Surviving my first semester of law school

[twodownzero]

The only mistake I made in law school was marrying my first wife.

OUCH!

Congrats, Tim.

Best advise in this thread...don't marry AR Gunner's first wife ??!!??

What do you call 1,000 lawyers on the bottom of the ocean with a weight tied around their ankles?

Edit to add: I forgot...Congrats!

Grumpy I am sure you are just being nice. The answer is a good start.

Congrats on your choice of second career. My daughter is now a 4th year associate and was also a econ. major. Law firms like to hire associates with varying backgrounds with different perspectives instead of just poli-sci majors. Enjoy and good luck with everything you do.

Good job Tim! The first semester is the hardest. After that you get used to the routine and the fear of failure pretty much goes away. Looking back on it, I really enjoyed those three years. Lotsa work, lotsa stress, but well worth it in the end.

and the facts really don't matter so much as the process,

I thought that was applicable to all areas of law

Thanks, Mike. I'm sorry that I didn't get to meet you at the Fall Classic.
