Keep up writing in math! I am a high school math teacher and I would love my students to be able to write about the mathematics and they struggle. Explaining their work rather than just “doing” the work is a challenge!

I agree ^^. Being able to explain how they solved a problem and why they chose that particular strategy is proof that they understand what they did and why they did it. Also, if you haven’t taught math in the past several years, study the standards. Things are very different now than how most of us were taught

Curious what is involved with lateraling as a partner financially from a nuts/bolts perspective. I don’t mean LPQs or negotiating comp, but the practical things like timing of exit and how that relates to end of year draws, profit-sharing contributions, getting your capital back, and all that. My firm has a lot of aspects of comp and benefits and it seems like a ton of moving parts. Not planning on leaving but I may have to start listening to recruiters if comp doesn’t go well.
