    Hi Angela! Thank you for the valuable content! How much time on average do you think one should spend in doing the case brief? Do you need to read the whole case to do the case brief? Thanks so much in advance!

    • @AngelaVorpahl
      @AngelaVorpahl  3 месяца назад +2

      Good question! I probably need to do an updated version of this video. 😆As I've seen law school strategy evolve over the years, I'm actually a HUGE fan of (1) getting a case brief from chatGPT (as a baseline foundation); (2) watch and takes notes on the Quimbee case brief video (to actually understand the case); and (3) skim/read the case (depending on whether your professor is a random/aggressive cold-caller). In an ideal world, steps (1) and (2) would take no more than 30 minutes. When it comes to step (3) that could take up to 15 minutes per page of the case (if you're investing the time to read and takes notes on every line of the case) or ideally no longer than an additional 15-30 minutes total (if you've transitioned to skimming the case and relying on taking incredibly detailed class notes on your professor's lecture).
      Let me know how that lands!

      @@AngelaVorpahl ​ @AngelaVorpahl Thank you very much for this elaborate answer. I really appreciate it. I'm a Canadian law student actually so I don't think Quimbee is of much help unfortunately :( I am able to get a lot of case summaries off Lexis though which I find is helpful. So are you recommending I spend about 45-1h per case? That would be about 8 hours per class per week just reading the case. Do you think it's a good use of my time and would not be better off sparing some time for outlining?

    Im really stuggling with case briefs. I’m able to get everything in the FIRAC theorem as explained by Professor Baez correct. But with the rule of law I’m really struggling. I’m not exactly able to identify it. Or at least that’s what I feel because I just state the statute that is applicable. Am I right or wrong?

    • @AngelaVorpahl
      @AngelaVorpahl  4 месяца назад

      If you're a law student and the case brief is not for a grade and/or your professor hasn't explicitly prohibited the use of AI, I'd say heck yes! It can absolutely help you understand the content and main takeaways of a case before you read it.

    It's busy work. No real-life lawyer does case briefs. Law school is basically hazing to keep down the number of lawyers so lawyers' pay stays high.
