HOW MY 2ND YEAR OF LAW SCHOOL WENT | FINAL EXAM GRADES, TEXTBOOKS, & MORE | NWCU ONLINE LAW SCHOOL 

I am so sorry that my grades were the last thing I shared, I meant to share them early on in the video since I know it is what most of you are waiting to see, but I still had another 30 minutes of footage that I completely cut since this video was so long already, so let me know if you want a part 2 with the rest of the footage!

Thanks for sharing your experience! You helped me make my decision to apply here and it’s been 2 months since I started. I’m so grateful for your tips, I still feel overwhelmed with the adjustment but these videos are super helpful to navigate 1L. Also, I work in the legal field and I can tell you, many lawyers don’t care about the grades unless you are in big law. My motto is “C’s get degrees.” We can always aim for B’s or A’s but I think passing the CA bar is more important since it’s considered the hardest exam in the country. Also, you are basically teaching everything yourself at NWCU! Getting passing grades each year is admirable.

Im a current Harvard student who cross enrolls in law courses and honestly you’re not missing much. Pretty much all they do is tell you to read cases, brief them and read about them. Lecture wise they teach you nothing. The socratic method while it sounds cool is quite stupid if you think about it. It’s basically pay $100000 to do exactly what people do who are “reading the law.” It really does seem self taught in many regards. Im thinking of doing nwc school of law for this reason btw.

Waiting for my 1L final grades from NWCU. So grateful for all you share to help those of us behind you. ❤

Grandma is very, very proud of you and all of your accomplishments!❤. I know you can get all B’s. You work hard and have great study habits. And……”head down and paddle hard”….he’s watching over you😘

Thanks for keeping it real. I am considering applying to NWCU in the fall of 2024. Your videos definitely give a great idea of what to expect.

I too am enrolled in NWCU online and I agree with all you have said and have expereinced much of the same. I am currently a 3L. Thanks for sharing! 😊

You look so cute! I can tell you look even happier the closer you get close to finishing.❤

Way to go Macy!!! Awesome!!!

Hi Macy! Yes I agree at the end of the day whether your in traditional law school or online you still take the same bar exam. great job!

Good job! I’m about to take my 1L final exam in April 🤞🏼

You did very well. Congrats. Keep it up!

Great job!!

You Rock!❤

Examity is not an option anymore. The school now uses Respondus, which is great because you can take your exam anytime between the 11th month and last month without having to schedule it in advance or change appointments if needed. I think I signed up during the transition with Examity and was given the option to switch to Respondus, which I did. Anyway, just wanted to share in case you wanted to update your video if you want. :) Thanks for sharing your experiences and great job with 2L!

You mentioned having to show the exam proctor your sheets of paper and no spell check option. Are the final exams in typed format or handwritten? What about the midterms? I’m just curious in what format you turn in the assignments and associated exams. Thank you.

At this law school do you ever get a summer or winter break or is the program 52 weeks a year for 4 years straight?

I think I remember you mentioning about you graduating with your undergrad right around the time that I think you enrolled at Northwestern so my question is were you working on your undergrad the same time you enrolled for law school or did you completely finish your undergrad first before enrolling?

would you say you're a good test taker? I realize the grades at NWCU are based on your midterm and final so that's something I'm kind of nervous about.

Whether at Harvard [or] at NWCU, everyone should achieve uniform mediocrity and occasional excellence in order to pass the bar examination. Wise students are not striving for an Am Jur award. This is a pass/fail test. Everybody who passes gets the same thing: a license to practice law. Good luck!

I don’t know if you’ll see this, but I’m a mom of 3 looking in to law school and have to do online because of my location. I know CA has different laws. Can I take the bar in North Dakota if I were to look in to your online school or is it only accredited for the CA bar?Also, do you have to go on campus for anything at all during the year? I would be so appreciative of any information you have. Thanks so much ❤

I'm applying to your school. I'm transferring from another law school. You should sell you 1L outline.

Did you transfer into Trinity Law?

How are your stress levels with the course load?

Who grades 2L midterms and finals?

Are you still in school ?

Are final exams open book?

Nice black sweatshirt 😂😂😂😂😂

You are quite the catch! You are so delightful and pleasant. Your presentations are spot on! Phenomenally good performance and appearance, so the question is how, since you look healthy and well, do you maintain taking care of yourself during a period of high study and advancement? I understand you are quite busy, planning events, studying a big case, editing RU-vid, and then being on the move. However, I would love to hear from you about how you manage to take care of yourself during such a high-pressure period. As the joke goes: A man calls a lawyer's office. The phone is answered, "Schwartz, Schwartz, Schwartz and Schwartz." The man says, "Let me talk to Mr. Schwartz." "I'm sorry, he's on vacation." "Then let me talk to Mr. Schwartz." "He's on a big case, not available for a week." "Then let me talk to Mr. Schwartz." "He's playing golf today." "Okay, then, let me talk to Mr. Schwartz." "Speaking!"

Old Law School saying, " 1L they scare you to death, 2L they work you to death, & 3L they bore you to death. True fact, however, it could be hearsay evidence, unless an exception arises. LOL
