Classic TLS, smfh

1. Tell the OP to quit, even though it's implied that they're asking for advice to stay in law school.
2. Repeatedly address minutiae within the OP's text, i.e. their reference to "profession", something completely irrelevant to the question.
3. Berate OP on something they can't change by throwing not so subtle jabs at their choice of law school.
4. Include one poster who actually answers OP's question in a constructive way (DeMann).

Yup, sounds about right.

I feel like no one properly prepared me for Law School, and teachers did a shit job of actually letting us know what was testable and what wasn't. Now I understand. Now I can get A's, no problem. My tuition is 5grand a semester, so that's not a problem either. As for job opportunities, I already have one lined up after graduation. Not making the Law Review is a bummer because I was planning on teaching one day (not anymore). But no, "just quit bro" is not advice, its a way of saying "I'm too lazy to analyze this situation so I'll just insult your self worth."
Everyone has this problem. While having a parent who went to law school is helpful, most people have to figure out what's tested and what isn't on their own. There are plenty of resources available to everyone that make it an even playing field, but one of the tricks of law school is to locate and use these materials to your advantage. It's also not the professor's job to teach you, which is something you clearly didn't understand. You can say it's unfair, but I had many college classes where not blindly agreeing with crazy professors got you docked a full letter grade. For example, I commented on a paper in one ridiculous class that it's not conclusive the Bush administration planned 9/11 with citation, but was docked because the CIA reports weren't credible evidence when juxtaposed with the professor's online blog, which was conclusive evidence. In law school, all you have to do is figure out how to take tests, and not offend the professor.
Wait, your professor was a 9/11 truther?
This is definitely burying the lede.
Yeah, that's legitimately a situation where I'd be talking to the dean about my grade.

Technically this is non-responsive as luckenmeister didn't ask a question.
