Law School Success

I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania (B.A. Economics) and entered law school.

I almost failed the first semester because I was unaware of how to study. Approximately 5% of law students fail and withdraw every year.

Traditional teachers and traditional books will tell you to read each case, brief it (summarize it) to be prepared for class and the teacher's scrutiny.

However, unless you first read the commercial law outlines (e.g. Emmanuel's), and read the commercial briefs (specific rule of law to be learned in each case -e.g. Casenotes), you will be lost as to what you are learning and what the teacher is talking about. You will also waste time reading cases upon cases only to find you need to memorize a few sentences of law.

Use of speed reading and memory tools (techniques) is also mentioned for exams as well as for the Bar Exam.
