<b>Law School Exams: Preparing and Writing to Win</b> provides law students with a practical guide to success, from admission to law school to the first set of exams. This 200-page paperback conveys two points about exam taking that are vital to every law student: (1) Exam scores can always be improved if the student masters effective exam techniques such as those outlined in this book, and ( 2) preparing to perform well on exams begins with a positive mind-set on the first day of class and steadily proceeds with solid study techniques throughout the semester. <p class="copymedium"> <b>Well written and highly accessible, this concise paperback guides law students, step-by-step, through procedures that will help them take exams successfully:</b> </p> <ul> <li class="copymedium"> the author's style is accessible and reassuring; recognizing that law students operate under severe time constraints, he makes his points clearly and concisely </li> <li class="copymedium"> starting with creative examples and illustrations in familiar, nonlegal contexts, the author introduces students to new concepts by analogy and then advances to more complex legal examples </li> <li class="copymedium"> exercises and practice exams, with a focus on essay questions and model answers, help students identify their strengths and weaknesses, plan strategies, and organize their efforts </li> <li class="copymedium"> the author addresses techniques for maximizing scores on several types of essay questions, as well as on multiple-choice and other objective questions </li> <li class="copymedium"> the author helps students understand why the typical law school essay question requires a balanced analysis with arguments for both sides, rather than identification of a clear answer </li> <li class="copymedium"> assignments and exercises facilitate active learning. </li> </ul> <b>In addition to teaching students analysis and exam-taking skills, Law School Exams: Preparing and Writing to Win addresses exam anxiety with a helpful, positive perspective.
