Wednesday, January 15th in Room 124 SBA will be sponsoring our annual "What to Make of My Grades Panel?" The discussion will be with Dean Ende, Professor Heymann, Professor Kades, Professor Kern-Scheerer, Professor Ibrahim and Vice Dean Roberts. 

The purpose of the panel is to chat about grades. The good, the bad, and the different approaches to help you all feel prepared for your second semester. I went to the panel last year after not doing as well as I had hoped my first semester and found the panel extremely moving.

Just to give you an idea last year students asked how their first semester GPA will impact their 1L job search? I did not do so well in the area I want to practice, should I still continue thinking about practicing in that area? Why is legal writing graded on a curve? What are insightful tips to improve my second semester?
