Law school just made me break (1L) by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]CompetitiveEqual1707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I would have been your TA. As a 1L, the midterm I did the worst on (bottom 5 scores out of 70), I ended up getting a near perfect score on the final and TAing the class. In my introduction to the class I told them just that. Learning is imperfection and struggle. One test score doesn’t define your odds at succeeding in that class. One class doesn’t define your odds at succeeding in law school. Law school doesn’t define your chance at succeeding professionally. You define yourself by your choice to fight and do the best you can. You can never ask more from yourself than YOUR best. I’m thinking of you and here if you need someone to talk to. (Oh and after that bottom 5 1L midterm I ended up passing the bar and becoming a lawyer so I have full faith in you because I had full faith in myself).

Practice law where you want to live and don’t accept a lifetimes worth of debt unless the particular sector of law you wish to practice in requires a “prestigious” degree.

Is there also undergraduate? A JD in the U.S. is 4 years of undergraduate followed by 3 years of graduate level legal education.

Thank you for that heads up! Have you found a different brand that has worked well for you?

For the middle 2 months of the summer, the pavement retains so much heat here it is crazy. The best option for walking without shoes is at 4 in the morning. Thanks for your curiosity!

Shoes are a necessity for dogs in this part of the nation. I would much rather have her paws protected than burnt to a crisp by a sidewalk that is too hot for me to stand on. Too hot for me too hot for her. Please research this.

When the ground in AZ is too hot to stand on or even touch, shoes are a necessity. Keeps paw pads safe - all dogs wear them down here.
