Anyone doing the write on for LR? Have any good samples on format and footnotes and such?

You finish yours? I'm working on mine now. Ended up 2 spots out of grading on and I'm hating having to do this.

Yeah. Mine is due Monday at midnight and I just started it yesterday. It's probably going to be terrible

scored a 160, which is definitely what I expected / deserved, though it's more than a few points lower than I was hoping for
did great on 3 sections but bombed the games section that they included on the test
oh well, I went into it only having prepared for a month and am more than prepared to take it again in the fall after more work, especially now that I know exactly where my weaknesses lie

Good luck to both of you . Just finished my 1L year in the top 15% so if you want any advice or anything either now or in the fall once you've started, feel free to PM me.

Thanks man, I'm sure I'll take you up on that at some point. Congrats on the finish, too. We're about to be mailed our suggested summer reading. The name escapes me, but it's some prep book. I know I won't feel this way in a few months, but I'm getting ready for it to get started.

Getting to Maybe? I know a lot of people read that prior to 1L year. I honestly did no prep reading whatsoever and did not feel disadvantaged in any way.

Yeah, that might be the one. I'm sure you're right about the reading, too. Maybe it has some helpful tidbits or whatever but at the end of the day you still have to just do the work.

How far from campus did you live?

I live probably 1/2 mile from the law school. It's nice

Honestly, it's not as much work and as difficult as people would have you believe. Just have a plan, understand the big picture, read supplements and start doing practice tests early. Don't get lost in the fine details of the cases. I know it sounds counterintuitive because all you do is read cases, but it's true. If you get called out in class one day and get tripped up over some detail it might be embarrassing but it'll have literally no impact on your grades, which is what you should be primarily focused on

many of the books on the subject recommend taking it in June due to less competition and the fact that you can soon re-take it in the fall
