I just finished the first CD (1/7) of LEEWS and don't feel like I got much out of it. Does it become more useful later on?

i felt it was only helpful for a little reassurance.. definitely helps as far as structure and whatever.. basically, answer the questions that you are asked so read the stem first.. then apply law to fact.. 1L and not feeling confident at the moment so grain of salt

id say it depends on whether you have gotten any feedback from professors yet.. if you have and you know what they want, then hypos would probably be a better use of time - if not and you are just taking a guess at what kind of analysis they want to see then LEEWS is probably the best out there

Cool story bro. There is some good content on here that is obscured by your many pointless threads. Knock it off.

scan over the primer (if necessary) and do hypos. such a waste of time right now to listen to 10 hours of wentworth (unless ur doing it while u sleep or something)

Not worth it to do it now. He takes hours to talk about a little point. Might be worth reading over the Primer and talking what you can from it, though.

listen at double speed while you're driving or on the bus or working out and can't do other work. no tradeoff then.

It will help you with structuring your exam and how to plan an answer. So depending on how much assistance you feel that you need in that area, you may or may not want to listen to the whole damn thing. But above posts are correct, do a load of hypotheticals practicing what you learn from LEEWS and the techniques become second nature.
