Right!!! My eyes feel blessed to see this👏

me too

It feels like everyone is taken into account for consideration no matter their color and also that all people share the same dreams. That's the way to go!

You ain't black.

@@SuperBigshot99 you too 😂

Like I am disgusted

😂

I get disgusted by that noise

Congrats!! If you come to the admitted students weekend say hi! -Angel

Angel & Sam LLP Thanks so much! I definitely will. I’ll be attending the School of General Studies for English.

O wow, that's awesome. Say hey one of these days! - Sam

Thanks sis! It’s called The Shaking Crab. It’s on 112th and Broadway.

Lol honestly, the only part of my law school experience that was a breeze was first semester 3L and that’s because I was abroad. Law school gets progressively better, but I def don’t think this semester will be easy. And I get to bed a lot earlier on the days when I don’t have classes.

Thanks for the tip.

Thank You!

Follow us on instagram and send a DM. I'll send you a short clip.

Congrats 🍾

Lol Good luck with your last semester! Let's finish strong, sis. - Sam

I am also here at Mailman, school of public health. Hey y'all! We both graduate this year, congrats to us!

Hey and Congrats!!

Good luck!

Thank you! If you come, be sure to say hey. I’ll be there. - Sam

Sorry, I may have been unclear. I meant that it wasn’t an actual class. We all attend CLS. It was a CLS BLSA meeting.

When I was an undergrad, I thought it was difficult balancing my classes, but law school is a whole different ball park. I spend a lot less time reading/briefing now because I do not brief every case, but when I was a 1L I would work well into the evenings every day. - Sam

😂😂😂 I guess I’m saltier than I realized that they don’t want to sit with me lmao. I haven’t had classes with my front of the room friends in a while.

And to the reading before bed lol, it usually depends on whether I plan on waking up super early to do work before leaving the house

Stood there page for page lol. 2 pages at a time. It doesn’t take as long as it sounds, but it does take a while.

The best advice I can give is to practice as much as you can and stay positive. Good luck! -Angel

It is more difficult to stay motivated now that I am in my last semester than it was when I was a 1L or 2L. However, choosing classes that I enjoy and genuinely want to know more about, doing work that I was told will be beneficial to my practice area, and the fact that I pay so much for tuition/ want to get the most for my money keeps me focused. - Sam

Same! I only have classes M-W so I try to go as much as possible on my off days, and I do heated bikram on Saturday mornings.

Yes, I have committed to the investment funds group at my firm. Although I dabbled with the idea of going JD/MBA when I was in undergrad and in my first year of law school, I ultimately decided not to do it. This semester, I have cross-registered into a business school class, and I realized that I have some regrets. I do not have any tips on the process or the likes, but if it is something you actually want to do, go for it. I do not know anyone who regrets doing it, and if you decide to work in the private sector, a number of employers will provide a MBA bonus which surpasses any additional costs. - Sam

If I leave on time, I take a route where I do not have to go through a toll lol. If I do have to go through, I take the west side highway so its $2.60 with an easy pass. Parking on some days is a lot worse than others, but if I leave early enough, I'm usually good. It is a struggle!! but I've gotten use to it. Still wouldn't recommend it to anyone lol.

Does Columbia provide paid parkng ? My goodness where exactly do you park ? 🚘🚙

I lived in Yonkers during this time, so that was the fastest way to get to the upperwest side.

There are about four or five scanners in our library. If the professor requests it, a book or two remains on reserve. The machine scans two pages at a time in pdf form. If you can split up the work with another student or two, it'll take approximately an hour each max.

Thank You! @@Sistersinlaw

its called OneNote its a program by microsoft

I stopped caring as much about cold calls after my 1L year. You realize after a semester or so that it doesn’t affect your performance on exams and no one remembers them except you lol. Even still, I have that voice in the back of my head telling me that I’m going to sound like I don’t know what I’m talking about so I read footnotes a lot more carefully and anticipate any questions I may be asked. -Sam

Political science

More understanding concepts and applying rules/ standards by arguing both sides -Sam

Not dumb at all, there is a scanner in our library that scans two pages at a time. It came out of the printing amount that is allocated to us each semester; the cost is already covered in our tuition and fees.

@@Sistersinlaw Thank you! You just gave me a new idea!

I think it cost about $5 dollars to bind it, and printing costs are already covered in our fees

I live about a 15-20 min drive out. However, this is my first semester off campus. I would suggest living as close as possible-especially if you’re not from NY. It’s a bit more expensive, but if affordable, the convenience is worth the sacrifice.

It was tough!! Lol I was surprised that I only received one parking ticket.
