I did terrible in Law School again brehs

[ÆTHER]

You've been on the Coli for 436 days yet have ~80,200 posts. Fam, that implies you post ~184 messages a day. Assuming conservatively that each message takes 30 seconds to post, you're spending at least an hour and a half a day on the coli just posting messages (that's not including time spent reading shyt). The Coli is your extracurricular smh.

You've gotta start thinking about what this shyt means for your future. Do you want a family? Imagine your kids having less opportunity in life because their pops was on the coli 2-3 hours a day . One day you're kids are going to be old enough to do the math between what you're doing with your life and what you actually could have been doing...let's hope they love you enough to not let the show.

You're squandering an opportunity to put you and your fam in the top like .005% of people who have ever lived in terms of financial comfort. You're going to feel like a fukking idiot in your 30s if you don't pull it together breh.

I think you should double check those numbers man. You busted out the calculator for nothing.

B/B+ Depending on the school
Law school grades on curves

So that's the median grade right? Half of the people did worse than you did right? Keep your head up and stop bieng a bytch

 

[Originalman]

Making crazy bread...

I don’t know shyt about law but can’t you get a job in a related lower paying position and finesse a job after a few years of experience
That’s my plan anyways, I’ll be lucky if I graduate with a 2.7

You can just tell the nikka hates his life to sit up here and check a post count and type all this

You know what they call the person who graduated medical school with the worst grades in his class?

Spoiler

A doctor.

Grades don't even matter in the real world at all. If you get the degree and pass the bar, that's all that matters. Just finish the shyt, breh

I heard this a lot when I was getting ready to graduate. I was not in law or medical school, but I am a licensed professional. Even with my license, when I went out for my first job, every place I applied to wanted my school transcripts. I would imagine what you do in school impacts whether you land internships or your first job.

OP you sound like you are giving up on yourself. I say don't give up yet, it's better to show improvement now (your grades start low, but you show they improved as you progressed through the program) rather than give up and never have the opportunity to practice law.

you right I should be kissing cac ass

I asked this question before and you ignored it, why didn’t you go to a black law school?

Anyway, there is always CARPLS, OP

Is this going to become a yearly or bi-yearly thing? What do you want? A pity party? This is some sucka ass shyt. Don't you have any boys that you can talk to? SMH. Man up, work your hardest and move on. No point dwelling on what you can't change. If you work hard for your 3 B's and 2 B+'s take it and move on. If your only reason for going to law school was to get to Big Law, then you're f'd yourself over regardless. I have friends that are making 135k + in IT and cloud computing who work from home, can take random days off and aren't nearly as stressed as you are. If you would have chose law for the right reasons you wouldn't be here. But yet here we are, another thread complaining about how you won't get Big Law.

And this is coming from a dude who was going to to go to a Top 6 law school and completely change directions. Figure out your life and stop complaining. It's not a good look.

You post too much on here. Log off

they arent considered 'prestigious' and you have to finish at the top of your class to even sniff big law

 

[Neuromancer]

I have no talent whatsoever for the law

Talent? For making convincing arguement's?

By whom? White people?

On one hand, it appears that you hate white people, can’t stand to be around them, don’t want to kiss their ass, and yet, you still are still concerned about “prestige” which is basically a ranking system based off of the opinions of the same people that you hate. And their opinions of blacks schools are obviously weighty enough to you that you would consider them in your decision to not attend one.

There is inconsistency there. If you really cared about black people (and really can’t stand to be around white people), and wanted to pursue law, their opinions about our law schools would not even be a consideration.

Additionally, if you had good enough LSATs to get into NU, then you no doubt would have been ranked high at a black law school since traditionally, the reason why their rankings aren’t so high, is because their students LSATs are so low, and you know their is a systemic reason for that. You obviously test well ahead of the curve so I have no doubt you would have been ranked high enough to catch the attention of a white shoe at a black school.

Grades only matter for your first job after graduation (and even then, you can get by with mediocre grades if you have connections). After my first corporate job, I've never once had any potential employer ask for my grades....not one! I got straight As during my MA and PhD programs, so I'm not salty because I didn't get good grades, it's just that good grades don't equate to being a good employee. Experience is much more important than grades. Grades don't mean shyt. shyt, no brag, but I just smoked weed all day when I was taking classes in college. Classes are easy. Papers are easy. Tests are easy. Doing a 120 hour project and report at a corporation is much more difficult than reading a book and doing exercises.

If I had the choice of hiring a PhD graduate with straight As and no relevant work experience vs. an undergrad with straight Bs, but a lot of relevant work experience, I'm going with the undergrad.

If this is what you think my post means then yeah, you're a troll account.

I’m convinced breh is trolling shyt dnt ass up.

Regardless if he ain’t, he say the coli is his extra curricular and socializing. And if that’s true he got a lot more problems than being a troll. That’s depressing.

That's pretty much what I was saying, they matter for the first job.
