Nine Easy Ways to F*ck Up In Law School: A Skills-Based Legal Analysis Guide (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "Nine Easy Ways to F*ck Up In Law School: A Skills-Based Legal Analysis Guide (en Inglés)"
Lawyer and university professor Olga A. Possé wants to be clear: law school is hard. Her new book isn't one of those deceptively cheery law school guides. Instead, by examining the successes and failures of law students, Possé offers a proactive approach to understanding and avoiding nine common, insidious, and GPA damaging pitfalls that have consistently plagued law students for decades. In Nine Easy Ways to F*ck Up in Law School, Possé covers how to choose the right law school for the right reasons, adjust to unfamiliar law school teaching methods, avoid the nine f*ck ups that destroy law school GPAs, master case law analysis, case briefing and case synthesis skills, apply statutory interpretation rules, write effective law school course outlines to prepare for final exams, practice the I/ARAC exam format, outline comprehensive final exam answers, develop a lawyerly writing style for final exams, weigh the pros and cons of extracurriculars, and get that perfect job. Olga A. Possé has over twenty years of experience as a teacher, mentor, and guide for prelaw and law students. She's seen every possible academic pitfall and exposes the nine major reasons why law students fail to maximize their potential. Possé's new guide to the law school experience tells you exactly what you should focus on (mastering advanced language and legal analysis skills) and what you should avoid (the nine preventable f*ck ups). By showing you exactly how easy it is to screw up, she helps you to protect your GPA and outrival your law school competition. When Possé's niece announced she was going to law school and started to ask questions about what to expect, Possé realized how ill-prepared many law students are. So she decided to write a book that shows prospective law students what law school is really like. She has spent over twenty years teaching substantive law, legal analysis and legal writing skills to prelaw students at SUNY Buffalo and polled hundreds of post-1L law students for her book research. Succeeding at law school means planning not to fail. Get off on the right foot with Possé's new book.
