    1. Hi, what is your advice on trying to get on law review as a 3L? Is it even worth it at that point?

    2. Hi Nina. You will have to check with the law reviews at your school to see if this is possible. For some schools, you are required to sit for a competition after 1L to get on any journal. For others though (Harvard for example) you can simply write a letter to the journal and ask join. Harvard only required you to sit for the competition for the Law Review but there are several other journals (all of which are highly ranked) to select from. I suppose other schools have this as an option. At any rate, it would not hurt to reach out to the journal to see if you can join. I just worked on a journal for one term (I did not like it) but even with that I could add it to my resume.
