Editorial Reviews: As the Director of Suffolk University Law School s Academic Support Program, Ramy begins receiving phone calls from new 1Ls as early as May. Their common question? "What do I need to do to succeed in law school?" In writing Succeeding in Law School, Ramy answers that question. Ramy is well aware of the rigorous learning environment that law students face, so he designed each chapter (and its accompanying exercises) to be completed in a modest amount of time. The book incorporates examples, a few cases, hypotheticals, and exercises so that you can practice your new skills and measure your progress. Whether you are seeking advice in the summer months or are looking for help once the school year has begun, this book is an important tool for helping you get the most out of your abilities.

It cautions you about the workload and competition for grades without scaring you (which some books do) and it provides clear guidelines on how to get and stay organized and focused. I highly recommend this book.

"Succeeding in Law School" had addressed certain ideas and concepts that many of my classmates were hearing about for the first time. As the year progressed, and as my understanding of the law improved, I went back to the book on several occasions to reread sections. Each time I reread a portion of the book, I learned something new More Reviews
