Congrats!! I don't have my LWR either, I know the best I can get though is an A- and the worst.. well I'm not sure. I got a B+ on my first memo, I'll be happy with getting that in the class.

Re: 1L Fall Grade Waiting Thread
A- in Torts, B+ in Research (1 credit).... But I fucking got a B in contracts.... and I didn't get an offer after my interview with a federal judge today.... shitty law school day.... I just ate a carton of ice cream. Fuck.
I really hope I can recover with an A in Crim, which I though was my best class, but I am realizing more and more everyday that law school grades are a fucking crapshoot.

Re: 1L Fall Grade Waiting Thread
I think they do give out A+s, but it's up to the prof to decide whether to give them out or not.. so I have no idea now if anyone got one or not. I felt pretty good about civ pro after taking it - the essays were totally open ended questions like "list all the possible motions you can make and discuss your strategy" or something, so I had no idea if I hit all of the right things, but I wrote a ton of stuff and felt good about hitting the important topics. I felt good about the MCs for that too. A lot of the questions I felt like I maybe 70% got right, with a 30% chance I was wrong, with one I thought there was a 50/50 chance I had it right. I didn't want to think about it at all afterward though because I still had torts left, so I didn't check to see if I got it right. I don't even actually remember what I put anymore, so I can't check it now. I thought I did pretty well on torts, except I know I messed one part up. I read accidentally "Please do not discuss defenses" when it really said "please do discuss defenses" for both essay question. It said underneath it "please do not discuss damages" and in a hurry I thought it said not both times. With 10-15 minutes left I reread it and realized I got it wrong, I had to write out a defenses analysis super quickly for all parts of the two questions. So I felt super shitty about that part, but I guess in the end it was a pretty small aspect of the exam. Also in torts we had a group project and an individual project during the semester that accounted for 30% of our grade. I got 25/30 on them together, the median was I think a 22.. so that also helped.adonai wrote:Does your school give out A+?

I'm really jealous of everyone getting grades back. There hasn't been so much as a whisper about ours yet. The suspense is awful.

Congrats to everyone getting their grades back. I think we've still got 2 - 3 weeks left before we get ours, but it's nice to see some TLSers are stomping the curve as per usual.

B+ in torts which comes out to a 3.5. The median is a 2.8 so i'll take it. I was hoping for an A though. Here's to more grades (hopefully?) tomorrow!

So, statistically, it is unlikely that all of us will be above median so I'm not excited about mine.

Starting to feel like shit, wishing I did more over the semester or at least made my own outlines now that I'm starting to see the results for certain other TLSers...

Ugh I'm bored out of my mind. Trying to stay up late just so I sleep in and don't have to go through grade-refresh madness all day tomorrow.

Yeah, I don't either half the time. I do hate my brain though--it works too slow for this law shit.NYC Law wrote: I never have any idea what you're talking about.
