I know, I know, waited till the last minute, but does anyone have advice on what to read/how to cram for an evidence exam due in a week?
Thanks in advance!

Buy and read the E&E. There is a badass Evidence outline somewhere on TLS (don't recall where). I went to my evidence class once, taught it to myself in 3 days. It is very doable.

You can do it. You'll be fine.
What is the format of the exam? Essay, multiple choice, or a combo? That will impact my recommendation.

All multiple choice.
Getting nervous b/c rumors that he fails people occasionally (don't want that to be me)

My evidence professor did just that. Or at least, he said he did. Of course, he also gave out multiple A+s. Kind of a jerk, but I got an A soooo. Edit: I mean A+. The reason this was surprising to me is that I'm solidly average.

Hmmm, none that stand out. Maybe legal pro? Evidence was my highest grade. I studied the hell out of the Barbri MBE questions. It turns out the exam questions were pretty similar, so I did okay. Edit: This isnt as bad as it seems. My school has a tough curve. I'm solidly in the middle. And by A, I meant A+
