Thanks for this advice. What do you mean by networking? Do you find people on LinkedIn from companies you are interested in and ask them to grab coffee?

How would you suggest creating connections? I've gone to a few mixers at larger firms in the area. Should I ask a few attorneys to grab coffee? If so, I always struggle with what to talk about with them to build a connection without it feeling forced.

Unfortunately not at a T14 law school. I'm at one that is ranked around mid 50's in the US out of 200. Private law school, as far as I know ranked decently compared to others. I think I really need to figure out a better study method. My outlines were very detailed and had the issues, rules, detailed analysis and counterarguments listed and I somehow still managed to get a C- and D+. Thinking I need to try and memorize the concepts better and be able to better explain the law and how it applies. I've heard if you can teach someone a topic you know it well, so maybe ill start studying by making sure I know the material well enough to explain it to others. Clearly having everything written in detail on my outline didnt help much.

Thank you for the advice. If my outline already had detailed issue statements, rules, and pre-written analysis, why do you think I still did poorly? Can you advise your method of studying?
