The Impact of AI on Law Firms - a 5 Minute Guide
What LLB course options should you choose?
Has your uni already started asking you which subjects you want to study next year? We hope that you’re excited about what’s on offer!
Different institutions inform you of your choices in different ways. Perhaps they circulate some documents about it, or maybe they hold an option fair for you to go along and meet academics and students currently following their modules. Whatever the process make sure you engage!
How to be more productive with your time so you can do more than just study
Time management is a critical skill for law students - we all know that the coursework is extensive and the workload can be overwhelming, but it is also a key skill that law firms will be looking for when interviewing. By effectively managing your time, you can ensure that you have enough time to study, complete assignments, and still have some fun.
Why you need to switch long study sessions for short study sessions
As a law student, you know how demanding and challenging your course can be. With a lot of information to learn and retain, it can be tempting to study for hours at a time in an attempt to cover everything you need to know. However, research shows that this approach may not be the most effective method of studying… and it may even lead to burnout and decreased motivation.
Will networking help you get a Training Contract?
The route to becoming a solicitor or barrister in the UK is a lengthy and competitive process, and we all know that competition for pupillages and TCs is not going to go away (if anything, it’s the opposite as we see layoffs from some city firms this year).
One thing that people always tell you to do when you say that you are applying for a TC is to make sure that you network… but is this busy work, or is it going to improve your chances of success?
Do lawyers need to be able to do maths?
We have lots of students tell us that they hate maths and that they’re no good at it. If that’s you then pause just a minute…. stay with us here. The bad news is that if you want to become a professional lawyer you certainly do need to have a basic level of numeracy. It would be a dreadful idea to tell an employer that you’re hopeless at maths and a very good idea to get yourself upskilled while you’re studying law.
Why You Need to Love Language and Words to Succeed as a Lawyer
When it comes to figuring out whether a career in law is right for you, many people don’t realise just how important a love of language and words are to having a successful career in law. This belief is definitely not helped by our favourite Netflix shows, where the “work” part of being a lawyer seems to be miraculously completed within the first 30 seconds of each new scene (who knows why Netflix doesn’t think that watching a lawyer draft contract isn’t riveting viewing?!).
How to get more done as a law student
Do you have that friend who seems to fit in twice as much stuff as everyone else? Somehow, they can get amazing marks for their work (even though they spend less time than anyone else on their assignments), their calendar is always filled with extra-curriculars, and they still have plenty of spare time to go out and socialise with their friends.
It might feel like the only logical explanation for this is that they are just way smarter than everyone else, but the more likely scenario is that they have just honed their time management skills to an expert level. And today we’re showing you how you can do this too.
