4.0 out of 5 stars
A fun look at law school,
By A Customer
This review is from: Law School Survival Guide (Paperback)
I've read most of the "prepare for law school" books and this was my favorite. It was funny and upbeat and didn't tell you what a huge mistake you'd made in going to law school. It was not as technical as some others, but offered a lot of opinions from actual law students.

helpful and interesting,
By A Customer
This review is from: Law School Survival Guide (Paperback)
While I am just getting ready to go to law school at the University of Richmond, this book has calmed some of my fears, but it has also raised a few as well. I plan to use this book as a reference during my first year. I hope that I will be able to provide more positive comments as my first year progresses.
