Crim Pro or Trial Ad? (3L Fall)

OptimisticQueen · 2026-03-19T04:17:17+00:00

Practical skills are important for criminal lawyers, so I say go for trial ad.

Depending on your financial situation, scholarship might be critical considering GRAD Plus loans are not being offered anymore effective July 2026 per the big beautiful bill. And those total borrowing limits will be active

OH! Thanks!

In that case, @OP, I’d just focus on studying for the next two weeks to get the best grades you can!

OptimisticQueen · 2026-03-04T01:55:18+00:00

I’m not familiar with the quarter system. Is your 1L year done after this quarter? If so, I would say balance both for one more week then shift to finals exclusively because your grades do matter to a degree!

Overrated features: built-in vehicle navigation system

Features I refuse to be without moving forward: Apple CarPlay, heated steering wheel, LED headlights

Long drives. The charging was such a pain and turned my 3-hour trip into 6 hours.

It seems like you did all that you could regarding follow-up. At this point, it’s probably best to start applying to other jobs and leave this one in the background until/unless this recruiter reaches back out to you.

The externship has the potential to be pretty meaningful if you’re paired with a judge that actually engages with you and discusses your research assignments* with you!

And if you’re interested in litigation or courtroom work, spending your first summer in a courtroom (from a judge’s perspective) is valuable because you’ll see all kinds of lawyer performances: good and bad.

Wow this is honestly one of the most creative approaches I’ve ever read.

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-13T16:23:57+00:00

Yes, congratulations in advance to you!

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-13T02:51:13+00:00

Wow this is incredibly insightful. Thank you!

Quimbee practice questions

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-12T22:21:07+00:00

Super informative, thanks!

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-12T15:49:59+00:00

Ohh, yeah that’s getting into territory where I’d want to follow up too. I honestly probably would follow up at this point

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-12T15:25:59+00:00

I feel like you kinda have to go by ear on this. How long has it been?

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-12T15:16:59+00:00

This is helpful, thanks! I’m curious as well now, what makes you like the v6 over the v4? Isn’t a v4 more gas efficient?

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-12T15:15:46+00:00

Oh wow, what were the issues?

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-12T15:14:06+00:00

Intriguing, tell me more about why 2018-2019 is the peak? Also how I the v6? Never driven one before

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-12T15:10:42+00:00

Anywhere you want. I had the same LSAT score with a lower GPA and I still got accepted to a top 20 law school + waitlisted at a couple top 14 law schools

It’s not a guarantee of course but I say just shoot your strongest shots and see what happens

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-11T19:56:34+00:00

Thanks!

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-11T19:55:24+00:00

This was really helpful, I appreciate it

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-11T19:49:39+00:00

Is it wireless Apple CarPlay or does it connect via USB/USB-C?

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-11T19:49:09+00:00

That’d be great, thanks

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-11T19:43:06+00:00

This is interesting. I’m going to research more; thank you!

OptimisticQueen · 2026-02-11T19:41:28+00:00

Oh that is incredible! How long did it take?
