She's going too slow

thanks for the anxiety attack

If law school doesn't pan out, she can always become an air traffic controller in Chicago.

This is genius. For those of you who don’t get it or find it boring, she’s poking fun at how detail-oriented and meticulous law school work is by making a video in the style of said work.

your talking a little too slow, mind speeding up a bit?

thumbs up to everybody who listened to this lovely lady and precisely scrolled comment section at the same time

If this video proves one thing - outline, outline, outline (don't wait until the end of the semester - do it for every class each weekend, it will make your life easier during exams once you get through the minimum requirements. By then, you'll have the "system" mastered and you can breathe).

And this is why I'm an engineer.

RAP GOD

I'm from Australia and I'm a Law student. The best advice I can give to anyone interested and motivated to study law is to do it. Don't decide not to do it our of fear or intimidation.

The reason she is speaking so fast is because she's showing how people (mostly professors) speak in law school. The books are how much stuff you'll eventually have to read from cover to cover and carry to and from class every day and the writing... well you have to write fast while listening to your professor speak at lightning speed.

I'm so fucked.

I feel like everyone telling her to slow down in this video is kind of missing the point...

Oh crap....I understood everything with such clarity.

I was laughing OUT LOUD when you started showing us the books and weighing them

you missed some very important info...most exams from the past are on file in the library so it would behoove any student to get those and learn them since the only thing changing for the current exam will be the fact situation. also, the difference between an A and a C is the ability to write quicker.

I didnt know we can watch 2x vid on mobile too

"by definition you're fucked"-The goddess of wisdom and law school

Great video! As a graduating 3L in SF, I have to say this person is incredibly brilliant! Very smart, very accurate! Great job!!

Very funny. Its been 15 years since I graduated from law school. So much of this I had pushed into my subconscious never to see or hear again. I suppose it is some type of PTSD coping mechanism. Good luck to all current and future law students!

Drinking game: everytime she says the word ‘Starbucks’, take a shot! 🤣

This was awesome. If you are thinking of law school... welcome. Disclaimer: Panic is optional. Remember study and brief a bit, use online sources - but still read so you don't sound like you're stupid in case the internet got it wrong. More importantly do the freaking practicals. All libraries have them, check one out. Most of the exam is not a case you'll need to brief, it's crazy practicals that you must find the answers within... if any exist, hence the question: what is the issue and what is the likely remedy? The hardest part of law school is getting in. If you can make it in then you can make it through. You're awesome - now continue with your search of law school videos on KZfaq.

Finally, someone on KZfaq who talks and informs at the speed I want them to. Straight to the point but also rants on unrelated topics to keep people focused, anytime she said starbucks I found that I missed something but it drew me back in and forced me to focus

Your B.A. in Linguistics won't not be competitive at Starbucks!!! LOL.

Hi, I work with talent acquisition at Starbucks. We were very impressed with your linguistic skills and would like to speak to you about exciting opportunities in brand localisation at some of our new shops opening up on First Peoples' reservations.

1. Go to settings (little gear button in bottom right) 2. Select speed 3. Select .75 4. Thank me later

I really enjoyed this video. I found it funny, entertaining, yet very realistic. Thank you

It's better on 2X speed.

I loved it!! Cracked me up a few times and as far as I'm concerned, law and law studies are badly in need of therapeutic doses of humor! Thanks.

Hello! I am also a Linguistics student considering Law School! Because you made this video eight years ago, I'm wondering whether you find law fulfilling, stressful, etc. I got accepted to a cash cow MA program and think that law school might actually be less demeaning than graduate school for linguistics. Let me know what you think if you're still out there!

This was great, couldn't stop laughing. Wish more people were this interesting.

This is ridiculously on point. Well done!

I have finally found the cure to my insomnia which as plagued me for most of my life. All I have to do is hear her speak..

Was this a commercial for Starbucks?

This is great very funny your speech patterns kept me entertained

Absolutely brilliant! Absolutely flawless!

I'm only here bc I just started watching suits

not sure if this video stressed me out or if i just fell in love with law?

I love this video. It's fun to watch and then trying to understand it all is the best part XD You just got yourself a like and a subscriber :D

33 seconds in and my head is spinning

So I think the most important part of this video is that if you fail law school, Starbucks is a great place to get a job lol

Anyone complaint she is going to fast, or intimidated by her “trying to sound to smart” don’t go to law school...

Absolutely loved this.

I found the video not only informative but really funny. Good job.

Hello all, Go to settings icon in video player, then change "Speed" setting, to 0.75, or maybe smaller number.

I'm that guy -Rando

Way to analyze! You are SPOT on - you're going to make a great attorney!

This is one of the best videos I've seen on KZfaq in a long time

Great. Wonderful. Hysterical. Admirabilis scolas.

Best advertisement for Starbucks ever.

For the first time in my life, I didn't have to manually speed up the video. Thank you! I think that means law school is for me!

I loved the speed of the elocuence. And great plain encouragement

She is correct, if you are in your 20' s with no experience. However if you are in the 1st category she mentioned. That being someone who has 1-10 year (likely more) years experience. A lot of those people of those people go back to school to become senior management in what they are doing not because they don't like it. Also, the more experience you have in life the easier it becomes to "spot problems" and those "improbable situations" might actually have been experienced. In summer, law school is a lot less stressful the more life experience you have.

Terrible communication. Ha, funny.

This video was brilliant!

I never comment on videos, but this was awesome. By far one of the best videos I've watched lol

if this is Law School in USA then NO THANK YOU! 0.0 I'm a Law student in the UK and comparing to this madness... we have it easy! We get lecture handouts and powerpoint slides handed to us by the lecturers in advance, plus they put them up on the Uni website for us, plus they give us extra material if relevant, plus we don't have to carry all those books around as they're either in the library or most information is available online. This video made me see how privileged UK students are!

Youre talking so fast that its just annoying.

This is brilliant.

Great video! Much appreciated - thank you! I read some of the posts in the comments' section and couldn't believe the amount of people who were complaining about your video...

Notice how she develops an outline. Typical law school habits! LOL. Law school was awesome but it was also stressful. The Bar study period and the Bar itself was the WORST THING EVER. But completely doable.

Although I found her presentation style very pompous and annoying at law school I did learn to take notes incredibly rapidly and absorb huge amounts of information in short time frames. Therefore there is something in what she says. You need to be a very rapid learner and super organised...hard work is mandatory unless you are a genius and or have a photographic memory. Good luck. P.S. a law degree leads to an amazing array of possible careers and is useful every day as most activities have legal ramifications. I am never bothered by the police, negotiate all types of contracts to my advantage and generally have the edge over most people in arguments and discussions. I also have a master's in philosophy and just by the way found law to be much less challenging intellectually.....all that you need is to work extremely hard, have a good memory and decent analytical skills. In philosophy you actually have to be bright and capable of complex analytical and abstract analysis.

Thank you for the encouragement.

So John and Hank Green are not the only speed rappers on KZfaq! Anyhow thank you for the video, I enjoyed it and learned a few things from it.

the sad part is I recognize the books on the left side of the video. 1L

This is quite funny and even a bit meta. Noice. DO NOT BRIEF. It's a waste of time past the first month. You don't even have to make your own outline past the first semester. Find someone else's at the START of the semester and make sure it's comprehensive. You'll study this along with reading for class, the outline basically does the synthesis for you. You can even read ahead. If you want to learn to "think like a lawyer", maybe don't do this in the first semester so you can work it out yourself. Law school is much less intimidating when you put a bit less pressure on yourself.

Why…why does it sound AMAZING

I loved this so much

Did you become an attorney? If so, what law did you end up practicing? Do you enjoy it? Are you still an attorney? If not, what do you do now?

ummmm what she just said ??? :/

This was actually really comforting lol

I slowed it down to .75 so I could comprehend at normal speed and then replayed at regular speed to get a taste of law school lecture. This video is a bit dated at 11 years. There has been many societal changes. Can anyone confirm if this video is (in general) still accurate?

I deeply admire how equivocal and monotonal you are. 

this is so accurate. any anyone complaining has probably never gone to law lectures where professors talk like this 80% of the time

What an awesome video! You go girl!

This just made me more intrigued

This is how educated people should NOT speak

I don't mind the fast talking as some may say but I do care to know where you got your ink pen from. :)

Probably the only law school advice vid that speaks even faster than I do in my advice vids (which you should all check out if you are considering law school!)

Wow you really turned me onto you, beautiful voice, nice handwriting and law school. I hope to meet a woman like this one day.

The presenter of this video must be a rapper

Amy Farrah Fowler? Is that you?

Absolute banter!

I love this video! Absolutely the definition of law school.

What the hell is she saying? Talking so damn fast!!

This video gave me a stroke.

What an excellent take on law school from someone in the middle of her first year!

Thank you for playing!

You guys, this lady is just showing off. This lady knows better than to make a 5 minute video full of legalize that a lay person would not be able to understand. She is talking to a group of fellow individuals fresh out of college, not her fellow colleagues. I apologize. Law students don't talk like this, nor do they act like this. (Especially after the 1L year)Law school is nothing like this either. Yes it is stressful, Yes it is hard, but we do manage to get some free time. If anyone wants to know what REAL law school is like, send me a personal message. I think a more thorough, yet humble opinion of law school is like is better than a sped up, showoffy, legalize one.

We get it, you want to make us feel inferior by talking quickly, enough already

Lmao I love this girl. I appreciate the nuance and energy. Good shit.

I may have had a mini panic attack, but other than that, this was a pretty good insight about law school! (In my opinion)

Who did this video? I would love to pick your brain. I have a BA in linguistics and I am halfway through my MA in linguistics and I am considering law school. I love the outline I can definitely identify with it. Thanks for sharing!

feels like listening to the wife.

I think you just made me decide to go to law school. To be sure: If I work at Starbucks (Hereafter known as SB's) while in law school, will they have to give me a pay bump once I have my degree? Sub question: Will SB's require passing the bar or just transcripts? Sub two: Is contacting SB's customers about their legal issues unethical? Thanks for a whole German cognate bunch.

Reminds me of debate class. Nicely done

You'd make a really good rapper.

So, 'don't', go to law school?

i like this video, please do make more alike and don't change a bit,the way you do it and talk, makes it interesting to watch.

I’ve been wanting to be a lawyer since 7th grade, and this video doesn’t worry me at all.
