I ve treated law school like a job. I relied heavily upon my communication skills in the military and was used to speaking in public and having people challenge the results of field tests I conducted. I m used to having to confidently defend my position against people trying to change or challenge my point of view. The Air Force was good proving ground for me. While law school is not as pressure packed as flying fighters, I found it equally as difficult but in a different way.
Law school is a more consistent kind of pressure.
There s a constant grind. Students need to be prepared for that.
