Second semester performance
I am feeling drained as a 1L in my second semester. I don't feel like I rocked some of my finals - but I don't know if this is because I now have a more accurate perception of my performance (after fall sem) or because I am legitimately performing subpar. Do people feel this? Am I really going to tank my grades?

Doesn't matter what you feel, just matters what you do with the results you don't have yet.

You got an A-, a B+, and two Bs.perfunctory wrote:I am feeling drained as a 1L in my second semester.

Re: Second semester performance
I thought one of the Bs was a B-, but I may have misread it. I haven't replaced my tea leaves in a while.rpupkin wrote:You got an A-, a B+, and two Bs.perfunctory wrote:I am feeling drained as a 1L in my second semester.

Re: Second semester performance
Yeah, it was a B- on the curve, but prof gave a half-grade bump for participation.QuentonCassidy wrote:I thought one of the Bs was a B-, but I may have misread it.

Re: Second semester performance
I am right there with you. I had this seemingly limitless pool of energy fall semester, and was obsessed with the concept of even being in law school. Ended up extremely pleased with all my grades. This semester, burn out, dislike for my classes, and Property happened.perfunctory wrote:I am feeling drained as a 1L in my second semester.

Re: Second semester performance
Yeap. I'm constantly going over what I wrote on my exams, sometimes thinking I utterly failed, sometimes thinking I got straight A-s. lol.Tortious Conduct wrote:I am right there with you.

Re: Second semester performance
I know what you mean. I just can't gauge my performance this time around. I probably won't check my grades until July or something...perfunctory wrote:Yeap.
