Given free to 1Ls at my law school,
This review is from: The Eight Secrets of Top Exam Performance in Law School (Paperback)
The author spoke at my school and everyone in the audience got a free copy. Definitely recommend. In addition to the comments by the first reviewer, it is a fast read which is key when you already have so much regular reading to keep up with. Put a copy on your toilet and you'll finish reading it in just a day or two while you are in the bathroom. Top 5% of my 1L class.

This is the Secret to Getting As that No One Knows About...,
This review is from: The Eight Secrets of Top Exam Performance in Law School (Paperback)
I don't know why this book doesn't have a review, so I figure I'd say something. This is the best book for law school. It teaches you how to see the forests from the trees. Getting to Maybe is good, in the sense that it teaches you how to address the difficulties presented in law school exam question. However, once you learn how to address the forks in the law and the forks in the facts, you need to be able to present these things to your law professor on your exam. That's where Charles Whitebread comes in. I read his book the summer before I started law school, after a lawyer at the big firm I worked at it recommended it, and he finished in the top 5% of his class. I knew how to approach lectures, outline correctly, and take law school exams. I ended up finishing in the top 10% of my 1L class, which isn't too bad. I also read Getting to Maybe, so I'm sure that reading the two books together will help a lot.
