Hiring partners may ask questions like this to get to know you better. They can probably guess which courses you liked if you want to practice personal injury, so now, they want to know what you disliked. This allows you to talk about what you learned from something you did not enjoy. You may not love every task that will be assigned to you as an associate, but it is important to show that you will take these opportunities to learn new skills or lessons.

"I did not enjoy my Federal Taxation course that I registered for in my second year. It was focused on transactions and numbers. When I practice law, I want to help people do more than simply follow the rules. I want to pursue justice. However, the tax course did teach me how to read statutes filled with rules and exceptions. In order to understand the case law, and perform well on the exams, I had to master an area of law that is notoriously filled with loopholes and technicalities. For me, I am best motivated when I feel as though I am applying the law in a way that helps specific individuals get justice."
