“I can confidently say that I wouldn’t have acquired the job as a Law Clerk if it weren’t for my 4 years doing Mock Trial. Despite all those more measurable effects, perhaps the greatest effect that RUMTA has had on my post-graduation life is that it has provided me with the confidence that is required in any aspiring lawyer. ”
