5.0 out of 5 stars
Great read!,
This review is from: The Practice of Law School: Getting In and Making the Most of Your Legal Education (Paperback)
This book was a recommended read by my law school prior to beginning my first semester. The Practice of Law School was definitely worth reading. It explained life as a law student and what to expect so you are not surprised or overwhelmed. A highly recommended book!
