Law School was hard for me.
I had always been a decent student, but I had a hard time getting into the material. I was interested in the law, and still am, but I had found myself struggling to get engaged.
My grades suffered that first semester.
I knew I had to do something, and decided to start reaching out to attorneys that practiced in the areas of the courses that I was taking. When I was taking employment law, I connected with an employment attorney. When I was taking family law, I connected to a family law attorney. When I was taking environmental law, I connected with an environmental lawyer.
I found the conversations unbelievably helpful. They were interesting, and I was able to better conceptualize what I was learning.
After that, classes became much easier. I went on to make Dean's List every other semester.
I owe that not because I learned how to best study for an exam, but because I combined the theoretical with the practical.
My advice to law students, get going on that right away.
