Customer Reviews

Good law book

Preparatory book for Southern Law School in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and many others. Good book. Very informative and necessary.

1 L Future Lawyer

I purchased this book for my pre-law course. This is an excellent tool for 1L students who are clueless on what to expect when entering law school. It lays the basic understanding on how, when, and what of law. The book was very interesting and gave examples on how to study, prepare, and complete assignments for class. If you are asked to purchase this book, please do. You will not regret it and you will be prepared for the first day of class.

Great insight

I recommend this book for any entering 1L. It was a required reading for my summer before my first year and it gave me a good preview to the kind of work I would be doing and some helpful tips for note taking, exam taking, briefing, etc.
