need corporations first semester of 2L as a pre-req for a spring class i want to take but not sure what else to take, I know corps fall 2L is a bad choice for this but want my traditional law school classes like evidence and tax or whatever to not coincide with when the gunners are taking them if possible
I wouldn't worry about gunners in large doctrinal classes. There are only so many of them, and it frankly evens out in the huge classes.
FWIW, I did nothing in Corporations all semester and did fine.

If you just make it to quarterfinals I think you get an offer. Some might even get one outside of that.

That would be nice - there were 36 of us in quarterfinals which seems like a good number.
Yeah you're in unless you did something catastrophically bad like pee yourself while making unblinking eye contact with the judges.

If you already know you're going to GULC is ASW worth it? I live in town so I've seen the campus before.
Serious question: is this after hours thing at Kelley's Irish Times cool or lame?

Probably not really necessary, but tbf i found all of the ASW's mostly useless.
Kelly's was fun, haven't been to an asw event there since enrolling tho.

And if you go you can pretend it's how you met people on other sections that you really met through TLS.
Buckey, Gray, you guys going to the happy hour? It might be a good occasion to scare away some admits and spend GULC money

Hilarious dude. Take him for PR, it was great. DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT take him for a black letter doctrinal. You've been warned.
If there is one thing GULC does well, it is give away free beer. Take advantage of it, because nothing else is ever cheap.

Depends on how you determine "value". Still get decent wide-eyed shock from non-law folks who hear where I'm attending.

Kind of on this note, always eat before any sort of GULC administration-sponsored event*, even if they tell you they will feed you. It will always be the same shitty finger food.
*this advice does not apply to any student or outside organization. They often provide excellent food.

I love hummus, but not when it's literally the only thing to eat.

Look you can have a bloated overpaid faculty or you can have nice fingerfoods but you can't have both

I can think of at least 3 professors I'd trade for a nice plate of mini-quiches.

Hi guys, I'm looking for some advice on double-depositing to help with negotiations at Georgetown. I don't have much leverage other than a near full scholly at Fordham - I'm wondering if depositing there will help at all. Any advice?
