You started law school, attended your first couple of weeks of classes, and are trying to stay caught up with studying. There is certainly no shortage of work to do! This begs the question, is all of the work you’re putting in now going to translate to success on final exams? In this blog post, we focus on how to get good grades in law school. Read on for some tips and tricks for law school success!
If you’re starting law school this fall, the first day of class will be here before you know it. Complete this pre 1L checklist so you can hit the ground running once classes begin.
Did you recently get into law school? If so, congratulations! With a major hurdle passed, you still have a few demanding (but very rewarding!) years ahead of you. The summer before law school is a busy time, during which you may be moving to a new area, working a full-time or part-time job, visiting friends and family, going on vacations, and so on. In the midst of all that, as day one of your 1L semester of law school nears, you may be wondering what to expect and how to prepare. You may even feel nervous or anxious, which is completely normal! The good news is that there are a number of things you can do to prepare before law school over the summer and set yourself up to succeed. One of the best ways though is summer reading!
As we head to the end of the summer, those starting law school are likely working through some nerves and excitement. Many law schools have an orientation for 1Ls before classes begin in the fall. Assuming that your law school hosts a 1L orientation, you might be asking what it’s all about or whether it’s worth going to. The short answer: definitely plan to go (and your law school might even mandate that you attend!). Below, we discuss what to expect at law school orientation.
We are excited to share with you that we have a new free webinar on how to succeed in law school as a first-year law student!
This webinar is led by our prelaw and application expert, Rachel Margiewicz. Our goal is to prepare you on how to navigate law school with success!

If you are unable to attend this webinar live, do not worry! We will be recording the webinar and sending it out to all of those who registered by August 2nd, 2023.
We look forward to seeing you there!
