University of Florida Law Students
First-year grades are important -- very important. Your 1L grades at University of Florida 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.

When I entered my first year of law school at The University of Florida School of Law, I was very happy with that opportunity. Although I was an 'average' student going in, I ended up doing very well -- finishing in the top 2% of my 1L class. The success I enjoyed as a 1L at Florida allowed me to transfer to Harvard Law School, and that's something that was certainly not an option I had prior to starting school. I definitely think that Law Preview was one of the reasons I did so well my first year. Law Preview gave me a process to follow and an understanding about how to study and absorb the material I'd be learning. In addition, the law professors who teach with Law Preview provided me with an overview of each of my 1L classes, so I had a good understanding about the material I'd cover throughout the year. Finally, learning how to take a law school exam and walk through Law Preview's exam-taking strategies with a law professor from a top law school was a great opportunity and something that I truly appreciated; I was able to use these strategies many times throughout the first year of law school. I would recommend the Law Preview program to anyone -- whether you are planning to go to a small regional school or a large national one. No matter what law school you attend, how well you do during your first year is going to dictate the job opportunities you'll have in the end, which is why I think this program is really for anybody.
Law Preview provided the foundation for my law school studies and laid out a detailed program for me to follow to ensure that I was on top of everything. Additionally, I was able to focus on mastering the material in class rather than scrambling to learn it for the first time. It definitely worked: top 5% of my class and A's in 3 of 4 classes.
