Lrgal Writinf [class] vs Exam Writing

Post by goosey » Wed Sep 22, 2010 11:19 am

different? the same? Please discuss.

I did leews and his approach is VERY different than what my legal writing professor is teaching us. Is the legal writing we do for our memos different than what we should be doing on exams?

Not entirely different, but this depends on your prof. Check out this thread: http://top-law-schools.com/forums/viewt ... 3&t=129945

Also, legal writing profs are pretty random. Ours basically told us he doesn't like how the other profs do it and he's going to do it differently, by God.
