[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lawyers aren’t smart enough to do tech[/quote]

Thr former tech lawyers I know are barely smart enough to do law in many cases. One former Stanford electrical engineer I went to a T10 law school with graduated in the bottom of our class, got a summer job anyway, got no offered, and now doesn’t practice. [/quote]

This is something I have been hearing about STEM vs Poly Sci/History/English degrees.  The STEM kids take a mid-level History class thinking they will walk into an A because their avg class requires lots of busy math work then there is a real chance of gettin a D or F (because of how the professor tests more than anything).  Where the History class requires a couple papers that the STEM kid gets a C in because they dont know how to write (both on basic structure level and a support a thesis college level). But the history professor is much less willing to fail a paper that has an opinion aspect/(s)he has to subjectively judge than a STEM test where there is a right or wrong answer.[/quote]

Law students with tech backgrounds often do poorly on law school exams because they miss that it’s not about getting to the “right” answer and instead examining both sides of the argument. [/quote]
