They get better after 1L mostly because you stop caring nearly as much. This is coming from a 3L who has 3 finals over the next 7 days and has dicked around the internet all morning.
One more meme…..
I’d hope so. I can’t imagine anything worse than the 9 hour civ pro final I took today.
It’s a point of pride for all of the alumni of her class. She’s notorious for this final. I told a few 2Ls on the first day of orientation she’s my teacher and they just laughed and said good luck with the final.
I can see that, but Jesus you can explain a shit ton about jurisdiction in a lot less time than that. The professor is just being an awful person at that point.
She’s a great teacher, don’t get me wrong. Harvard alum and all. But the test walks us through an entire trial, pre-trial motions all the way to the post-trial motions and in excruciating detail as well.
9 hours that’s hell, and unnecessary! At my school finals are limited to the number of hours the class is worth. So in a 4 hour Civ Pro class the final is 4 hours long.
Best advice I can give you is to write out as many hypos as you can. You’ll get faster at answering questions and become more comfortable with the material. Also if you’re looking for practice exams go to Pepperdine University Law Library website. They have literally the best collection of old 1L exams. Good luck and always remember: the curve is ruthless
Kentucky has a decent buch as well
Bunch*, just got out of an exam braindead and can’t spell
Just wait until the bar exam.
I’ll add to my earlier comment that it gets better until it gets much, much worse
To quote my grandfather who just retired after 34 years on the bench: “I’ve lost my life savings twice, went broke in the coal business, lost mortgage payments on high stakes basketball games, taken a paternity test at 63, and been under federal investigation more than once and I’ve learned one thing. Those things aren’t what turned my hair white, it was the bar exam I took in July of 1961.”
Paternity test at 63.? SLAYYY
Spoiler alert: I took my 11 year old uncle deer hunting for the first time this year.
Shooters shoot.
