So yesterday I went to visit with a friend, J, who's also a 1L at a school which shall not be named. We exchanged notes on how law school life was, differences in teaching, classmates, workload, etc. It's really nice to be able to talk about this crazy experience with someone from a different school.

The kicker though is that her school has a mandatory attrition curve. Meaning, a fixed percentage of students will be dropped by the school based on their 1L grades. How crazy is that? So she always studying because of the threat of being dismissed by the school.

Now I realize how "nice" I've got it. My pressure is trying to be in the top % of my class, not worrying about flunking out (they don't fail people out at Moritz). So in appreciation, as we get back to school tomorrow, I'll be spending more time in the library and less time t.v. watching.
