Law School in no way prepares you for drafting Pleadings so unless you are a Summer Associate during your Summer Vacations, you don't learn how to draft Pleadings until much later.

It's 3 pages long - that should tell you something! Most of the time, what they teach in law school is all theory. They don't even touch at the drafting part - at least in my time they didn't. So when you finally start working, it's like you never went to Law School. At all. I hope things will improve - at least the effort is being made to do so from what i hear.
