My friend graduated #1 in our law school class at UNC Chapel Hill. I asked him for his one key to performing well on law school finals… This is what he told me: “Embrace ambiguity.” Here’s why: 1. Law school exams rarely have one "correct" conclusion. Most law school exam fact patterns are intentionally vague, encouraging students to explore both sides. So, the ultimate goal isn’t to provide a correct conclusion. Instead, the goal of a law school exam is to navigate and analyze ambiguities. You’re rewarded for analyzing both sides of any given issue, so don’t leave points on the table by only addressing one side. 2. Professors reward the most points for the “analysis” portion of the answer. Unlike undergrad, you’re not really being tested on memorization and regurgitation. Instead, your professor wants to see you analyze a fact pattern and apply the law to the facts. Your written answer should be filled with facts from the exam's fact pattern. Take a look at the two sample answers below to see the difference. The first answer isn’t “wrong.” It’s likely enough for a B- or even a B. The second answer, however, is far better. Non-lawyers and aspiring lawyers—do you see the difference?

Future law students, Do everything you can to get a job in the legal field before you go to law school. Working at Jacob Jensen & Associates for two years while I was an undergrad was one of the best things to prepare me for law school and a future career as an attorney.

And though the road to law school was different for each of them, the start of their careers as attorneys will have the same starting point.
