2 days into 1L...
... and Im wondering if my 2014 peers and I can feel as if we have officially shed the shackles that come with the 0L title.
bring on the shit storm, dont care. Hoping this brings laughs.

The answer is already no because you had to ask for permission-assert yourself!

I thought orientation just meant free food, finding the bathrooms, and seeing who to hook up with.bport hopeful wrote:..but..but.. they said "welcome to 1L" and that id been oriented....

Re: 2 days into 1L...
To riff off of that in a realistic manner, Socratic method was not nearly as bad as I expected it to be. Maybe due to not having any truly diabolical teachers, but I haven't cried and I haven't seen any other 1Ls cry.

Though I definitely notice it is exactly like HS. Everyone knows everyone's shit. Even after a few days. And there is already a kid we ALL fucking hate.

Re: 2 days into 1L...
Socratic method is virtually nonexistent since there are so many volunteers. At most one person per class gets called on.

Re: 2 days into 1L...
Mostly the same in my classes outside of Crim, where the prof doesn't really care if you raise your hand for the initial case rundown. I just volunteer myself in that class because he's a known hard-ass, Socratic style teacher. Granted, I volunteer on fluff questions each time (today was talking about hippies).Naked Dude wrote:Socratic method is virtually nonexistent since there are so many volunteers.

I haven't been called out in that class, but in Contracts and Civ Pro I've been called on when no one raised their hands. I am,however, a bit surprised at the high amount of volunteers.

Man that's risky. Every time someone volunteers on a fluff question in Crim the professor grills them on and off the rest of the class.joncrooshal wrote:Mostly the same in my classes outside of Crim, where the prof doesn't really care if you raise your hand for the initial case rundown.

Re: 2 days into 1L...
I have one professor who doesn't cold-call, one who calls on a few people/class and takes a lot of volunteers, and one who cold calls A LOT. Surprisingly (to me, anyway), the tough Socratic is my favorite class. Funny how that works out.Naked Dude wrote:Socratic method is virtually nonexistent since there are so many volunteers.

Also, I have a surprising amount of free time. (lulz 1L is so easy).

Hah, same here. The main socratic class for me is Crim and is, by far, my favorite class.beachbum wrote:I have one professor who doesn't cold-call, one who calls on a few people/class and takes a lot of volunteers, and one who cold calls A LOT.

Re: 2 days into 1L...
One prof grills you more and more if you keep getting his question right, makes a quick snide comment if you get it wrong and moves on
Another won't let you off the hot seat until you say something at least somewhat intelligent, record is at about 7 minutes right now of straight grilling, it was awesome
Two that barely cold call at all
I think by far the most overhyped thing about Law School so far is the big bad scary socratic method.

Re: 2 days into 1L...
Personally I don't care what you call yourself. As far as I'm concerned if you're in law school you're a law student, BUT:
It has been said that you are not a law student until you walk out of your civ pro exam.
