I graduate in two weeks!

I’m so happy! :cool: Also, terrified. I’m giving serious consideration to bombing my final exam on purpose so I can stay in school. I think I’m institutionalized. :eek:

Congrats! It is terrifying, but you’ll do just fine.

Don’t worry. High school isn’t as different as you think!

'bout time? or on schedule?

either way, just do it, don’t blow it on purpose.

Congrats man :).

So what area of law are you leaning towards? Or have you now decided you never want to deal with the law ever again and just want to get a nice low-stress job in a tasty-freeze?

You say that, but the lunch table cliques are totally different. :mad:

I’ve come to understand that you wind up practicing whatever area(s) of law the first person to hire you does. I work full time at a firm that does primarily workers’ compensation defense now and I expect to remain here (at least for a while) once I’m admitted to the bar. Plus I have seven years of experience in the field, whereas I’d be starting at bottom if I branched out.

The tasty-freeze idea is super tempting though.

On time in the sense that I’m finishing a four-year program in four years. Bit late in the sense that I’m now 31 and would have graduated at 23 if I went when I first planned to. :smack:

Good for you. :slight_smile:

Of course you’ll have to shorten your UserID to “Really All That Bright” once you are credentialated.

Congrats! I’m envious. I remember we started together, but I still have fall semester to go. 4.5 years. bleh

Congratulations! :slight_smile:

That sounds great for all the rest of us. A lawyer who will know that he/she isn’t all that bright.

I kid… I kid.

No seriously, sounds scary as all crap, but at least you have real world experience. I was lucky that way as well. I had two serious offers, one of which was from my alma mater. I already knew the folks I was going to work with, because… well that was how I put myself through school, writing software.

Good luck!

Hand out your resume’ in person with a good appearance … congratulations!

Now get a job …

Yay! Congratulations! I’ve got about a year to go myself.

I’m interested in what will be your go-to excuse for doing horrible in fantasy football. Now that you are no longer in school.

J/k
Congrats.

Super-duper, and congratulations! I am sure you will do fine. Your heart is in the right place.

Congrats! You know, you could always stay in school a few years more, get your PhD and then never have to leave the hallowed halls of academia… :slight_smile:

The work world isn’t all that bad, and it soounds like you have a pretty good in already. Best of Luck!

Congrats! It’s an accomplishment to get through the law school grind. Good on you!

Thanks, guys!

I was thinking I might go with just Really?.

I was just looking at our PMs. Senioritis will definitely settle in during your next semester. Don’t fight it. :cool:

I still have to take the bar exam before worry about that stuff (plus I will be working for my current employer anyway.)

No time to read preview mags because of bar prep, of course. :smiley:

Stay off highway five in California :eek:

Best username thread combo. Congrats man; real life its so bad. :slight_smile:

Plan on doing any writing for Popehat?
