crankdatbatman posted:I want to waste three years of my life Well, none of those schools are going to get you a law-related job unless you are one of the top 10 people in the class. Do not count on being one of these people because other people have full tuition scholarships and are equally, if not more qualified than you, a lot of it is luck, and there will be people there willing to work harder/be smarter than you. I would not consider there to be a difference in prestige in any of those schools either because they are all garbage. If you absolutely insist on doing this, go to one of the schools that gave you full tuition because then at least you will be unemployed with a relatively small amount of debt. Also what do you think doing "considerably well" on the LSAT means? Nero fucked around with this message at 17:59 on Feb 5, 2012 |

entris posted:I have a drink or two, so that my thirty minutes of free time every night is actually relaxing. I totally understand the "work hard play hard" mentality now. When I had tons of free time in school, relaxing was just sitting around playing video games or something. Now, I'll be damned if my two hours of free time in a given week aren't filled with alcohol, drugs, speedboats, hookers, explosions, Rocky IV, shotguns, car chases, base jumping, and sharks. All at the same time.

So jealous of people taking the bar in the summer. My advice- buy last years barbri books, do not open them til june, read four hours a day in june, six a day in july, do nothing but study last two weeks. Success! Ideally you want to get to the point where i can say "secured transactions" and you can cover a page of notebook paper in arcane bullshit

Strangers on the internet I passed the Illinois bar! And to think six months ago I was worried about getting eaten by bears in Missouri. Now all I want to do is take bar exams, because everybody talks about how time-consuming and hard they are and I get to be like "yeah man gotta study" and then get to go home and drink all day and call of duty run on sentences. Midwest midlaw for life

The Warszawa posted:Con law is always the worst 1L fall class because it inevitably becomes a policy debate class where the Constitution just happens to mandate people's policy preferences and proscribe what they don't like. My con law class was indistinguishable from a critical race studies class. It did make it easier in that i didnt have to learn anything about the constitution at any point. Our teacher even told the one conservative in the class who cared enough to talk to stop raising his hand.

Stop posted:I wish I went to UCLA Last I heard the teacher went to Stanford or Boalt. Highlight of the class was super sheltered A+ overachiever girl not understanding what "fisting" or something was during discussion re gay sex and googling it from front row of class. Guess somebody didnt keep safe search on. Nero fucked around with this message at 03:30 on Apr 21, 2012 |

Linguica posted:Yeah but why should anyone care what SCOTUS says? You need a citation to the Constitution, vesting the judicial power of the United States in a supreme court. And probably a citation to the Judiciary Act of 1789 to show that SCOTUS is in fact the real one, not some sort of anti-pope pretender court. And then cite the Constitution again for the proposition that Congress had the vested authority to pass the Judiciary Act. What if the bluebook like, cited itself!?!

Whenever someone tells me they billed 2500 hours last year or were in the office 5am to midnight yesterday or something, I feel like they are looking for "wow good job thats impressive!" but all i can think is "oh my God you poor man"

Roger_Mudd posted:Well the motion for sanctions was warranted in this case because: a) I called them the day before to ask why they hadn't filed their business record affidavits yet (it was passed the time to do so) b) they told me they would file a motion for continuance c) I informed them that I would opposed said motion d) I find out they had filed the motion via a notice from the court stating that the motion for continuance was granted. Like most motions for sanctions, it comes down to "i think the other guy is a jerk"

HiddenReplaced posted:What? People calling ibankers the devil I get, but now you're demonizing small business owners? What the gently caress is wrong with you? He makes money by threatening small business owners that he will bankrupt them if they don't comply with one of the more byzantine federal laws, so I imagine if he doesn't demonize them it makes him feel bad (for being a bad person) (for $).

I thought the ADA had a million regulations about the height of doorknobs and stuff. I admit it, the only things I know about the ADA are from a CLE I spent daydreaming about not being a lawyer, and am duly chastised. But seriously gently caress the byzantines

On the journal/moot court thing: Law review looks way better than moot court or any other journal on your résumé, but it is a HUGE amount of work and very time consuming. Moot court doesn't look as good, but you are 100% done with it after like 2 weeks of work and it doesn't keep coming back and asking you to cite check things all year. I would recommend moot court over a secondary journal personally, because unless you have a major role on the secondary journal (which means lots of work) then doing moot court takes waaaaay less of your time and looks about the same.

Fuzzie Dunlop posted:For a 1L, is it worth doing anything about WestLaw or LexisNexis points? If I use one service over the other, with minimal additional effort, will I eventually earn anything worthwhile? It is not worth the time or effort. Just use whatever and get your useless kitchen instrument after three years like everyone else.

I graduated from UCLA law in 2011. It went well for some people, badly for others. Get PMs and we can talk.
