Screaming Bean
Wednesday, July 02, 2003

I had my meeting yesterday. I believe it was successful in that the Dean thinks I'm doing everything I can to be successful, and since I didn't fail out that's a good thing. We came to the conclusion that I really can't write all that well, which really does not come as a bolt out of the blue to me. Writing has always been my nemesis. At this point you might well be asking yourself, "If you knew you can't write, why did you go to law school?" I can attempt to answer this. One, I enjoy a challenge. Two, I have better than average research skills, and hoped that I could supplement my poor writing with outstanding research. Three, can't really see myself doing anything else.

So, now we know that I can't write, we need to improve the situtation. Like everything else I do, I throw myself into reading books in hopes of improving the situation. This, while seemingly worthwhile, seems to defeat the idea of writing to improve one's writing. So, I left the office with practice problems to write and a slight admonition that I should be doing better than I am. I don't feel that the admonition is out of place, however, I still find it hard to believe that the LSAT is that great a predictor of law school performance. Perhaps I just take standardized exams well. Yeah, that's it.
