The final push

This might be my last post before exams, which for my classmates and me are just 10 days away. Just one week of classes remains — three hours each of Criminal Law and Civil Procedure, and four hours of Torts. (We've gotten so far behind in Torts that Prof. Meese is attempting to schedule a last-minute make-up session.) Of course, that's strictly the class schedule and doesn't factor in: 1.) two more teaching assistant review sessions, which last an hour and tend to be productive; 2.) an optional 1-hour exam preview with 2Ls and 3Ls from my Legal Skills firm, Lederer & Posey; 3.) two optional hour-long Civ Pro review sessions with Prof. Green; and 4.) an hour-long Crim review session after class with Prof. Marcus.

Aside from those, there are study group sessions and a ridiculous amount of reading, outlining, reviewing, flow chart drawing, copying, printing, labeling, and practice exam-taking in the 10 days ahead.

In the end, however, we'll all gather at the scheduled times for our first three exams. We will take them, and we will not have any idea how well we did for about 45 days — well after we have started our spring semester.

Crunch time is here. Om.
