Thanks for your posts guys. As you could tell, I'm very distraught/was distraught. I'm considering transferring if it's possible. Most transfer deadlines are past now. I have an exam on Monday, so I'll deal with it after that. I was just hoping I could enjoy the couple free summer weeks I have a head of me, but it's looking like that's not going to happen....

If you aren't happy there you should definitely try to transfer. Sometimes it's just not the right school for you. I don't know of anyone who transferred from my class but thejuanupsman had a friend who transferred after a dismal first year and it was a great move for him. He ended up at a school he loved and because the school was a better fit for him he ended up doing really well the next two years and got a really great job after school.

I wouldn't worry that much about law review. Lots of people who didn't get on it have gone on to do really great things. Also a lot of people who were on law review have gone on to have mediocre or dismal careers. Just focus on getting the most you can out of school and you'll be fine.

Hates Law School

Did not make law review. Only kids in the top 26 out of 196 made it. So much for 50% grades, 50% written submission. It's all a bunch of bullshit. I read a handful of the submissions that made it and they were fucking book reports! I've never been so disillusioned with the educational process. It makes me fucking sick.

Sincerely,
FUCK...

What SN said. The higher up you go, the more actual merit matters less and personal connections matter more. And not just personal connections, but preferences, opinions, and popularity.

Have you befriended a professor today?
heracleitus:
Though I haven't even started law school, and hoping to sell a screenplay shortly after I begin so I can potentially drop out, the exposure through a girlfriend and roommate's girlfriend was enough to make me think none too highly of writing for the law.

It seems 25% your own logic or opinions and 75% basing of that logic and opinions on the legal precedents set by others in the past. I bet it was cool to be a judge or a lawyer when the nation was young...

To clarify my last (technically 2nd to last) post:

Start around 4:40 for the relevant part, but I find it all quite funny. Anywho, probably should have just posted the video to begin with.

SockPuppet, don't know if you just don't find him funny, or if there is something on the other side of the pond I'm unaware of, but I laughed my fucking...

What's your blog?

I don't hate him but I guess I don't appreciate his humor as much as you do. I like subtle. tongue

OK, last post, comedy routine, probably should have made that more obvious. I thought it was hilarious, apparently, I'm in the minority.

I was coming to ask how 1L went, but four A's? Goodness. I didn't get four A's my entire law school career. How are you spending your summer? Find an internship?

Torts II: Prof. is the President of the Honors Program, faculty advisor to law review, tenured, and supposedly the hardest grading professor in the school (whatever that means really, but I'll take it). Demanded well reasoned answers and not just puking up "the rules."

How did I do?
One of four As. That's right bitches. EMOX is feeling proud of himself.

As far as the...

You were away when SP passed. It was over New Year's. It was eerie because of the previous New Year's when he got hurt.

Not me sadly. Not even a pic I took. I do have some permit pics around somewhere, but I was too lazy to resize and upload them at that hour.
I only regret I couldn't google a pic of a homeless guy with a permit. A little photoshopping might have been in order, but see above comment regarding lazy. wink

How have you been, my friend ? Haven't seen you around in a long time.
Hope you're doing well. smile

I wish I had time to actually read the boards let alone respond.

Anyway, for those of you actually aware that I'm even around these days: As of today I'm officially finished with Civ Pro for the rest of my life (yeee haaw). Just three more to go, then I get to write a 15 page note for law review, then I get to stumble...
