Oh boo hoo. Like anything the TLS hivemind produces matters. Georgetown will continue to piss off people on this forum. Considering how many people here are insecure overachievers, that's the closest thing to prestige I can think of.
How is the 0L without law finals currently around them the least well-adjusted person in this topic??

Those USNWR peer review scores will plummet once the TRUMP name makes its way in. Hey big donor money perhaps? Maybe brings in some new connects

I know GULC doesn't have a formalized mentor system, but can I sign up for Hordika? (i.e., can Hordika be MY mentor?) I think I can learn a lot from it.

Maybe be Hordika should be a mentor to the entire 3L class next year

"lying out of his asshole" is one of the funniest turns of phrase I've encountered on TLS. It's up there with "kill me in real life."

Studied my ass off for Torts. Answered every question in more detail and with more analysis than I did any other exam. Worst 1L grade

Did not pay attention in Property. Like, at all ever. Felt I did not know anything and had half of one question I took vague stabs at just to get something on paper. Got an A.

This shit has a high degree of subjectivity that for all intents and purposes borders on random ass.
Came here for the drama but + fucking one. There's been almost no correlation in how hard I've studied/how well I thought I did and the grade I actually got.

It will be subject by subject. They will release all con law grades after all con law grades are reviewed, etc. As a result, expect to get the single section electives first. I had mine before my last final even. This is at least how it was my 1L year.

Last year we got everything except property all at once. We woke up saturday morning to a bunch of grades IIRC? Then there was some delay with property and we didn't get it for like another week and half.
Ha. Just you wait until it's time to get your grades this year. Basically, registrar only cares about 1) releasing 1L grades altogether, and 2) releasing 3L Spring grades before graduation. Anyone else, the deadlines are basically advisory as far as they're concerned.

This grade release nonsense has to be the point where the entire registrar's office is axed, right?

I'm excited for five emails to come from five different people which all have contradictory information. Three of the emails will be subsequently withdrawn, one of which actually had the correct information.

Dear Students,

I am writing to notify you of an unexpected and unprecedented issue concerning Spring 2017 grades. Due to an error by the University Registrar’s Office at main campus, grades that were not final have been posted to law students’ transcripts. Unfortunately this means the Spring grades posted to your transcript this morning may not represent your final grades. We are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

Normally, the law center system allows faculty to enter grades as placeholders even before they have finished grading. As a result of today’s mistake, grades at various stages of completeness were posted to transcripts in error. This premature release means that we must now go back and examine the status of all released grades. While some grades may be accurate, others were provisional or had not been reviewed by the Registrar or Associate Dean. It is possible that some grades that were posted to transcripts will change either up or down. Given the number of courses and students involved, this is a tremendous undertaking, which we will begin immediately.

We will continue to update you on the situation and hope to have a timetable for completing the process within the next day or so.

We are deeply disappointed by the University Registrar’s error, and we are employing all possible resources to correct its effects swiftly.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
