Unlike undergraduate programs, law school is graded on a curve. That means every student is competing against every other student for their class rank. Generally, the students who score a rank at the bottom of the class are at risk of failing out of the program.
Time limit for completing graduate requirements A student may not complete the course of study for the J.D. degree in fewer than 24 months and must complete all requirements for the J.D. degree no later than 84 months after the student commences study.
Exams may be open-book or closed-book Most students are happy to hear that an exam is open-note or open-book. While this does provide a sense of comfort, do not rely on your outline or notes too much. Students often think that if an exam is open-note they do not have to memorize the law.
Law school is an academic challenge; most students agree the first year (“1L” year) is the most difficult. In part, this is because law school is taught using methods entirely different than the lecture method used in most college classrooms.
