All about Law School with Students Ryan McCarthy, Erinn Harder, and Cathy Grott

from Good Morning and May It Please the Court · host Ryan Aikin

What is law school really like?In this episode, we sit down with three third-year law students to talk about the path that brought them here and what the experience has actually been like from the inside. Each intern offers a unique perspective; Ryan grew up in a family of lawyers, Erin is the first in her family to enter the legal world, and Cathy is pursuing a life-long dream of attending law school after retirement. Their journeys are different - but they’ve all arrived at the same destination.We talk about first-week panic, imposter syndrome, cold calls, and the humbling reality of 1L year. We discuss finding your people, balancing work and school, how law school changes the way you think (yes, even down to the comma), and what they wish they had known before starting.If you’re considering law school, or just curious what it’s really like, this one’s for you.
