Top Law Schools

1) moved to correct forum
2) not likely very helpful because different profs at different schools may have different expectations; you should hit up 2Ls/3Ls at your school.

(Also, does your school's honor code allow outside help?)

While you reminisce about those hard times you faced, I was wondering if you could find it in your hearts to give back and help your fellow law student out. Would you mind either attaching or PM'ing your memo just so I (or, with your permission, our other fellow 1L students) could get a sense of the overall formatting of your memo? Any tips would be appreciated!

Bonus points if you wrote about a non-compete!

Thanks!

LOL. Our LRW prof at GULC told us not to even respond to "what are you doing tonight" with "working on my memo"

Fuck graded LRW so hard. Soooooo hard.
