Strategies & Tactics for the 1ST Year Law Student

I wish I would have had this book from the beginning of my law school career. It's very informative & gives one structure as to how to adequately prepare yourself for law school. It gives preparation tips such as preparing an outline (to assist with studies), note-taking, reviews, & test preparation. This book is very informative!
