EXAM PREPARATION: Conversations With Law Professors About Preparing For and Taking Exams

DebQuentel | 28 October, 2005 14:49

TOPIC: Exam Taking Skills, Outlines, and Advice for Law Students

During the week of Oct. 17, 2005, CALI's Director of Curriculum Development, Deb Quentel, spoke with six law professors about outlines, studying for class, preparing for exams, time management, and how professors grade exams. The conversations were recorded as podcasts. While these podcasts are not intended to take the place of a conversation with your professor, the professors hope that these podcasts give law students additional insight into the exam process.

Several of the professors have graciously offered to field questions from students about the exam process. Please send your questions to Deb Quentel <dquentel@cali.org>. She will forward them to the professors.

Panel 1: Professors Ron Eades, John Farago, Patrick Wiseman
Panel 2: Professors Ron Brown and Joe Grohman
Panel 3: Professor Darryl Wilson

Professors Brown and Grohman, authors of several CALI lessons on covenants, give students a framework to approach studying the material and offer real-life applications of the doctrines. They also discuss the interrelatedness of the law and explain why it's an artificial distinction (and one that complicates learning) to study property issues separate from civil procedure issues, for example.
