3.0 out of 5 stars did anyone edit this?, May 4, 2008

By	Jane Q. Public - See all my reviews

This review is from: Emanuel Law Outlines: Professional Responsibility (Paperback)

OK for my purposes (studying for legal ethics final exam), but contains an embarrassing number of typos! I can't believe someone let this go to print.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too barebones for the MPRE, December 28, 2007

By	Timothy Jordan (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This supplement is about as barebones as you can get. There are no glaring omissions from the material covered, but this supplement simply does not convey as much depth as is necessary for a PR class or the MPRE. I took a PR class, then waited one year before taking the MPRE, and intended on using this book as my primary refresher. It became readily apparent that my plan would need a revision once I started comparing MPRE practice exams to this supplement. The MPRE tests for nuances in the rules--nuances that this book just does not acknowledge, nevermind discuss.

3.0 out of 5 stars MPRE study guide, December 23, 2007

By	Christopher Pogue "Pogue" (Cincinnati, OH USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Emanuel Law Outlines: Professional Responsibility (Paperback)

The outlines themselves are helpful, but there is only one practice exam at the end, which does not provide explanations for right and wrong answers.

For those looking to for more exam questions with explanations I would go for another book. I borrowed a friends BARBRI book on professional responsibility and found it much more helpful. There were four practice exams, all with explanations. The downside to the BARBRI books are that you need to sign up for all their bar revue texts in order to get this one, but if you are planning to take the bar exam it is not such a big deal; you will want the other books anyway.
