Today I went to meet with one of my law professors about my ability to interview clients. I had to do a mock interview that was taped and then sit down with my professor to critique it.
I did not feel confident about my interview and left on the day I did it feeling like I have a lot to learn (which I do).
The discussion with my professor was about an hour long and very helpful. Professor Smith did a wonderful job of helping me to see my strengths, areas to improve, and making me feel like I actually right on track.
One thing she pointed out about me is that I am a problem solver which is good but sometimes I try to solve the problem to quickly, before I have enough information. As I thought about this insight I realized that this is so true about me. So for all of you friends and family out there that I have given quick advice to please know that I now realize I did not have the whole story most the time.
It is amazing what law school can teach you!

Oh man, that would be so hard. I hate both having to watch myself on video and getting criticism. Go you for being such a great sport about it!
wow... That would be tough.... but nice at the same time, to sit privately with you Prof. and review it.....
Keep up the great work!!!
so are you saying you set Kris and I up too soon...without getting all of the needed information??? :)
Did you really need to go to Law school to learn that you are a problem solver? Haven't we been telling you that for years?? ;)
