CSWS, baby.
You dont watch suits... Yes, you must watch. Awesome show.
It's an amazing show. Really surprised me. And I'm not one who normally watches a ton of tv.

I've heard Sprankling's "Understanding" supplement is legit.

Lady Gaga show in Brooklyn I was planning on going to was cancelled due to her hip surgery...bummed, but maybe that's God's way of saying that I should be GRINDING every waking hour during my spring break? :lol:

Ditto...can't imagine how crunched the 1Ls going on spring break pro bono trips will feel. I can't imagine volunteering for 40 hours/week+travelling on top of exam prep! One of my mentors said she didn't do any schoolwork the entire break. :shock:

Questions for the CSWS, bros (and gals). . .

I received a code for free supplement from Aspen. What shalt I get?! I am taking Ks/Crim/Con this semester and I already have the K's E&E, Dressler, and Chemerinsky. Should I pick up a Crunchtime? Any suggestions on which one may be most helpful?

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

9:18 PM. Friday night. My iPhone beeps. "Hey, want to watch a movie?"

I open up my calendar app. 10 weeks till finals. I stare back at my phone. I respond with a simple "No."

Moments like these make the difference. CSWS is a slow, steady battle. Do your time now. It will pay off.

4 hours left... 4 hours left...

Edit: See this? Before and after. Before finals: CSWS. After finals: PROFIT.

K's: Farnsworth. Also, Chirelstein is great: http://www.amazon.com/Chirelsteins-Conc ... B0041T61UE
Criminal: Dressler.
Con: Chereminsky.

E&Es are good for hypos for legal reasoning. Develop this skill.

I second Farnsworth. I credit my A in Ks to him. RIP.
