Mid-Semester Blues….

6145170190_d37fbf2c4e_zWe’re just about at the half-way point for the Fall Semester, which for law students means it’s time to get serious about understanding and organizing class materials and notes.  Remember – no matter how smart you are, you’re not going to be able to learn all of this stuff the night before your final exam.

Mid-Semester Blues...

We're just about at the half-way point for the Fall Semester, which for law students means it's time to get serious about understanding and organizing class materials and notes.  Remember - no matter how smart you are, you're not going to be able to learn all of this stuff the night before your final exam.


Sorry, that's just not how law school works.


The CALI Roadshow

CALI WILL BE THERE!

The CALI Roadshow

Does your law school have a Library Fair?  Or a Database Day?  How about a Faculty Brown Bag Series?  Or are you in a metropolitan area with some other law schools and you want an excuse to meet with the faculty and staff of them?

CALI WILL BE THERE!

It’s Never Too Early in the Semester to Start Taking CALI Lessons

If you haven’t been warned yet, law school exams are not like undergraduate exams. If you were able to get by with cramming the night (or even week) before finals, unfortunately that’s not going to work now.  Even if it did work for your exams, that’s not the way to retain knowledge – and you’re going to want to remember the law for the bar exam and your future career!
