I don't know where I found these, probably on Reddit (I've ignored r/LawSchool and r/lawschooladmissions in this essay because all of Reddit is toxic and those two subs are no exception). At the time I found these (and presumably when they were updated), he was the CEO of a nonprofit called the Terry Foundation. A lot of his opinions hold up, and I've uploaded them here as PDFs at Why Not to Go to Law School and Guide to Making Good Grades in Law School. All credit goes to Campbell for these resources. If you only take two things from these documents, let them be "**law school is hell**" and "**outline early, outline often**." +- During my undergraduate studies, I stumbled across an excellent account by Rhett Campbell, a retired energy bankruptcy attorney.

If you only take two things from these documents, let them be "**law school is hell**" and "**outline early, outline often**." - Sidebar: I do agree with Campbell's view that there's a certain "fire in the belly" that you need to be a lawyer. I think I satisfied this because reading these documents made me excited, not stressed. - Sidebar x2: The resources he recommended weren't that helpful to me. The real value of his writings is his firsthand experience. - During the application cycle, I also enjoyed Kathryne Young's book [How to be Sort of Happy in Law School](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35793679-how-to-be-sort-of-happy-in-law-school), and I think it provides a realistic expectation of what it means to be a law student while also being a person.
