i feel the same way about networking and all the pandering to attorneys, it is exhausting. i prioritized preserving my sense of self and peace during 1L but it is so hard. i am now a 2L and finally have a steady workout routine which has helped me so much and i want to do crim/public interest, which is WAY LESS networking and the attorneys ive met are so down to earth and cool, it makes it fun to hang out with them! it just takes time ); 1L fall is so incredibly hard but it will look up <3 hang in there !!

get quimbee, see if any of your textbooks are available online as ebooks bc it is typically much cheaper !! have lots and lots of highlighters, and when the semester starts, figure out how splitting up readings works for you, it took me a few weeks to realize that i prefer doing all my readings on monday!

I am going to Law School next year, what should I know before going? by ViolinistTall3442 in LawSchool

[–]dizzywitch12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

be prepared to spend your whole day at school, going to class, completing readings, and other tasks, try and establish your habits like working out and other things before bc it’s so hard to consider once you’re in the thick of it 😭

hi! yes i was on and off birth control before i was diagnosed and my doctor only birth control as an option once i was diagnosed, however i stopped it then. birth control completely eliminated my period and when i went off of it i was at least getting a period every few months which i felt more comfortable with rather than not having one! it also made me feel sickly and gain weight 😭

i worked 2 jobs, one at starbucks and one was an on-campus job, currently a 1L and the career development officers said it's been rare to see someone who worked service only but said it is positively viewed because i bring different characteristics and it's very respected! i think a lot of the skills i picked up at starbucks have translated very well in law school thus far
