Supplements aren't magic. If you're confused or your professor sucks, they can get you back on track, but the exam will only cover material that your prof focused on in class and/or assigned for readings.Nekrowizard wrote:I've been using Dressler, Chirelstein, and Glannon for their respective classes, as per TLS consensus, but I don't really feel like I'm getting anything out of them that I didn't get from reading the casebook and paying attention to the lecture. They all do help cement the concepts and application of the rules, certainly. I'm not sure that they do that to a greater extent than just reviewing my notes. If I were to get Friedenthal for Civ Pro or Perillo on Contracts or LaFave on Crim, would it make any difference, as they presumably go into greater detail? I just feel like I'm missing something with the supplementary reading.
Because so many professors hide the ball, and because law school courses can be overwhelming and confusing, supplements can be useful in some instances, but they're never necessary.
