If you are a Law student, if you are a first generation in law, then you will have to work harder than others.
If you feel inclined, you can start working from college days by making and daily updating two registers.
1) A register of books you have read. Late Attorney General M C Setalvad used to keep register of books he had read. It's colums can show Sr.No., Title of Book, Name of Author, year of publication, number of pages and Dates on which you have read book.
2) Register of Law Reports of Cases you have actually read. It's columns can be Sr.No, Title of Case, Names of Judges, Law and sections involved and Points as you understood from cases, dates on which read.
After taking law degree, when you will join Bar, you may feel edge over others if you have these two registers. For job interview if any, these will be good testimonials to show that you are not lazy and you are capable of hard work.
