Description
Whether you are in your first or final year of law school, you should be using supplements. Although they can't do the work for you, commercial supplements can provide valuable insight and help fill the gaps in your understanding. Supplements can provide a roadmap for the topic you're studying, fill in missing details, and - in some cases - provide a more direct explanation of what you're discussing in class.
Want to find out more about what supplements can do for you and how can you use them effectively? Listen in!
In this episode we discuss:
What supplements are
How supplements can help
Different types of law school supplements you can use
Lee and Alison's favorite supplements
How to know what information in the supplement you should use (and shouldn't)
Should you read a supplement before class or after class?
How to avoid information overload
How supplements can work with your outlining
Using supplements with practice exams
Finding the right supplements for your course
Supplements can be a valuable tool for law school success. The key is to use them to complement your reading, lectures and study - and not in place of those methods.
Best of luck!
