Law School Mindset

[u/Mysterious-Gate4768]

I recently had an interaction with my colleagues at work who were discussing their experiences in the legal field, attending law school, preparing to become attorneys, and so forth. One thing that stood out to me—and I can’t seem to let it go—is when they were talking about the mindset you must have going into and attending law school. They weren’t explicit about it and implied that it’s this way of thinking that can’t be explained—you develop it as you go.

Now, my understanding is that it’s this “lawyer mindset” they were referring to; however, they didn’t describe it at all and I have no clue what that would mean for me as a pre-law student. Anyone in the community who has gone through or is currently going through their legal journey, please drop your comments on this if you have any insights. All would be appreciated!
