Law school is a scary place. There are gigantic books filled with absurd Latin words and many people who, all things being equal, would prefer that you failed. So from my perch atop the widening gyre of 1L, I’ve decided to lend some advice on how to traverse the pitfalls of law school. 10. Skip […]
READ MOREAttention all Lawyers: Stop Crying
Rumors about the legal profession’s demise have become so common lately that one can almost be faulted for not knowing its dismal state. The WSJ legal blog and Above the Law were among the earliest and most vocal critics of the profession’s future, but recently even the mainstream media have started banging the drum. Both […]
READ MOREHow to Become a Lawyer Without the LSAT (spoiler alert: don’t do it)
When people first look at the LSAT, they often feel great terror, as if they’re looking into the face of some rabid platypus that is going to rip your nuts off with his crazy freak bill. Most people attack the platypus head on with the baseball bat of LSAT study. If you strike the creature […]

So I write you this week from about 3,200 miles above the ground, as I sit on a trans-American flight and pound into my keyboard as hard as possible to annoy the girl in front of me who has decided, despite the fact that it is not even seven o’clock, to recline her seat into […]
READ MOREFebruary 2010 LSAT Recap
Disclaimer I: Apparently, LSAC regulations dictate that I refrain from dispensing any details regarding Saturday’s hateful exam (crazy, right?), so I am limiting my discussion to generalities and I would advise those who post, if and when you do, to follow suit and do the same.

Case in point, on December 25th my sister tried to tell me that the period of 2000-2009 was called the “aughts”, and I promptly informed her that she was an idiot.

READ MOREChoosing a Law School is the Most Important Decision of Your Life
Making choices is a difficult thing for me. Even discounting the omnipresent, everlasting war between burrito and taco, I have a tough time. Do I take the freeway or a side street? Do I drunkenly leap frog this parking meter or do I walk around it like all sober-minded Puritans? Do I go to Vegas […]

Dixie continues her description of law school finals as Phase II continues. Captain’s Log: Day 9 through 12 The days are blending. For the first time in half a decade, I haven’t worn anything other than jeans, a hoodie, and sneakers for almost two weeks. Unfortunately, this time I look less like a casual coed, […]
READ MORETaking the February LSAT
If you took the LSAT in June, September, or earlier this month, you probably have your sights on Fall 2010. Well done on the getting-your-shit-together-on-time front (your apps had better be sent out by now, though, or at least near completion so that they can be sent out shortly after you get your December score).
