Opening up 1L fall semester grades is a nerve-wracking process. When I found out what my grades were, I was happy but not overjoyed. I had set low expectations for myself and just wanted Bs (especially for civil procedure – what a hard class). I performed a little better than expected and landed slightly above median for the fall semester. (Two B+s, one A-) Reflecting back to the level of effort I put in, I’m not really surprised by my grades. Based on the amount of effort I spent on Torts, I’m not surprised that I performed better in that…
