LearnLeo
Can anyone tell me more about LearnLeo (https://learnleo.com/)? Is it of any use or is it a waste of time?

Re: LearnLeo
Since we literally start classes tomorrow (I recognized your name from the NYU thread), it looks like this would largely be a waste of time. I know I have too much reading to spend more time reading about how I should read.
Edit: Also, after taking a closer look at who runs the site, none of them are from NYU. The general advice I've gotten about prepping outlines, etc. is that it is a bad idea to rely on other people's work. People always recommend checking against old outlines for a class, etc., but the one absolute I've heard is that reviewing material for a different school/professor's version of your 1L course is a recipe for disaster. That professor may be teaching different cases, different takes on concepts, etc. Studying how someone else teaches Contracts isn't going to help with exams.

Ya, I guessed as much. Someone posted a link to it on the NYU Facebook page and it looked pointless, but I wanted to know what people thought on TLS (just in case!)
