A big-picture view of law school

In preparing for law school, any student should try to get a little extra information to help him or her make the transition to law school and succeed. Many books offer tips and tricks for taking notes, making outlines, and networking. This book, however, offers a bit more background on the course of study.The book contains individual essays from different teachers explain not what you should do, but why should do it. For instance, one essay discusses gays and lesbians going to law school. The essay mentions joining a society or group to help deal with the stress. Being in law school already has its intense stress, so joining a club will allow some relaxation with others who share your background. The essay went on to discuss whether mentioning sexual preference is necessary or recommended. Even for a non-gay or non-lesbian, this essay was really interesting. The author has opened up my ideas to the kinds of issues any fellow students may be going through.If you only get one book, this probably won't be the one to get. However, I have to recommend this book highly. I feel that I have a bigger overall picture what I would be getting into.

A great resource!

As a future law student, this book was an invaluable resource. I feel much more prepared for entering law school, and know what to expect from my classes. Also, it has great info on financing and issues facing women, minorities, etc. The authors of the chapters seem to be very knowlegeable and qualified. I recommend it to everyone planning to go to law school.
