Can you graduate with a law firm partner-level expertise?

Bill Gates used the computer for 10,000 hours at Harvard. The Beatles played for 10,000 hours before achieving celebrity status.

Across the world, it usually takes 7 years to become a partner in a law firm (approx. 10,000 hours).

10,000 hours are required to develop expertise in any given area. That’s about 27 hours a week, for 7 years.

Imagine where you’d be once you graduate, if you study constitutional law, or corporate law (or any other area of your interest) for 10,000 hours.

Or if you worked (systematically) on your networking ability for 10,000 hours, what your network would look like.
