Hofstra Law Students
First-year grades are important -- very important. Your 1L grades at Hofstra 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.

Nothing can truly prepare you for your 1st semester of Law School, but Law Preview allowed me to get a jump-start on my classmates at the beginning of my 1st semester. While everyone else was still trying to figure out what was going on, I was able to dive right into my courses. Because of Law Preview, I had experience reading and briefing cases, in addition to substantive notes for each of my courses, which I referred to many times over the semester. The briefing techniques and strategies I learned at Law Preview helped me stay organized, and I used Law Preview's proposed schedule and timeline to ensure that I did not fall behind. If I had not attended Law Preview, I may not have received the only A+ in my Contracts class. I would recommend Law Preview to all incoming law students.
Law Preview was very helpful because it gave me a plan about how to tackle the challenges I faced. The most important aspect that Law Preview gave me is the mindset that I could do this - that I could be successful in law school. It was nice to know that I had at least one person was cheering me on to do well.
