Rating:
- One L
Great exploratory read for those interested in what the first year of law school is like at an prestigious institution. Accessible enough to imagine yourself in the everyday shoes of the writer. It helped me, to an extent, form decisions about where I chose to attend law school. Other recommendations available on Amazon:
"The Bramble Bush" by Karl Lewellyn
"The Paper Chase" by John Jay Osborn
