it's not over yet, i have to present my direct and cross exams and my closing statement, i have my direct and cross already turned in and have my closing left to do... it's due on monday... it's not really like a trial setting, we just have to present each part as if it were... and then our prof. critiques what we have... i'm not as frustrated any more, and i think i'll do much better on closing than i did on the opening...

Good! I'm glad things are looking up. And think, only a few more weeks and the semester will be over!!

Me too! I have next semester which is mostly electives (12-15 credit hours, my lightest load yet!) and then field placement which means I work 36 hours per work and have a 3 hour seminar course to talk about issues in the field. I get 16 credits for this. No pay unfortunately. lol

After that, it's off to grad school. I just found out a few days ago that I can go for free! I was ecstatic!

I'm glad to have someone to celebrate the upcoming academic milestones with. Now you can't go off to law school and get too busy for us, got it! hehe

Through a GA program. It pays all of tuition plus about $670/month...that's what I've been told anyway. I have to look into more thoroughly, but I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it's true! Also, I'm going into an advanced standing program, so I'll be done in one year! It's tough, but for me it's worth it to graduate a year early.

You should look into your grad program and see if they pay GA tuition. Just make sure you work for a good professor. I've been told some are slave-drivers and others are awesome.

No problem. I didn't even know about it myself until I talked to a secretary a few days ago. She randomly brought it up when I said I didn't know if I'd be able to pay for grad school. I always knew GA's existed (been taught by a few of them), but I never knew they got tuition paid for and a little extra for living expenses. That's a really great deal!
