You will be very pleased that you read this superb law school primer, and feel that you have a 'leg up' as you embark on a very challenging but rewarding adventure.-- Barry P. McDonald, Straus Research Professor of Law, Pepperdine University School of LawI had always assumed that applying to law school would be largely similar to the university application process, but as I begin to consider applying to law school, I cannot help but feel overwhelmed by the vast amount of mostly useless information out there. Articles online are either not relevant or too specific, and limited workshops fail to be broad enough in scope to address my needs Teresa Power's The ABCs of Law School is the only resource I've found that provides a truly comprehensive picture of law school... To say that this book gives me a competitive advantage would be an understatement at best, and, at worst, a monumental overlooking of Teresa's sharp prose, deft organization, and years of honest experience. Whether you are merely considering law school, currently working on applications, or already in your first year, there is no better resource for prospective law students than The ABCs of Law School. If I make it through these next three years, I'll know exactly who to thank. -- Kenneth Schrupp, University of California, San Diego, Class of 2020Genuinely honest and insightful, Teresa Power's The ABCs of Law School is a must read for anyone navigating the murky waters of 1L. Move aside daunting treatises and classroom intimidation, the ABCs straightforward approach to breaking down the law through detailed outlines will make your 1L experience a breeze and classmates enviable! --Taylor Magnuson, 2L at UC Berkeley School of Law
