it be?

And meanwhile, in the world of cultural capital, I posted as a guest on Amicae Curiae recently on what women - and men - wear to work and whether it matters.  Personally, I believe it does matter.  Simon McKay has posted this week too on cultural capital (though he doesn't use the term) in terms of entry to the profession.  See what you think.
