I want to comment on the “experience” posts but I seem to be at a loss for words. And that really never happens. lol.

Law school at my school was boot-camp style and may have been soul-crushing (although I think it was more “soul-sucking” as in they just took it from us). It was so long ago and the shared misery is what I remember. Friendships forged under fire.

I do recall coming in with an attitude of being top of the class, and coming out with the attitude of “I survived with some pride left”. And I do remember conversations with classmates after some years where they expressed that their psyches (egos?) suffered mightily.

Maybe it’s having realistic expectations? Both of the work required and your place in the line?
