Thanks guys. I feel like I need one of those mind erasers from Men in Black. Stop worrying about the last test and move on to the next one.

not to get you guys obsessed about it, but iirc they came out a few days ahead in the past few years. so maybe the 7th or 8th. Pretty sure the school gives the professors some deadline for 1L grades and then once they have them all the registrar released - so if no hiccups, could be early.

My bet is on the 7th--two days early like last Fall. If not, then definitely the 8th--one day early like in the Spring. Have fun refreshing Student Center.

Do the people who get Bs and B minuses generally feel bad after a test? Because I feel pretty good but I'm not sure if there's any correlation in law school between how you feel and how you actually did.

There is no correlation, really. I've done well on tests I thought I bombed, and gotten B+ where I've felt I did poorly. I will say, if you really feel like you tanked it (like, couldn't answer a question or something) then you probably did. If you gave cogent and thoughtful responses and were prepped for any MPC, I'd feel confident saying you won't get below a B+. But who knows, someone is getting those Bs.

Also, Lavitz - I scooped your predictions

Is it really scooping if I quoted your post and added my own thoughts?

To, once again, add to this, I felt really good about property and it was my lowest grade. The curve works in mysterious ways. Maybe you did so well that you CALI'd the class, or maybe it was just an easy test, everyone feels good, and you're headed for B+ city. Hard to tell, so no matter how you feel after each test, just ignore it and keep studying hard.

New section spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/a/cornell.edu/s ... sp=sharing

Some of you have weird schedules. Lawyering on Mondays?!

Thanks Lavitz! Shouldn't you be asleep right now though? Also the title of the spreadsheet should be Spring 2015.

So, I know my professors thanks to the spring semester schedule posted on Cornell's website, but is there a way to find out our class details/number so that we can look at required books?

If you're in the ACF supersection for next semester then the books you need(for Underkuffler and Ohlin) are listed on the Cornell Store's website. http://textbooks.store.cornell.edu/Text ... ourse.aspx

The books for the other supersection haven't been posted.

Garvey's the same as Ohlin, and Sherwin's book is listed here: http://support.law.cornell.edu/students ... eBooks.cfm

I could do another month off, honestly. 2 weeks in and I am still not bored of doing nothing.

I saw activity in this thread, thought that's what was going on. That is enough internet for tonight.

You severely overestimated the registar.

It was around 2:30pm last year. It was also 2 days after the registrar got back in the office / 2 days before scheduled release date, so that would be tomorrow (today).

Happy refreshing!

Haha thank you for divining the question I was too embarrassed to ask and then answering it, Lavitz! Another query, do they come out together or trickle in?
