I constantly feel that I don't know shit. It's not that I am poor academically or have the inability to understand things; I have won a few moots and have published few papers. Academically, also doing decent but I constantly feel I don't actually know anything, moreover, I definitely feel that it's going to be the same for at least the next 7-8 years.
I see seniors, young litigators and associates, and I get the same vibe from some of them. Is it just how the field is or am I not pushing myself enough? I honestly feel that even if I just sit and study for the next two years, I will feel same as now. Am I stupid?
Ive taught a good amount of time. And honestly- students who worry about not knowing things or not learning enough- theyre usually just going through imposter syndrome. You probably know more than you think. And even if you dont- you can learn and push. Learning is a lifelong endeavour with the law. Youll be fine. No one is too stupid to learn the law.
