how to survive 1L in als
just received the acknowledge receipt email of my confirmation fee and i would really appreciate any tips that i could get as to how i could survive my first year in ALS 🥹
for context, i took a gap year (months?) before entering ls so i could mentally prepare myself. i graduated last year with latin honors at dlsu but i know i’m going back to square one, despite having a common “pre-law” program (polisci). i’m not going to pressure myself to do as great as i did in undergrad but rather, i just wish to enjoy all the knowledge i could possibly learn and survive as much as i can.
i’m really anxious about the profs and recits as an introverted person but i enjoy putting myself in situations where i could suffer in exchange of growth (how ironic). i also heard from a friend that intro to law was hard so.. one of my friends also decided to transfer out of ALS and that makes me even more anxious.
i’m also going to be out of the country the whole month in june so i don’t know if i could study in preparation for 1L or if i should just rawdog it and enjoy my time with family and friends before school starts.
either way, i’d really appreciate words of advice or if there are any other existing threads in reddit, kindly just link them below. thank you!
