Law School Study With Me - My Killer Lecture Note Taking Method
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- This study with me in law school video takes you through a day studying in the Christmas holidays at the start of the final bit of studying before becoming a lawyer in UK - the LPC. I take you through a day studying law, showing how I take lecture notes in law school 📚
I think my lecture note taking method is simple, but highly effective and I'm hoping that you'll take away some great tips you can implement in your own studies! Taking effective lecture notes makes life as a student so much easier - once you have quality lecture notes you can much more easily write essays, answer questions and revise for exams.

Who I am:
I'm a trainee lawyer studying in London. I graduated from Cambridge, speak French and Spanish and don’t believe in “natural talent” 😮 BUT... I do believe that TOGETHER, WE ARE ALL CAPABLE OF POSITIVITY, PRODUCTIVITY AND SUCCESS.

"let myself have a bit of a lie-in" wAKES UP AT 8.45AM
lmao I give myself a lie-in and wake up at 2PM
This is me I study til 12, watch Netflix til 2am, set my alarm to 9am but wake up at 12 noon lol
Thats pretty late if you're a productive person.
In law school in US lol a “lie-in” is 6:45
Lol
in law school, we use ancient books that contain archaic words, obsolete doctrines, jurisprudence which mention laws that have already become repealed and i think it's inefficient, unreliable and confusing. it's so refreshing seeing lectures being uploaded online in a format that's easy to comprehend and remember.
Analog will always be superior.
After a “wee bit of procrastination” I start studying at 2am
I get strong Ali Abdaal vibes here.
Bruh imagine being a gamer and already playing competitively but while doing a homework you get ti watch Ali Abdaal then get addicted studying. Lmfao, never thought this would happen in my life I absolutely hate school and when temps colder I bring a small pillow in my backpack so that I can sleep in school.
@@pogan4916 Same I am very competitive in everything that I do, and same as you GAMING. once I discovered all of these ways, techniques and methods to study better I have been addicted to becoming the best student I can be.
@@deadl1ne455 dude can't even choose what to do. Chase my Esport career or my education, I'm still 13 though, though I know I can achieve greater heights in Education I find it hard because my family and I is in a bad financial spot after something happened that's why I feel like Esport is the go-to place to me at the same time I feel bad about it like oh what about after Esport retirement. That kinda sucks tbh, I only got a few choices in careers as I live in a terrible country where poverty exists and low income is common that's why I need to choose between the basic jobs.
yes he's starting to talk like Ali haha
Bruh why do you guys like comparing every study tuber to Ali
thank you bruh, hope you become one of the awesome lawyers in UK..
I am currently a law student and this is super helpful. Great job : ) Thanks for sharing
Im a lawyer and your methods have worked very satisfactorily for me!
Thanks for all of the great video's! I start my 1L semester next week and I feel more confident as a result of watching your video's!
Wow. I found this so helpful! Especially as I've just started Business Organisation Law this semester!
yesss wikipedia is so good!! explains stuff simply and concisely and then you can branch out from there in what you're interested in
This was so thorough and helpful thank you ✌🏼😬
I am a law student,thank you so much this is very helpfullll 🙂 God bless you
Really helpful! Big fan of yours from India!
This has been very helpful, Thank You
Nice method! Gonna try it next time I take notes. Great job on the video too!
Glad you liked the video! Let me know how you get on with the method 🤗🤗
Just wanted to thank you for the revision tip videos, they'll be helpful in preparation for my GCSEs in 5 months
Thank you so much for this comment Keplar! Best of luck in your GCSEs and I hope I can help you as you move towards them 🤗
@@liam.porritt Wow. You've really been working hard on RUclips and it shows, congrats on 70k subs.
Thanks bud! I'm in m final year of Law and most of our stuff has always been online. Your steps are a great reminder.
My biggest weakness is that when I'm grappling with something and spending a considerable amount of time on it, my brain tries to tell me that I'm wasting my time; that I could be utilising it studying something else. Alas, we have to soldier on! I believe that things do crystallise over time.
Yeh it’s a really tough balance to find, but I think my general opinion is that provided you don’t spend so long thinking about something that you tie yourself up going round and round, you should keep going until you feel you’re really getting to grips with the topic 🤗
Thank you! started my first week in law school and this will help a lot, and awesome accent!
Haha - glad you found helpful and good luck bud :)
Yes this is why I find online note taking is important 📝
thank you so much for this! i’m in my first year of law school so this will be very helpful to get good practice in condensing lecture notes
If you’re looking to avoid hunching over, it’s probably worth lifting that monitor up a bit higher - you could use a fancy box with storage underneath, or just a couple of old books. Great note tips, thank you!
Thanks a lot for your video, it's exactly what I looked for.
Glad it was helpful!
Perfect advice for a healthy human being
Thank you so much. This was helpful
As someone who is heading into university, all this advice has been very helpful! I am sorely in need of a new note-taking system, and can’t wait to try this out.
Just a quick question. When you took handwritten notes for your Cambridge In-Person lectures, did you type those up after class as well? Or did you just leave them as handwritten notes?
I love the details. Thanks
Our profs don’t give us the lecture notes ): what you get in lecture is what you get
That's evil
Holy crap your videos are high quality
8:15 if you're tight on time
Cool video thanks, can see how the number/colour linking could be really helpful. Wish I had online lectures...
Hey Nathan! Yup- online lectures are amazing! Yeh that is probably my biggest tip to take away from this video 🤗🤗
I love your videos bro please make more videos like this one ❤️❤️😭
Don't care much about note taking but I love how you give time to your family
For a moment I was scared why you were spinning children so fast but I realised it was fast motion
hey! I was just wondering how you go about editing your videos! Love your editing style, keep up the awesome work!
your set up it great! but i would recommend you get a stand for your monitor so that the screen is inline with your eyes to prevent neck pain.
Hi! I just came from your video about "Are Real-Life Lawyers like Harvey Specter?" (which was an amazing video by the way!), and absolutely love all your content (I may have binge-watched a few videos) and feel really inspired and motivated.
I have my IB exams in May and although I received conditional offers, I was feeling a bit unmotivated, but this made me realize the goal I've striving towards. Thanks so much and I hope you have a great day!!
Greetings from Japan :))
Hey Karen! Thank you so so much - this is one of those special comments that RUclipsrs dream of getting, so really thank you! Always appreciative of a binge watch and I wish you the best of luck with your IB exams - time to get motivated again!! Let’s do this! 💪💪
Before the lecture:
• Skim through lecture presentation/notes
• Build topic skeleton (Headings, subheadings)
During the lecture:
• Note down important bits only in bullet point form write them under the headings.
After lecture:
• Note down bold keywords for easy identification of sections of notes.
• Number links between your notes and lecture notes. May be useful for essays later.
• GRAPPLE with areas of notes/topic until you can explain to a 5 year old. May take hours. -> Maybe draw things out to conceptualise
• Application
Which monitor did you buy and do you normally just connect it to your MacBook ?
Hi there, can you please link your computer monitor? Would be a great help as I am currently in search of a relatively cheap one that's curved, so essentially exactly what you have!
Hi, great video! May I ask, what note-taking software are you using?
Hii! Loving your videos. Can you please help me how do you share your ipad screen on an android computer?
I’m here for him changing and only that
This was useful! Are you taking law gdl at Cambridge? If so do you know ibz mo?
What are your best tips when it comes to memorizing/understanding difficult concepts?
How did you get your macbook pro onto 2 monitors? I have a mabook air now and in my first year of law school and I think it would help a lot if i could have 2 monitors to work on: one for the lecture slides and one for the notes!
everyone shall be healthy and well forever!
Love the video! I didnt know intermittent fasting was a thing until recently. Turns out I've been doing it for a while with dinner being the only thing I eat most the time lol
Liam please pleaase clarify, do you have separate reading notes, lecture notes and review notes? Wouldn’t that be to much to handle? I’m really struggling in managing my notes.
The linking method that you use can be redone properly using what is so called as roam research or obsidian
Do you have any tips for hand written notes or should I scratch them and just do them online
Oh yeah dude! We need to use more the technology around us more for benefit, also the part that you explain the things for yourself I make that everytime I want to learn something. Nice vídeo.
Can we have a hand out of the method ur using for taking notes? Im a law student too
U will be the best lawyer in UK
Hehehe - thank you :p
Please can you make steps on writing a position letter
Please answer how did I you connect your monitor to start working without a pc or something like that
This man reminded me to brush my teeth
Do you memorize from your computer outlines?
i really wanna take law but in my country, law could only be studied in the official language which i SUCK at. I love these vibes!
Perhaps study abroad?
Bro can you put a video like how you take notes
Hey Liam could you make video on how to remember sections in law
Ummm, for that kind of thing, it really is just repetitions over time! Have a look at my video on spaced repetition maybe :)
ruclips.net/video/DNadmXWEYFw/видео.html
Hi Liam, how often do you have to go into uni doing the LPC at BPP and how much of it is remote learning? Thanks
Hey Sonia! So this was just some prereading and introductory lectures, and I actually only start the LPC tomorrow! But I think the LPC is pretty contact-time heavy relative to the GDL, which is easier to do remotely! 🤗
Just realised I also forgot to say that it depends if you do accelerated or normal! Accelerated is more intense and that’s what I’m doing, so will be in 4 or 5 times a week, but the normal is less (I think maybe 3 days a week)! 😁
What do you do to memorize all of your notes?
Can you please include the link to where you got your monitor?
www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-C24F390-24-Inch-Curved-Monitor/dp/B01BCF06LE/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=samsung+curved+monitor&qid=1588832824&sprefix=samsung+curved&sr=8-1
Hello Liam, I want to improve and learn Legal English. I live in Turkey but there is not anywhere I can learn legal English. Is there any online course do you advice to me? Also If the coronavirus ends also I’m thinking about take a course in UK (like Cambridge law studio or other courses.) but I don’t have any idea which school is good for me in this scenario. I’m waiting your advice thanks. Also sorry my English :)
The school is really dependent on you, and what job you want to do.
Hey! What platform do you use to take notes? or does anyone know?
how do you distinguish what topic you want to further expand on?
You are so adorable!
Me and you have the goddamn same exact side profile this shit crazy
Hi! Could you link the monitor?
Hey Liam coukd you please give the png or jpg image for the notebook icon for the folders ? I am newbie witht he mbp M1 ( 512gb/8gb)
I've never see anybody more patriotic than you.
I'm struggling with taking notes for the relevant case law. Rn I'm doing Contract Law, but the annoying part is constantly summarising the case and putting it under my relevant sections. I'm fine with doing this, but it sometimes creates this issue of constantly seeing cases reappear for sections that relate to eachother, how do you take notes efficiently for the cases reappearing? Do you simply copy and paste them under every section required for them?
Just copy and paste the case name. You don’t need the entire summary each time the case relates to a section in your notes. Unless a different tiara of the case relates to that particular section in which case, I normally copy & paste the case name (just the ‘name v name’ no date etc as you’ve already got the full case summarised, no need to continue repeating it in full ), and one word for the topic you are relating it to.
damn i need your level of organization :P
Yassss
I wish you a happy new year! :)
Happy New Year to you too!! 🤗
Thank you.
Hello, can u please tell me your typing speed???
You look like the Liverpool player robertson
Nice
Me: already got three degrees in engineering and a MBA.
Also me: why the fuck RUclips suggest me an how to study video?
BTW, well done! Interesting video! all the best ;-)
I would just like also recommend learning to do the mind palace technique.
It's used by a lot of memory athletes
The what?
@@missfarry3222 the mind palace.
It's a memory technique where you imagine somewhere you know really well (like your living room) and put images around the room to help you remember them.
If I wanted to remember to go to Paddington station at 12 o clock I'd imagine 12 Paddington bears training for a run.
If recommend vidéos on it by Nelson Dellis or Yanga (I don't remember her last name)
@@jessoyesso9758 thank you, I'll try😊
I am currently studying business and corporate law...
What is your course name please mansion
Check out Notion for your note-taking. Miles better than OneNote!
Yeh - I know Ali Abdaal is a big fan but I've never quite got fully committed to Notion, although I've tried it out a couple of times and since filming this I've actually gone back to using Microsoft word for the ease of creating notes I can format nicely and then print to study from in hard copy, which is how I like to memorise. Maybe I'll give Notion another try some time though 😋
I would like to know what model of headphones you're wearing in here [4:00]
how in the world do u read 30 pages of notes in "10 - 15min"??
One Note is great, but making notes in it doesn't let you actual print them properly.
What are you doing about this then?
sorry but what keyboard and mouse are those?
I have the same question!
No I Don't Think I Will
👌👏👏👏
can i please also have your notes??
👍✌

These methods will not work with psychological issues such as insecurity... In learning something you can amass knowledge... But when it comes to insecurity amassing knowledge will not help. Knowledge is insecurity as it is ignorant of everything other than itself.
These are just notes to myself from looking at society and seeing what people are doing in society to become psychologically secure. Not intended as a criticism of anyone in particular... Just a look at society and seeing what's going on. It just happens that your videos popped up on RUclips... RUclips will soon enough suggest something else :)
You look like Morrissey from the Smiths
Ur cute 💙💙😍
Hehe- thanks 😂
A wee dose of P R O C R A S T I N A T I O N
hahhahha down it fresherrrrrr
Hey bro can you send pdf notes to my mail?
Bro you ain't fooling anyone... that was clearly bitesize shredded wheat.
I thought this video was going to be about study tips and tricks, but what I got was a 'days of our lives' soapy, WTF ?
