Book Reviews of Law School Without Fear: Strategies for Success (2nd Edition)
Book Review: Better than I thought it would be
Summary: 4 Stars
Given the title of this book, I was expecting a bunch of fluff and drivel. But it's a somewhat useful book to read before starting your first year. That way you won't need to worry about learning legal/procedural basics while you're figuring out tort law. Most people in my class read about half of it. The odds are you'll skip a few chapters unless you completely slept through civics class.
