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.

anonymous poster, Saturday, 8 January 2005 22:05 (twenty-one years ago)

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)

I work for a judge. Power!

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)

sue me!

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.

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?

no.

Eisbär (llamasfur), Sunday, 12 June 2005 23:20 (twenty-one years ago)

ok my gpa is like a 3.54. i want to work in a think tank.

caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Sunday, 12 June 2005 23:35 (twenty-one years ago)

if you kick ass on the LSATs (basically, get a 170 or better), then i think that you have at least a 50/50 chance of getting into a top law school. maybe not harvard or yale, but possibly somewhere like penn or georgetown.

Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 13 June 2005 00:11 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm in second year law school. my midyear exams (i have four this semester) start tomorrow. all i can say to you right now is RUN WHILE YOU STILL CAN.

Gem I feel you, law exams suck.

Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 13 June 2005 01:07 (twenty-one years ago)

your list seems to be missing finkelstein and partners, 1-800-LAW-AMPM, your law firm working for you

caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Monday, 13 June 2005 01:07 (twenty-one years ago)

now that he is out of law school, my husband recommends it for everyone. Maybe he is just mean though.

teeny (teeny), Monday, 13 June 2005 01:31 (twenty-one years ago)

yer husband is the total opposite of me, then, teeny -- i would recommend law school for NO-ONE. except people that i hate.

Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 13 June 2005 02:11 (twenty-one years ago)

oh come on, law school is fun!

cutty (mcutt), Monday, 13 June 2005 02:23 (twenty-one years ago)

let's learn stuff that has NOTHING to do with being able to practice law!

cutty (mcutt), Monday, 13 June 2005 02:23 (twenty-one years ago)

"now that he is out of law school, my husband recommends it for everyone. Maybe he is just mean though."

This is like when you run a marathon, and the rush of endorphins that come from the pain having stopped make you feel so good that you erroneously assume it was the running itself that produced this feeling, and suddenly you think, "you know, long distance running is rather good isn't it?" Conveniently forgetting that your thoughts two minutes prior were "fuck shit fuck shit fuck shit fuck shit fuck shit..."

Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 13 June 2005 02:39 (twenty-one years ago)

I seem to have missed this, so are you interested in becoming a lawyer, Tim? I get this image of you arguing cases via a combination of grime white labels and references to Baudrillard.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 13 June 2005 02:41 (twenty-one years ago)

i will teach you TEH LAW
