Heh. I'm halfheartedly studying Employee Benefits (Retirement Plans) now, as I post. Instead of being a nice fluffy last semester, it's turning out pretty shit as a result of this statutory morass.

i got some of my best l-school grades in my Employee Benefits & Qualified Plans Taxation classes. then again, i'm twisted.

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 9 February 2004 22:35 (twenty-two years ago)

but yeah, ERISA is one of the most fucked-up statutes out there ... and then there's the attendant case-law and regs.

(files away knowledge of Eisbar's employee benefits expertise for future reference in 3 month's time)

― amateur!!st, Tuesday, 24 August 2004 18:25 (twenty-one years ago)

I sometimes think about it. but less and less these days.

― adam. (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 18:39 (twenty-one years ago)

I just started two weeks ago. It's friggin' hard, especially on top of a day job. But I'm liking it so far.

I managed to be safe, but I do plan on spilling my latte on my keyboard later.

― Danzig and Jeanne-Claude (deangulberry), Saturday, 8 January 2005 22:13 (twenty-one years ago)

I should talk to Cozen about this.

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Saturday, 8 January 2005 22:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Ok, I lied. I actually ended up spilling Pellegrino on my printer. Good times.

― American Apparel and Jeanne-Claude (deangulberry), Sunday, 9 January 2005 01:50 (twenty-one years ago)

there is a philadelphia BIGLAW firm known as COZEN. so the fact that ILX's own COZEN wants to be a lawyer has always kinda amused me.

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Sunday, 9 January 2005 04:45 (twenty-one years ago)

Dean, do the other lawyers find you funny?

― .adam (nordicskilla), Sunday, 9 January 2005 20:29 (twenty-one years ago)

I thought about going to law school earlier on this thread, but really, fuck that!

― .adam (nordicskilla), Sunday, 9 January 2005 20:29 (twenty-one years ago)

pussy.

― cutty (mcutt), Sunday, 9 January 2005 20:46 (twenty-one years ago)

for how long does one need to study before taking the LSAT? on average?

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Sunday, 12 June 2005 17:29 (twenty-one years ago)

BUMP where is lawyers? i want to talk about lawyering.

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Sunday, 12 June 2005 21:08 (twenty-one years ago)

I actually ended up spilling Pellegrino on my printer.

This was bad news.

oh dean.

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Sunday, 12 June 2005 21:17 (twenty-one years ago)

It's wacky, I tell you. Go to law school for the Pellegrino.

― something about a tarantula coming out of a coconut (deangulberry), Sunday, 12 June 2005 21:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I might be lawyers, next year.

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 12 June 2005 21:25 (twenty-one years ago)

i hardly studied for the lsat. so.. not long. but if you have a good undergraduate GPA and want to go to a top law school, i recommend taking some sort of course.

― cutty (mcutt), Sunday, 12 June 2005 21:32 (twenty-one years ago)

I hate how you have to choose a country and stick to it, with this, though.

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 12 June 2005 21:37 (twenty-one years ago)

what is a "good undergraduate GPA"? i don't think i have the dollars to go to Top Law School. also, what if i want to go to law school in canada? can i do that?

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Sunday, 12 June 2005 21:41 (twenty-one years ago)

no.

― cutty (mcutt), Sunday, 12 June 2005 22:43 (twenty-one years ago)

i had an OK undergrad GPA (3.1), but a decent LSAT (164). the only l-school that i wanted to go to that i didn't get into was NYU -- which didn't surprise me. the "best" l-school that i got into w/ my numbers was Fordham.

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Sunday, 12 June 2005 22:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Can one do okay at a decent law school on a sixty-hour workweek? Sixty-five?
