Re: WUSTL 3L (and others) Taking Questions
That's what I'm thinking as well. No way I'll understand all the nuance. I mean, I barely read all semester, as you well know. I'd take median in a hot second right now.TatteredDignity wrote:I'd try to advise you, but I was in the same situation and I'm not so sure it turned out well.

Did you find anything in particular to be useful? Supps, study strategies, etc...

I need to learn ethics in 1 day, haven't done half of the readings. Sigh.

Ethics summed up in one sentence: "Does what is being described sound funny? If yes, write 1000 words about it"

Re: WUSTL 3L (and others) Taking Questions
Maybe my ethical compass is misaligned, but I often find that the professional floor for ethical conduct conflicts with my conception of right/wrong. Also, I don't have strong ethical feelings about fee structures, etc. So this approach wouldn't have worked for mefl0w wrote:I have heard that this class has been CALI'd by someone going into the final cold but taking the following approach:romothesavior wrote:Seriously how do I learn Ethics in three days?

Re: WUSTL 3L (and others) Taking Questions
I just went through the practice exam, which he said is harder than our real final. Didn't seem too bad, so now i feel better. Basically this seems like torts all over again, a bagillion issues, not enough time. Classic racehorse exam.

I read for the first day of class, and the day I was on call. My book was literally in my locker for almost every other day of class. TD can vouch... I was truly 3Ling my ass off.Oban wrote:I need to learn ethics in 1 day, haven't done half of the readings. Sigh.
I'm just powering through an old outline, the MRPC, and a Nutshell. Hoping to be through the whole course by tonight, and then tomorrow I'll do old exams and some problems from the Professional Responsibility Q&A. I think I can at least snag a median grade, which I would take in a hot second.
If anybody has any other useful supps, brother Romo would be much obliged.
ETA: I've heard that as well, oban. And I've heard the PT is helpful. I'm hoping that I can at least spot the issues, nuance be damned.

Re: WUSTL 3L (and others) Taking Questions
So what does that mean, that the 50% of the class below median didn't study at all?

I'm thinking tweed elbow-patch blazer to go along with the stache. It should help make my answers extra-professorial and authoritative.

I wouldn't mind seeing someone wearing a tweed elbow patch blazer, that would be oddly comforting to me.
Now someone wearing athletic shorts, that person just annoys me.

Confused -- it's the person who annoys you, or the wearing shorts?
Anyway, max comfort. I'm not in this game to please people.

Is there a bookstore on campus that sells WUSTL Law swag? Haven't been able to find anything specific to the law school online.
