Top Law Schools

Posting here because I am not sure where else to, and I thought the legal employment thread could yield the most informed responses. 2L here, currently enrolled in corporations (4 cr.), evidence (4 cr.), tax I (4 cr.) and 2 other courses that are fillers (4 cr. total). I'm wondering if I am biting off more than I can chew by taking tax? I have heard it is among the hardest, if not the hardest, courses to take in law school, particularly for those without a financial undergrad. I want to do transactional work, likely in the commercial/corporate field, and tax is a pre-req for pretty much every class I want to take.

Context -- I am transferring into T14, and though I am smart/work hard/etc., I believe that I may be setting myself up for failure (not literally, but maybe), by such a heavy course load in my first semester with 16 total credits, three of which are four credit courses which can make or break my GPA. I appreciate any and all responses.

Drop evidence.

If you're going to GULC, there's a safe bet that those two 2-credit classes will ruin your life in terms of unfair workload. A 4 cred class could go up to 70 pages of reading per night (but probably won't), but I'd be terrified of how much you'll end up doing with a couple of 2 credit classes on top. Personally I would never willingly go over 14 if I could help it (they made us do 16 second semester and it was death).

substantively none of those BLL classes are uniquely difficult. You can read the E&E at the end and snag a median grade if that's what you're looking to do. Obviously different professors can make things difficult, but the classes by themselves won't crush you.

How many units do you need to graduate?
