Handy and informative

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

This book is for you only if you are considering attending law school. The ‘chapters’ of the book would be helpful if they related to the sections that the book continually tells the listener to go back and review for minor details.

This book is not an overview of the legal profession. This book is only for those 12 or 18 months from applying for law school.

The title of the book signals the book’s EXACT demographic
