Why is it that people say it's easier to do well in LLM heavy classes? Does this tend to be true across the board?

i would imagine it's because the majority of LLMs are ESL and that you have a significant built-in advantage there

They're mostly here to party, don't always have a great command of English, and aren't familiar with the idiosyncrasies of U.S. law school exams (like raising silly issues for extra points). In LLM-heavy classes you're pretty much guaranteed a B+ or higher.
