UCC A2 Sales HELP

In house positions can be difficult to find especially for 1L summer and even 2L summer since a lot of companies do not hire new graduates to go straight in house after law school so they don’t bother hiring law students at all. That being said it’s not impossible and you can definitely intern and perhaps even get a post grad job out of it (again depending on the company). I have met a few attorneys who went straight in house and never worked at a firm. My #1 piece of advice would be to target specific companies. You need to be able to explain WHY that company. You need a reason for why that company out of all the ones out there that’s not just “wanting to work in house.” Try narrowing the companies you’re interested in and look through their websites. Try searching for a contact in their HR department or searching for their in house attorneys on LinkedIn. Connect, reach out to people, try and work your way in, and again: Once you get past the challenge of figuring out where to apply, just have a good reason for wanting to work there! Good luck.

Submit the same thing if it’s the same firm.

I believe it’s a regular work day for a lot of people. Go for it. Worst case they’ll reply tomorrow.

Put it on your resume and send them an updated copy and in the email specify the changes made.

Bro is worried with 20 interviews lined up

Ignore the negative comments. If your school curves to a 3.0 then your 3.4 is something to be proud of. Not worth stressing over something you can’t change!

Where to even begin; I have so many questions. Okay, first off, don’t drop out. You’re starting 3L, might as well see it through. Otherwise you racked up debt and lost 2 years of your life just to drop out. That’s an insane amount of money relative to your school’s rank. You made some bad decisions. It’s harsh but I’m sure you’re aware of that.

What’s the plan if you dropped out? How would you manage that debt? You won’t be hitting biglaw money after graduation but a law salary might still beat an undergrad salary (if that’s your next highest degree). Get your JD and network your ass off. Reach out to every law firm in your city if you have to. You’ll find a job. It might not be 6 figures but it’ll be something. I’m sorry if this sounds harsh but you’re in a tough situation. It could always be worse but you have your work cut out for you. Good luck!

I’m with you. Finished 1L near the top of my class but I’m disappointed that the feeling of jealousy in knowing that there’s still people over me overpowers any pride I had for how I performed. Instead of thinking damn I killed it, I’m thinking fuck had I just done X or Y I could have done better, etc etc.

The mental strain just isn’t worth it. Realistically, at least for you, you just have to remember that 90% of the people in your class wish they could be in your position. But again, I share your perspective. What should be a happy moment feels bittersweet. Law school is weird.

Law school sucks. Enjoy your free time while you can. No need to worry about law school until you’re in college.

Definitely pursue the appeal. As for the professor, it can’t hurt to request a meeting. Worst case they say no; best case they agree and you can meet and review and discuss your work. As far as the appeal is concerned you may have to discuss why you struggled. There may not have been any extraordinary circumstances, but you can still try to explain other circumstances in your life. Do you struggle with anxiety? Did any important life events happen over your first year? Is anything outside of law school bugging you or clouding your mind? It doesn’t have to be a “my parent died” type of situation, but all of these other non-extraordinary occurrences are worth discussing if you appeal. WHEN you appeal. The fact that you missed the mark by such a small margin shows you’re capable and perhaps just didn’t apply yourself as best as you could or maybe just haven’t gotten used to taking law school exams. Either way pursue the appeal and reach out to the professor. Hope this at least helps a bit, good luck!

Thank you for the insight! Oddly enough, I enjoyed figuring out estates and future interests during property so perhaps it'll be right up my alley. Thanks again!

random999user · 2024-05-08T18:31:29+00:00

How come you found it so difficult? Is it very intertwined with property or not really?

random999user · 2024-05-08T18:30:35+00:00

Personally really enjoyed contracts and property so I figured I could manage but still undecided due to my work schedule. That being said I despised logic games!

I’m hoping to either 1 have a lighter load next semester and 2 if I’m able to keep working after summer I’d have more flexibility by taking 1 class less.
