What exam strategies do you use in law school?
As a law student, my exam strategy is studying b4 d exam....focusing more on the output than d input. Thanks 4 this session Professor
Your channel

I am not in law school, but I have been reading caselaw that is avalible to the public to practice picking out the issue and the rule.
Thank you another wonderful video

Excellent video.

Good for him getting an A! with such a small school and hardcore curve at NIU (2.7-2.9!) that is great. I know my school is 3.1-3.2 for 1st year.

this guy is cool as hell
Am learning more a about the law on its
Great interview...my takeaway is that you get out what you put in. An obviously intelligent student invests one hour a night studying and nets a middle of the road results. I guess a good kick in the butt with an average grade lit the fire to quadruple his input netting an output of top student. I wonder if he would have put in the extra effort if he got a B on the midterm. I am always surprised to see students who put in minimal effort in a post graduate program and wash out instead of putting every available moment into it for 3 years to maximize his potential for a lifetime of success. Sounds like Salim figured it out before it was too late!
I've seen too many students just give up, believing they are failures. One of my students quit law school right after receiving her midterm grades. Sad.
@Dr. D is that better Dr. D?
@@Learnlawbetter that is a shame!
What happened with your eye sir?
sir my question is that how about my age im 48 year old already .but im very interesting to pursue my law career .does this age can not hamper or can adapt those subject or kind of learning in law achool
I am struggling with the concept in rem / in personam jurisdiction - do you mind explaining it? Or do you know of some resources that can help clarify it?
Both deal with ways that a court asserts its jurisdiction over a person. In personam is when the court has the authority, or jurisdiction, to hear a case against a person. In rem is when the court has the power over property.
I am there's learning more
Hello Professor, if we wish to work a job while attending law school, do you recommend part time law school? Or do you think full time is the best way to invest in law school? Also, I think this is a very realistic/helpful interview for aspiring law students.
If you plan to work then you need to do part time law school. Students who attempt to work in a full time program tend to fail.
Learn Law Better can you please make a video on best part time law schools? And some advice on part time law school. Thank you 😊
What about online classes due to covid
Questions:::::: how much do a lawyer as well, its where I want to be at learning a about of law
Sir, my question is related to law in general. Sir, I am currently giving an exam in which I am going to give paper of the subject International Law. I am not a law student so, I wanted to ask you that kindly suggest me a book on international law which I can read and will help me in this regard. I have read "Elements of style" and "Miracle at philadelphia" at your suggestion in one of your video. So kindly guide me here too. I shall be very thankful to you.
Regards
There are several study aid series that might be of use. West Academic produces a “nutshell” series and Carolina Academic Press has the “Understanding” series.
I’m starting my journey soon any suggestions?
The goal is to do well on your exams. This means understanding what law school exams are like, and then preparing for them. They are very different from exams you've had in the past.
How to choose specialisation in masters?
You mean for an LLM? Usually only a tax LLM is worth the time and expense. Good luck!
@@aalegalfocusyes I m asking abt llm.Tax is good.Thank u.
I just found your channel the other day and im learning alot but i need ro ask a stupid question, hypotheticaly if someone were to be smart enough could they become a lawyer without going to law school and just teach themselves with the internet?
Not in the United States. In almost every State, you must first earn a bachelor's degree and then the JD. However, a few State, like California and Virginia, allow you to apprentice with a lawyer and then take the bar exam. But on your own is not an option.
@@Learnlawbetter Im in canada actually does that change anything?
Professor, is it possible to sleep eight hours a day as a law student?
Yes, and you should. It is a mistake to cut back on sleep. Just make sure to use your time wisely.
Where did u teach
This was at Northern Illinois University, though now I am at the University of Idaho.
Any advice for a 14 year old that wants to become a lawyer?
@@enzoowen2182 see if any attorneys near you will allow you to intern or talk with you about what it's like to practice law. Best wishes!
