Are you really? Any advice? I'm applying to nearly everywhere within my score range. Also, welcome home!And I should get my sleep now? You know, I need about 20 hours of sleep a day... speaking of days, I was wandering around BC, the other day, and saw three law students. They all looked really depressed and I think one was contemplating throwing himself under the wheels of my car.
I applied to every school I thought was reasonably within my range also. Depression generally sets in a month (or day) or two into your first year (this is where the alcohol comes in). But by the third year, its not so bad.
Advice? Try not to stress out too much over your grades.. though they do matter in getting summer jobs, and eventually a real job, they aren't the only thing that matters. And after your first job, they REALLY won't matter much.
If you're going to sleep 20 hours a day, you should sit in the back a lot. Also, check out this blog post I came across on strategies for getting "called-on" in class -

It'll be funnier once you're in law school!
