This book distills the unwritten expectations of first-year law school into one hundred practical rules covering everything from case briefing and exam strategy to classroom dynamics and mental health. Drawing on the perspectives of a law professor and a former student, it offers first-generation and non-traditional students in particular a clear roadmap through the disorientation of 1L year. The authors frame law school not just as a subject to learn, but as a distinct skill set and way of thinking that students can master with the right guidance.
