How to practice and test yourself?
Posted: Sun Oct 07, 2012 2:52 pm
1L here.
So we all know the general advice, to read the assigned reading, pay attention in class... but how are we supposed to test our understanding and "application" of the material?
None of my professors have given us old exams and refuse to do so until it's closer to exam time. However, I feel like we've learned a substantial amount of information up to this point and I have no idea how to assess how well I understand the information.
Any advice on how to assess whether or not you really KNOW the material you're reading about? Right now, I'm currently going through Corbin on Contracts to supplement my understanding but I'm still not sure if this is useful or not. I feel like anyone could read these treatises and the readings but it's about applying it and I don't know how/where to practice applying it correctly!
Any advice appreciated.
