Thriving in Law School, Surviving Legal
Practice
Essays:
- Preparing for Law School See also NILE, below.
- Note that Planet Law School is an updated approach very similar to the one I suggested in the 1980s. The author obviously knows of things I do not and has resources he suggests that I did not even dream of. A good book.
- Alternatives To Law School
- Dear Family of the New Law Student
- Letter to Young Law Student (Professor Corinne Cooper -- intentionally plays on the the Rilke title but is written to all new students regardless of their ages).
- Externships
- Everything your placement office should have told you the moment you weren't in the top 10%.
- Everything you need to know if your career has fallen apart.
- Time Sheet Approach for Survival: Number One
- Dear Family of the New Lawyer
- Limits on the Legal Profession
- Real Reform of Law, Law School and the Legal Profession

- NILE (National Institute for Legal Education) at http://www.nilelaw.org/ provides a "prep school" for law school. See also Law PReview to compare -- prep schools for law schools are finally a growth area. Your mileage may vary. www.barbri-nile.com has their materials to help you do well once you are in law school.
- Note that the web is always growing: a great new link: http://lawpreview.com/atticus.html -- good advice, with much more depth than I have here.

- http://www.powerscore.com -- LSAT preparation class. Should you have to choose between Powerscore and Princeton, take them both (I wish I had).
- http://www.getprepped.com -- another LSAT prep company doing much of their class work in law schools and universities. Links section.
- TestMasters -- This group is number one in LSAT prep for California -- with good reason. It has spread to other parts of the country.

must take a review class for the LSAT and this is a great site.
- Not being able to take a review class is the only thing I regret.
- Princeton Review rates law schools and does it very well.
