Torts and Time Management (Ep. 5)

Abhi and Aaminah kick things off with practical time-management advice, urging 1Ls to show up on day one with a scheduling system that can handle classes plus the swirl of lunches, groups, and guest speakers. They pivot to casebooks and briefing, stressing active, focused reading and sharing strategies to tame the heavy workload. In listener Q&A, they normalize nerves about cold calls and social dynamics, reminding students to give others—and themselves—grace and to stay centered on their own progress. For current events, they note Arizona’s criminal-lawyer shortage and a proposal pairing a one-year MLS with a two-year apprenticeship to staff public defense.
