I'm so jealous that you guys have your grades out already. It's week 3 and I'm still waiting for 3 more grades to come out. It's driving me crazy, and it's definately getting in the way of finished this memo.


:(

My percentile dropped a bit.. top third though. Could be worse.

I've been dying to able to post in this thread...
 

So, last year I got accepted to lawschool and decided not to attend that particular one and wait to reapply for fall '07. Well...I just got a call from the Dean of Admissions from one of my top choices notifying me of my acceptance!!!!!

Thank you!! :D

Congratulations, that's great news.

In other news, got my grades back, and I'm very happy. I even did really well in the impossible class that everyone was dreading.

However, there were lots of upset people when grades came out yesterday. You could just tell by people's faces how they had done.

This client counseling/negotiation class I have (required 1L) is really good, but it's certainly driving home that I'm just a 1L and have a TON to learn.

GPA goes down .03, class rank goes down 3. Sneaky.

Yeah, I'm wondering how it's going to work for my class; I heard the GPAs are usually bunched up pretty tightly.

They really are - there's clusters around certain GPAS.

What is with 3Ls who still raise their hands in every single class every single day? :rolleyes:

When I was in law school we had a 12 point scale. I think 100 or 4.0 makes much more sense. At least people are more accustomed to that.

We called them "helium hand" ;)

That stinks, I was hoping it would stop after 1L.

Some of them do, but the others view it as an opportunity to fill in the void. There are two people in my family law class who are dueling to see who can talk the most. We're starting a little game where when one of them raises their hand, somebody in my row will sneeze, and when the other one does, somebody will cough. I've never been above making juvenile noises in class to shut up the gunners.
