Why work at all?

Just spend the semester in the Bahamas, come back for exams, get straight P's, and chill in a firm with low(er) hours expectations. That's sort of what I did.

Half-right. Gun hard the first year and see where you end up. If you do well you have a shot at a great clerkship or FedGov (State, DOJ). If you fuck up, then go to Cleary and chill for 2 years.

Clerking is and always was a shitty idea.

Also, Cleary doesn't take people with straight P's.

1. figure out which classes u need to attend, and don't attend the rest

2. regardless of whether or not u're on a scholarship, it would be good if u have a way of earning money right now

3. pay attention in ur legal writing class and civ pro -- the rest of the stuff is pure flame and u will never use it again in ur life

4. do not join a journal unless it's LR, and if u join LR do not take on any roles other than being a regular member

5. unless u are SURE u want to be a lawyer for life, it might not be a bad idea to hedge ur bets by seeing if u can take some free classes in something more useful in a different department

Go to the court clerk's office and see if they have printed instructions on how to use the public docket terminals. If you need examples of cases to look up, check the press releases of the DA's office, USA's office etc. For civil cases check your local newspaper or bar publication.
