This is a really shitty thing for someone to do. It’s insane to believe that this woman who has literally built and supported business across multiple industry is somehow less capable of becoming a lawyer than literally anyone else who ISN’T a lawyer… not to say that anyone who is a practicing attorney is has the ability to gauge the capability of someone they don’t know, personally. Anyone who isn’t supporting this, is a piece of shit.
You misunderstood the point of this post, let me explain:
As someone who spent money and grueling time to go through law school, take the bar, and become a lawyer, I have a knee-jerk, eye-roll reaction to any statement that anyone *will* be a lawyer when they haven’t yet done any of what it takes. Kim has to first pass California’s “baby bar” on first year courses before she is even eligible to take the actual bar, which basically no one who does the apprenticeship route ever passes.
Her dad was a famous lawyer and she has all the resources she wants at her fingertips, and good for her that she wants to take on this challenge. But telling the world that a college drop-out doing an apprenticeship is to definitely be a lawyer three years from now is misleading, and annoying for me to see, that’s all. This profession is not a right, nor a shiny thing you can just buy. It’s a privilege that you have to earn with time, money, and a lot of hard work, and even then requires luck to get.
This has aged well
It is now 18 days from 2022 and Kim has finally passed the baby bar, which means she has two more years and the bar exam left

Sorry not sorry I actually think it’s fucking psychopathic that you find out whether you passed the bar from a publicly published list online. Not only is law school, studying for it, and taking the exam itself a grueling, miserable, belittling experience but now whether you pass or not is available for anyone to find out at the same time you do? It’s like an extra kick in the teeth.
Yeaaaaaa. It depends on the state though.
I think it might have started to prevent people from lying about having passed, but yeah, it’s shit

I’m a rising 3L whose summer job doesn’t hire back after graduation. OCI similarly seems to be a bust. I’ve been scouring all possible job boards to find something for after graduation, but nothing’s panned out so far. Is it time to panic about not having a post-grad job, or do I still have time?
Tough love time.
I can’t think of a single job that has an incentive to offer you a position now to start in fall 2022. That’s not a dig on you, but that employers are just like you and me and simply don’t know what their needs are going to look like more than a year from now. They have no reason to promise a current student, who has yet to graduate or even start studying for the bar, a job so far off, with a ton of contingencies (like- assuming you graduate and pass the bar and we still need to hire a first year then). If they have a current need, you can’t start anyway because you have school. Unless it’s a fellowship or something like that actively advertised to current students, you may want to consider focusing on your job search after you actually pass the bar, and looking into trying to get some substantive experience to pad your resume like clinics at school or externships. Good luck!
I know you guys just know me as a pic of RBG flipping you off and a rule of federal civil procedure but it’s very important that you know this about me: I’m cute as hell

I don't know what "1L of a ride" is but I just finished my last final of 1L and at this point I'm too afraid to ask
it’s a pun because it sounds like “one hell of a ride”
this is why I’m here after all these years
