Top Law Schools

I'm a 3L in a JD/LLM program with a firm SA next summer. Every semester of law school, I've taken 14-16 credits. I only need 8 to graduate in the spring, but I intend to register for a full course load. However, my favorite professor is offering a non-credit advanced version of his specialty for interested students. It would be about 3 credits of work, just not final or record on my transcript. As of now, I'm registered for 11 credits and on the wait-list for 2 more credits. Will my firm consider it slacking off if I just took the minimum to stay full-time of 12 credits? I could explain if they asked that it is really 15 credits with this guy's non-credit course factored in, but I'm afraid they won't ask and will just ding me as being lazy.

Firms do not care about how many classes your take nor do they care (outside of a handful of exceptions) what classes you take. So long as you take enough credits to: (a) graduate and (b) meet your school's full time student requirement you're fine.

Thanks.
