Welcome to the Law School Toolbox Podcast! Today, we’re talking about a subject no one likes to think about: midterms. Law school midterms are becoming more and more common, especially for 1Ls. If you’re a 1L, this will be the first time you stare down the barrel of a law school exam – and get a grade, which can be intimidating! Tune in while Lee and Alison discuss what you need to know about law school midterms.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The value of midterm exams for students
- How seriously should you take midterms?
- Types of midterm exams you might see
- How to prepare, and resources you can turn to for help
- The significance of a midterm grade, whether you did really well, or not so well
