Psyched for Law School!
Poast new message in this thread
Date: February 5th, 2010 7:08 PM Author: Hairraiser chapel dysfunction Now that we all know what our fears are, in the spirit of USS: Optimism, lets talk about what we are excited for about law school. I have a feeling this will not be as active of a thread...
Oddly enough, I am excited for the workload. It sounds incredibly difficult and I am excited to start 'figuring it out.' I'm excited to meet some interesting people, as I myself am not one of them. I want to get to know everyone from the nerdy art girl, to the NCAA athlete, to the 35 year old father/husband. I'm excited to be surrounded by not only brilliant professors, but some pretty intelligent students as well. I love a great academic atmosphere. If I end up in another part of the country, I am excited for that too, especially if I end up in North Carolina.
That's all I got... anyone else?! |

Date: February 5th, 2010 7:39 PM Author: Lake mood institution Sounds like you have a winning attitude! Law school is what you make of it, friend! Don't listen to all the gloomy gusses who tell you that it's basically a three-year long mental rape where your future is determined based solely upon the results of ~6-8 incredibly arbitrary exams, and the "prize" for winning the contest is slaving away on LR for 2 years and then going to a sweatshop so you can barely enough money to pay back your loans before you crack and lateral out to some mediocre-to-good in-house job. Those guys are faggots who don't appreciate challenging academic discourse and RIGOR.
The important thing is that you follow your dreams! |

I agree, it's friday night and I have my first draft of my LR note due Sunday night. This is fucking awesome, not only do I have to stay in all weekend, I get to miss the Superbowl as well.

Date: February 5th, 2010 7:43 PM Author: Lake mood institution Congrats! It must be incredibly satisfying craft a piece of scholarship in a RIGOROUS area. Just think, if you're lucky, maybe it'll be published! Then you get to work on it even MORE!! (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1213559&forum_id=2#14027420) |

Date: February 5th, 2010 7:48 PM Author: Hairraiser chapel dysfunction Did you do any 0L prep before law school (books like PLS, Getting to Maybe, etc., E&Es, or LEEWS)? If so, would you say it helped at all, and what would you recommend based on your experience? If not, do you wish that you did?
Thanks again. |

Date: February 5th, 2010 7:50 PM Author: Territorial Base LEEWS is good in the sense that it helps you spot exam issues versus the traditional IRAC exam formula. I did E&E's for Contracts but I wouldn't do it again. The most helpful thing are the Emmanuel's flashcards. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1213559&forum_id=2#14027484) |

Date: February 5th, 2010 7:53 PM Author: Lake mood institution tbf, the contracts E&E is among the shittiest of the series
anyone who doesn't use E&E for civ pro is fucking bat shit crazy loco. i also liked the torts one, the property one was okay, and the crim law and evidence ones were also helpful |
|
Date: February 5th, 2010 7:56 PM Author: Territorial Base I didn't like the Property one. Do still do any of this shit 2L year? I don't at all. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1213559&forum_id=2#14027526) |
|
Date: February 5th, 2010 7:58 PM Author: Lake mood institution i generally do ~10% of the casebook reading, but study heavily from supplements. I'm a big proponent of the E&E series.
it's served me well |
