Remember Legally Blonde? All kidding aside Elle learned key things that will help you out:
1. Always be prepared and do the readings for class
2. Make friends so people won't screw you over
3. Study hard, but don't forget to take time for yourself (remember those manicures and studying on the bike?)
4. Never answer unless you are absolutely certain.
5. If you don't know the answer, you don't get to say.
6. Don't let the @ssholes get to you
Good Luck and study hard! The first year is horrible but you'll get through it. Always remember, your law school wouldn't have let you in if they didn't think you could succeed.

Congratulations and welcome to studying Law! Always treat the studying of Law as a full time job. Keep focused and spend at least 10-20 hours p/w on each unit. Keep up to date with the latest legislation or law reforms.

Tell the truth and work for justice. Don't just try to screw the other guy and chalk up "victories".
