is there still hope after failing in 1L?
hello everyone, i don’t know what should i do with my law school journey. i’m currently a 1L, and last semester i failed consti, crim, and pfr. it really affected me mentally and emotionally. now in my second semester, i honestly don’t know if i’ll pass my subjects either.
i know i need to improve and reevaluate my study habits, and believe me, i’ve really been trying :’) but despite my efforts, i feel exhausted and burned out. my biggest dilemma right now is that there’s a high chance my current law school may no longer accept me for 2L.
i’m also thinking about the possibility of transferring if ever. would any law school still accept me despite my failed subjects? i’m particularly eyeing arellano, but i honestly don’t know if i still have a chance.
honestly, this whole experience has been taking a toll on me mentally and emotionally. i’ve been crying almost every night and feeling extremely anxious about my future. i feel lost and discouraged right now, and i don’t know what step to take next.
for those who have gone through something similar, how did you handle it? should i continue, take a break/LOA, transfer, or reconsider this path altogether? :’)
