    I failed 3 times, i lost money to reviews that never helped but the major thing is that I've not lost hope

      Passing the LSAT is when you study hard,if you can't study or you don't have time for your studies I'd advise you get yourself help like Mr Thomas

      I had interest in working with him but I was discouraged by my friends out of ignorance 😔

      I have a cousin who never studied much,we studied together but she gives most of her time to her phone than studies after writing the LSAT test she passed and I failed😣, I asked her how she did it, just found out she got her help from Mr Thomas ..

      Sometimes hard work doesn’t pay you have to back it up with smartness🤓, I think your cousin understood that perfectly

    Congrats on getting into UT that is so amazing 🤩 Just binge watched all of your videos and I love your content! I just decided to take a gap year to save money and get a higher score and UT is one of my top choices. I would love to hear about your experience thus far as a first gen POC student!

    It's great that you have a background on Con Law & Crim Law, but what you'll learn in these courses is all new content. It involves a lot of BLLs ( Black Letter Law). So on that note, you'll be starting from scratch.

    • @AmarisIsabelDiaz
      @AmarisIsabelDiaz  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      oh I'm sure the content will be different, but I think being familiar with some of the vocabulary and concepts like culpable mental states and strict scrutiny will definitely help in understanding the readings and in-class discussions more!!

    Hey! Quick question; do you think that UT law school is extraordinarily
    challenging as a 1L? Or is it fairly straight forward for the most part?

    • @AmarisIsabelDiaz
      @AmarisIsabelDiaz  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I wouldn't say 1L has been extraordinary challenging but something I have been coming to terms with recently is the fact since UT is a T20 school, there are many brilliant and intelligent people here and that means that I won't always be the shining star in the class. That might sound silly but I think that is the best way to explain the rigor of Texas Law.

    I deferred until next year (was a bit worried about class size). But I'll see you on campus next year. Good luck on your upcoming tests!

    • @AmarisIsabelDiaz
      @AmarisIsabelDiaz  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was definitely super stressed about the size of the class but honestly it hasn't been that big of a detriment! Since we are split up into sections, and further into societies, it has felt like I am still getting a small school experience even the class is over 400+!

    • @jamesticknor1134
      @jamesticknor1134 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@AmarisIsabelDiaz For me, I was stressed about the class size because I wasn't sure if the career services office would be able to give my class the same quality of attention and that it'd be more competitive for law review (since I want BigLaw).
