I just wanted to pop in the comments to say how much I appreciate your transparency with us. You genuinely want to help other students and aspiring lawyers. It’s unique to come by nowadays and I want you to know it is not unnoticed or unappreciated.
appreciate this so much velvet!!! this means a lot to hear honestly. it gets hard sometimes yelling into the void and of course trolls are never any fun.... these help really combat and motivate me to keep going :)
Ironically, I did terribly in HS but, somehow, managed to get (mostly) straight A's in University. (I genuinely don't know what clicked but I'd argue that it was age and because I studied something I was interested in, Philosophy). Regardless, I'm now working at a law firm and I want to become a legal assistant then I want to go to law school. Do you think that it's a wise idea to work at the same firm while going to law school?
I just graduated from UC Berkeley 2024. I have a 3.6 (3.7) for law school. I got screwed with my freshmen year gpa cuz I was online only cuz covid and undiagnosed adhd. My gpa sucked. I got a 3.8+ each semester after that. Law school didn’t care about excuses. I had research at UC Berkeley School of law. I am going to take lsat in October. Im studying hard but I have hard time with test cuz my adhd. I’m trying to get accommodations. I hope to go back to UC Berkeley for law. I love Berkeley.
I have a 3.2 from failing 2 courses due to bad circumstances but im still applying to law schools! u have a much better chance than some ppl like me so feel better. u got this! :))
Hello, I really appreciate this video. I am going to Berkeley as an undergrad transfer this Fall for Data Science and Economics and wanted to go into law (specifically in the technology, IP, patent space). What was your major at Berkeley? Also, what kind of law are you trying to pursue? Once again, I really appreciate the content!
Let's go Julian! Glad to see you starting on TH-cam. No one, and I mean no one in industry whether it's finance or consulting talks about mental health. It's always go go go, so very refreshing to hear your transparency as a whole and content like this give a ton of perspective into what's possible as well. Kudos, keep up the great work.
I so so appreciate this Alex!!!! I'm definitely still a noobie here on YT but trying to learn quick lol, more m health content coming as soon as I can!!!
How did you get the white house internship? And would you advise being more active in school related organizations or focusing on internships? I’ve gotten internships but I haven’t been very involved with my school and it’s stressing me out😭
Hello I'm Michael matzinger in okmulgee Oklahoma my civil rights have been violated and no response or active investigation has been started as best to my knowledge and harassment to me for a long time in Oklahoma, okmulgee has me worried about my son's who are in Oklahoma DHS custody .and the harassers claim or simulate the cries of my son's saying that they want their father and the harassers claim That they will kill my son's
I'm seeking help in ok.ulgee Oklahoma where corruption is happening it's on the local news and allegations of harassment ..I'm being harassed by neighbors, authorities in okmulgee also threats to my children the harassers tell the government agencies that I'm psycho or mental and a druggie
Even though you had great stats, you went from the 140s to 170 on the LSAT. Very inspiring.

Full time law school? No. Because 1L is pretty jam-packed, and you will get burnt out.
I have no interest in law school, or law for that matter, but this video was so....warm and comforting:) thank you for making my day, Julian!
You are so welcome!

I applied online! And I'd advise focus on internships - that will look better on your resume long term
This is so incredibly informative for young people thinking about their future education. Thank you for sharing!
Wait, so you applied in third year? That’s amazing ! I want to do the same, when did you write your lsat? (Freshman summer, sophmore summer, etc..)
i did! I took LSAT september of my third year!

Very smart dude, well spoken, and fun personality. You’re going to succeed in any field.
Hi! My school also calculates from a 4.0 GPA scale. Are you sure LSAC/CAS inflates it to match a 4.3 scale? Or am I at a disadvantage? :(
LSAC will correct it from what I know!
@@julianinlaw Ok, thank you!!
Thanks for sharing this info❤
Anytime.
Does where you go to school dictates your future success? I told “most” employers employees from well known colleges.
Definitely not! It can help w recruiting but big picture is you can go anywhere from any school, it just may take more time.
What kind. Of research should we do?
How did you start in the 140s and make it to the 170s on the LSAT?
Please help!
spam p tests! i have a tiktok playlist on this too!
0:42 wow did you debate for Folsom too?
I didn't actually - our speech/debate team was very low key/small and i was more focused on school!
@@julianinlawthat’s so cool!! I asked because I debated in California and Folsom when I debated (2017-2021) had a really good team
which is more prestigious UCLA or NYU in general?
definitely NYU
