This isn't the scientific community where you're a genius and so professors want to work with you. In law school, you show up to a lecture with 70 students, the professor talks for 2 hrs, then you go home. There is no evaluation except the final. But it's also a profession where advancement is almost entirely based on your 1) school and 2) connections. Even grades are secondary to that. It is absolutely a professor's job to get to know and promote students. Law professors write law reviews and such. My guess is that there's an appropriate outlet that will get you personal 1 on 1 time with with a professor. You're going to get a shit letter if you're just around shooting the shit anyway. It doesn't work that way. Professors don't always hire assistants for research, and often law review articles are around 100 pages and span several semesters, meaning your contribution is small. That's not the main outlet to get recommendations. It's by getting to know them and doing well in the class. And I'm already doing research for another professor. I'm talking about this one in particular however. --- It will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you. \| I did not come to bring peace to the earth, but the sword. -Jesus <cite>Callixtus posted [p:888677395] in I'm FUCKIN...
