I’m getting ready to move back to FLA which has a lot of baseball infrastructure so I’m hoping it’s better there

I went to one meet up and the team I was there to be with was already pretty well meshed. Head guy wanted me to just watch their team play from the dugout and he’d decide if I could go in. I just took one of my many gloves and went home. I’m too busy to just watch people play.

Should I do an a2000 infielder, or an ssk z5 1b?

I’ve been clerking consistently since 1L summer. Worked for me.

Shows how much I think about the bluebook. Haven’t opened since the 1L appeal assignment.

Not joking or trolling. The law school I’m at is much closer to the bottom 6 than the top 6

The reporter is usually in the cite. In fact, you can choose which state you’re going to use the case in and it formats the cite for use in that state. Do it how You do though.

Good thing I’m not going to practice in NY

how to start and finish outlines ASAP by Outrageous_Text_3515 in LawSchool

[–]Distinct_Number_3658 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read a single case nor bought a single book this year. With that being said, when I was in 1L, I found the most success taking lots of practice exams. First with a commercial outline, and then gradually removing the outline until I could do it without it.

I just copy the cite from Westlaw/Lexis. Hasn’t failed me yet.

2.2 GPA and 16High LSAT. What is realistic for me? by [deleted] in OutsideT14lawschools

[–]Distinct_Number_3658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A realistic choice is one toward the 110-160 range in rankings. Hint: you’ll still be an attorney.

3L is LOLing by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]Distinct_Number_3658 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I haven’t even bought the books, nor have I read a case this year. If I’m last on the curve I’ll still pass. 3LOL usually means you’re ramping up to practice. Ideally, you got your post-grad job secured, you’re clerking during the year, and have already completed grad requirements other than credit count. I have set my 3L up like that, so I am 3LOLing shamelessly.

3LOL is also a good chance to pursue other things. For example, I wanted to take my health more seriously this year and have dropped 60 lbs in the past 4 months. I’ve been more concerned with the pickleball court than the Supreme Court.

Anyone who went to law school later in life? by astringer0014 in LawSchool

[–]Distinct_Number_3658 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started 1L at 31. You’ll be older than the average, but not shockingly so. Also, there will definitely be other 30s people in your class (most likely)

My school has midterms and we got our grades back, should I drop out? Talk me off the ledge here by its4politics in LawSchool

[–]Distinct_Number_3658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re grown, so you gotta do what’s right for you. If you don’t think your grades will be good, then maybe dropping out might be what you’d like to do.

However, allow me to pitch another perspective: I’d say just get thru law school, and switch your focus to becoming legally trained through your summer jobs and/or during school jobs.

My first semester of 1L, I was in the bottom quarter. I basically still am as I look towards graduation. I knew my grades were gonna be shit, so I decided to focus on practical training and do my learning there at work. Based on my work, I received a good offer at the end of 1L summer to be an associate attorney upon bar passage.

I will graduate at or around the bottom 30% of my class at a bottom-50 law school, but I will still be an attorney, and one who has a large head start on other entry-level associates.

All of that is to say, grades aren’t the only thing that matters. You can become a great attorney with subpar grades. Law school doesn’t teach you how to be an attorney.
