I'm a lawyer, and my best advice is study your a$$ off during your first year, and get the best grades you can. Explain to your family that you will miss Thanksgiving b/c you need to study for exams. I MEAN IT!!!! Tell them now. Your job prospects are in large part determined by your grades your first year. Even jobs several years out. Some firms will NEVER take you if you're not in the top of your class. It's always easier to go to a smaller firm and less money if you want to, but once those first year grades are set in stone, your options may be limited.
Also, to the person who was having problems focusing, try yoga.
