Posted by Orin Kerr: Getting to Maybe: A [1]commenter in a prior post asks if I would consider posting online an essay I wrote for first-year law students on how to take law school exams. I'm not entirely comfortable with doing so, in part because I suspect much of the advice is particular to my class and how I grade exams. But I do have a book to recommend: [2]Getting to Maybe, by Richard Michael Fischl and Jeremy Paul. It's not a cure-all, of course, but I think it does explain the basic picture of what law school exams try to test and what students should be trying to achieve in their answers.
