Abhi is joined by attorney and 1L strategy coach Angela Vorpahl to unpack what students should expect, and how to prepare, for their first year of law school. Angela explains how law firm recruiting for 1L and 2L summer positions has shifted earlier than ever, with competitive firms now hiring in the fall of 1L. She urges students to be proactive by finalizing resumes, cover letters, and diversity statements before classes begin, and she shares strategies for managing time, staying focused, and making grades count in the critical first semester.
