Class to read ahead in Forum

The best thing you can do over winter break is get some much-needed R&R so that you can come back and hit it hard again next semester. Burn-out is real and the going gets tough at the end of the second semester of your 1L year. In a few short months, the clock will read 3:00am and your face will be buried in a casebook or supplement. There's no need to rush it.

During the semester, reading ahead like this may be helpful (it worked for me, and apparently Nova, but YMMV). However, there's little value reading ahead when you don't have a syllabus or otherwise have any idea what to read. Sure, you could take a scatter-shot approach and just read entire supplements, but that's such a waste of time and I doubt most people would be able to retain and recall all that information when it counts (months from now).

Agreed

What about reading over outlines from your school's outline bank for the specific professor?
