Columbia Law Students
First-year grades are important -- very important. Your 1L grades at Columbia University School of Law will not only determine your eligibility for law review and other honors, but will dictate what job opportunities are available when you graduate. This is because the most selective legal employers recruit law students at the beginning of their second year, and they often will only interview law students who finished at the top of their 1L class. Given the staggering cost of a legal education, and a highly competitive legal hiring market, adopting a trial-and-error approach as a 1L is a flawed strategy. Learn why preparing for the challenges you will face during your first year of law school can help protect the substantial investment you are about to make in your legal education.

I felt more prepared because I knew what to expect. I think the class made me feel more confident in my ability to meet the challenges of law school. I would definitely recommend the class to any incoming law student!
Law Preview was a great experience that certainly helped me excel in my first semester. My law school does not rank students but I am thrilled (and surprised!) to report I got an A in two out of my three classes - an honor that only goes to the top 5-10% of the class. Law Preview helped me achieve such success by introducing me to the core, fundamental doctrines and important cases that frequently appeared on my final exams.
I cannot overstate what a tremendous difference Law Preview made in shaping my first year at Columbia Law School! Attending the NY session really helped to calm my pre-law-school nerves! The professors were truly wonderful, explaining the concepts and the processes of law school in such a way that there were absolutely no surprises my first year. I could anticipate and was prepared for everything they threw my way! And I just can't say enough good things about how attentive Law Preview's founders are to the needs of their students--they really care how well you enjoy Law Preview and how well you do in law school.The best of it is... I just made the Columbia Law Review! Thanks Law Preview!
