One of my high school teachers told me, “Michael, I wish I could fail you so you’d be in my class again next year.”
Mr. G also gave me advice about becoming a lawyer, “not all lawyers are rich, you need to make sure you love the work.”
In the end, Mr. G did not fail me, and I did go on to become a lawyer. Along the way, between high school and college I wrote 250+ papers, and in doing so I became an unofficial expert on how to write essays and research papers.
