Now that 1L year is coming to a close, the ASP would like to
first <b>CONGRATULATE YOU</b> for
completing your 1L year. Now that
you’re done, you first need to do one thing: <span style="font-size: 16.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">RELAX. </span>After
you’ve had the chance to wind down completely, it’s time to start thinking
about what you should do this summer.</div>

<span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">According
to the distribution rules, for any given <b>first year course</b> a professor
may assign a grade of 3.6 or higher to no more than 10% of the class. For
example, if a Torts class consists of 100 students no more than 10 students
will receive an A as their final grade. Keep in mind that with the distribution
rules for first year courses, a professor does not have to assign any A’s at
all (the interval is <b>0</b>-10%). An upper level course of 100 students,
however, will reward at least 15 (but no more than 30) students a grade of 3.6
or higher (assuming the course has more than 21 students). It is very important
to understand that the number of students in a class will affect the
distribution. Also please be aware that within the distribution exist <b>two
additional distributions </b>(highlighted above in the illustration). A
professor can only assign a certain number of A and B grades (as well as D and
F grades): no less than 15 but no more than 30% of a first year course and no
less than 50 but no more than 70% of an upper level course (with 21 or more
students). Because of this additional distribution, a professor of a first year
course cannot assign 10 A’s and 25 B’s; although they fall within their
individual ranges, they do not meet the additional distribution. </span></span></div>

Or rather: just how long can I </i><i>put off outlining? </i><br />
<br />
Your average law student will tell you they started outlining in October or November and that they struggled to finish and comprehend their outlines before Final Exams. This is because outlining should be an on-going process. The moment an issue or cause of action is completed in class, you should be able to outline it. This means <b style="color: red;">THE TIME TO START OUTLINING IS <span style="font-size: x-large;">NOW!</span></b><span style="color: red;"> </span><br />
<br />
<b>1L example:</b><br />
<br />
<u>Torts</u>: By now you should have completed your class time for battery. You know the rule statement for battery and the elements of battery. That means you should be able to start your outline. <br />
<br />
<u>Property</u>: Property usually starts with Finder's Rights. If you've completed this concept, you should be able to outline.<br />
<br />
<u>Civil Procedure</u>: You should be wrapping up Subject Matter Jurisdiction and possibly Supplemental Jurisdiction. That means you know the cases you need to know for the exam, the elements of both types of SMJ (Federal Question and Diversity), and can outline.<br />
<br />
<b>2L example:</b><br />
<br />
<u>ConLaw</u>: By now you should have completed Judicial Review and possible Justiciability. Outline those concepts!<br />
<br />
<u>CrimPro</u>: While you haven't finished the 4th Amendment readings yet, you probably have completed what "reasonable expectation of privacy" means. You can starting outlining this concept.<br />
<br />
<u>Evidence</u>: By now your class should have completed Logical and Legal Relevance--this means you can outline both concepts!<br />
<br />
Give outlining a try, and if you have questions come in to our office hours or email ASP with questions and your outline attached and we'll take a look at it for you! Once you've got an issue outlined you can then start taking <b>practice exams</b> (more on this later).<br />
<br />
<div style="color: lime;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Good luck!</b></span></div>

For One-Ls, almost all of your classes were year long. This means there is added pressure to either improve or stay at the top of the class. With this increasing pressure it is vital to go into exam-prep mode with an "attack plan." You know your learning style and strengths best, but here are some tips to make a successful attack plan:<br />
<br />
<ul><li><strong><u><span style="color: blue;">Test Prep:</span></u></strong></li>
<ul><li><strong><em><span style="background-color: lime;">Apply the "Study Cycle" to Exam Prep</span></em></strong>-just like during the normal parts of the year, you should be utilizing the law school study cycle. The law school study cycle normally consists of: prep for class/take notes in class, review class notes, update outlines, take exams, adjust outline accordingly. The exam version of this cycle will be slightly condensed after your reading assignments are complete: </li>
</ul></ul><ol><li><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="background-color: yellow;"><strong>Consult Notes/Update Outline</strong>-</span></span>by now your outline should be mostly updated. Close to exams you should be fine-tuning it by going through your class notes to add any insights your professor gave during class, or add examples or tips to help you write an exam.</li>
<li><strong><span style="background-color: yellow; color: #351c75;">Take Practice Exams and Assess</span></strong>-toward the beginning of exam prep it's okay to do practce exams with the outline in front of you. By the week before exams you should stop using the outline to ensure you've retained the information. Once you have completed a practice exam, review the model answer. Take note of any rules you had wrong, any organizational structure you were off on, or where your analysis was off. </li>
<li><strong><span style="background-color: yellow; color: #351c75;">Adjust Outline</span></strong>-based on your self assessment, go back and change your outline. This is as simple as hand-writing the fix on the already printed page or editing it on the computer.</li>
<li><strong><span style="background-color: yellow; color: #351c75;">Go Back to Step 1</span></strong>-By the time you've done a few practice exams, your outline should be very comprehensive and your performance on the exams should improve!</li>
</ol><ul><ul><li><strong><em><span style="background-color: lime;">Print out your outline for Professor/TA Review Sessions</span></em>-</strong>Having an updated, close to complete outline when walking into a review session will make you that much more calm. That way you can actually listen to the review and make small edits or changes to your organization. Another tip for review sessions is to highlight or mark places on your outlines where you have questions. That way, when the reviewer gets to that topic you will be reminded to raise your hand to get the clarification you need.</li>
</ul></ul><br />
<ul><li><strong><u><span style="color: blue;">Test Day:</span></u></strong></li>
<ul><li><span style="background-color: lime;"><strong><em>Be Confident</em></strong>-</span>Ideally, walking into an exam you should be relaxed and ready for whatever issues the professor throws at you. In reality you will most likely be stressed out and nervous but since it's expected it shouldn't throw you. Combat those nerves with the knowledge that you've studied hard, taken several practice exams, and are prepared.</li>
<li><strong><span style="background-color: lime;"><em>Outline </em>before <em>writing</em></span></strong>-several students will not listen to this advice and will immediately start writing. Don't let this freak you out! In your head you will believe that what they're writing is pure gold. In reality the people writing are just as nervous as you are and are making the mistake of not organizing their thoughts before answering the question. Take 25% of the time alotted to outline. Put your issues in order, include the facts you plan to use, and make sure you aren't missing any issues before you begin typing!</li>
<li><strong><em><span style="background-color: lime;">If you know you're running out of time outline the rest</span></em></strong>-odds are there will be an exam you don't finish. Certain subjects have exams that are known as "race horse" exams. You usually are not expected to finish writing a thorough analysis on 20-30 issues in an hour and a half. However, you ARE expected to spot all of the issues. This means that when you realize you won't finish, at the 5 minute call, outline the rest of the issues. If you have time throw in the rule statements and a few facts so your professor knows that you spotted the issue and that you recognized the facts that triggered the issue.</li>
<li><span style="color: black;"><span style="background-color: lime;"><strong><em>Avoid discussing the exam after the fact</em></strong>-</span></span>for your own sanity please resist the urge to discuss the exam immediately after it's over. This leads to unneeded stress. What's done is done at that point. You can't change anything. If you're the person that messed up then you'll feel terrible. If you're the person telling everyone how great you did you'll come off smug. Either role is not good, so just don't do it!</li>
</ul></ul><br />
<ul><li><strong><u><span style="color: blue;">After your last exam:</span></u></strong></li>
<ul><li><strong><em>Enjoy summer!</em></strong>-unless you plan on getting your LLM, the years you have in law school will be the last time you can enjoy "summer break." <em>CHERISH THIS TIME.</em> You never get to enjoy being young (or young at heart) with ample amounts of free time in the summer ever again. Decompress and enjoy! Even if you're taking summer school or interning, your schedule will be much lighter than during the fall and spring semesters.</li>

These preferences are about the ways a person wants to take-in and give-out information. A learning style influences how you understand and process information best.

Many people struggle through the first year and that's normal. That's what's expected--it's kind of the entire point of 1L year. The best analogy I can think of is it's like you are learning to swim and your swim instructor throws you in the deep end and just tells you to swim. You're expected to figure out how to do it yourself--with an occasional guiding hand provided by your professors and ASP. 2L Kristi McCart describes the moment when she figured out how she needed to approach law school to be successful:</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: blue; margin-bottom: 12pt;"> Law School Doesn't Click for Everyone. <br />

A few fortunate students understand law school and how to take tests the first day of classes. A couple more students understand after their first or second round of exams. After a full-year of classes, some students still cannot grasp the concept of law school and how to succeed. I found myself in this group. While I got mediocre exam scores, I felt unprepared for most exams.<br />
<br />
I did not get my "Ah-ha!" moment until two weeks into my second year of law school. It was not until Professor Homer and the ASP Grad Fellows gave my Legal Methods class a learning test called VARK. VARK provides students with detailed learning approaches based on their specifc learning type. For the longest time, I thought I learned best visually; if it was written on the board or put in front on me, I would retain it. Based on VARK, I found I am a kinesthetic learner, meaning I learn best by doing: working through hypos and applying rule statements and issues to real-life problems. This discovery of my learning type made a world of difference. <br />
<br />
This second year, I better allocated my time from memorizing outlines to doing practice exams for each professor. Instead of waiting to do outlines one week before exams, I had outlines completed in advanced so I could focus on answering multiple hypos and re-writing practice exams. Because these approaches were better suited for my learning style, I was able to study more effectively and efficiently. <br />
<br />
Once a student knows how to study, they can start focusing on how to produce an "A" exam. During the first year, the Legal Writing professors constantly tell students, "When conducting your analysis, always state the legally significant facts plus why." Well, this sounds simple enough. In reality, it is simple once you master the skill, but it is difficult to master the skill when the only time it is practiced is on exams. Legal Methods provided a judgement-free, grade-free environment to perfect these skills. I found it was a lot easier to make mistakes during the learning process when my entire semester grade was not at stake.<br />
<br />
All in all, do not feel ashamed if your first year grades are not above-average. There is still time to do a self-assessment and find which approaches lead to your most effective and efficient studying. Contact the staff ASP and take advantage of the resources available now. You'll thank them in the end. Good luck in your law school endeavors. </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"> Thank you Kristi!

You probably went to law school because you have a strong Type-A personality; and your strong sense of self led you to believe that your personal study methods were and will always be fine and dandy. Many students, even after a semester or two of dissatisfaction with grades, are STILL reluctant to ask for help. This is why first years are encouraged to come to ASP from the get-go. This is also why students are encouraged (or sometimes required) to take Legal Methods I, a course designed to improve the law school skills we know you have. If you did not have those skills, you would not have been admitted. ASP is here to help you develop those skills. Here is Guest Blogger Erin Langdorf-McKinley's take on her experience with ASP and Legal Methods I:</span></div></div><div class="MsoPlainText" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: blue;">I have to say that at first, I was not thrilled to be in Legal Methods I. I figured I would just go and listen to what they have to say, but not try. I thought I did everything first year fine and they couldn’t help me. I was wrong. The extra practice of writing essays and taking multiple choice tests did help. The feedback on each essay told me something new and showed me where I needed to work harder. I learned that I needed to take it slower on MC and read the call of the question first and read every answer choice before I picked one.</span></span></div><div class="MsoPlainText" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />

First year, I did the majority of outlining during the couple days leading up to finals. I also studied in a study group of four the whole time; I studied from 9am to 10pm for three weeks straight. This method, I found out, was not helpful. I liked the study group aspect, but by the end of finals, I was wiped.</span></span></div></div><div class="MsoPlainText" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: blue;">During this last set of finals, I had finished all of my outlines a week before finals started. Instead of cramming long days for the whole time, I worked until about 5pm and then headed home, watched some of my television shows, went out a little, went to the gym. I didn’t stop my life for finals. Instead of a group of people, I studied with one person and did more practice exams. I felt a lot less stressed and more relaxed going in.</span></span></div></div><div class="MsoPlainText" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />

After Legal Methods I, my GPA for Fall 2011 went up significantly and my CGPA went up as well. I know that at first, some people (including myself) might be hurt or upset to be in Legal Methods I, but don’t fight it. It helps and the professors know what they are talking about.</span></div></div><div class="MsoPlainText" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />

Hopefully you don't judge ASP's taste in movies, however this song is particularly apt for the second semester "Back to School" time. You've likely done more relaxing and sleeping in than you ever have during a vacation for sheer need to catch up on the rest you lost during first semester. The hope was that you'd be reinvigorated and ready to take on second semester. The reality, honestly, is you're probably not even close to reinvigorated. You're anxious because not all of your grades are in, you're tired because you procrastinated on doing your winter reading and had to stay up late to catch up, and you're frustrated because no one (except your classmates) seems to understand the stress you're under. THIS IS PERFECTLY NORMAL! So how do you deal with this? Just like we discussed in Workshop #3 last semester, now is the time to assess your study plan from last semester and make a new schedule for yourself:<br />
<ul><li>Go buy a 2012 calendar to create your study schedule</li>
<li> Add your classes</li>
<li>Add in "me" time</li>
<ul><li>when you work-out, sleep-in, hang out with friends, etc.</li>
</ul><li>When you get your syllabi add-in when major assignments are due, and continue adding reading assignments</li>
<li>Add goals for when you want to start outlining </li>
</ul>Preparing a schedule for yourself sounds like a tedious task, especially when you consider the above list of things to add to it. However, keep perspective: YOU'VE ALREADY DONE THIS ONCE! You have an entire semester under your belt already so this is old hat. Now is the time to realize you've made it this far so you know you can do it! Were you a little tired sometimes?--Of course. Were you stressed out a lot?--Yeah. But at the end of the semester you sat for your exams and you came out of them alive and well in the end. So now is the time to think about what you can do to make things a little more manageable, make life a little more enjoyable during second semester: did you take the semester off from working out and during break realize you really missed it? Did you not allow yourself to EVER sleep in and crash toward the end of the semester? Did you miss occasionally hanging out with family or friends? If so, it's time to include that in your "me" time because you're in law school for YOU. That means you should understand that yes, <i>law school is difficult</i>, but not so difficult that all happiness and enjoyment in life should be sacrificed.<br />
<br />
Make this semester an enjoyable one for you outside of school and you might enjoy law school that much more too.Heather Gutterudhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10176216256128420953noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036919088328719658.post-70605537359260666342011-12-13T13:52:00.002-08:002011-12-13T13:52:52.031-08:00Dun Dun Dun!

<br />
<br />
<br />
<table bgcolor="#ffffcc" border="1" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0"><tbody>
<tr> <td> <h2>DO...</h2><ul><li>Do pay attention to the <i>call of the question</i>. </li>
<li>Do <i>pre-write outline</i> your answer using about 15% of the time provided. </li>
<li>Do use your pre-write outline to identify "<i>hot issues</i>" in the facts</li>
<li>Do focus on the <i>analysis</i> of issues. </li>
<li>Do <i>mention every issue</i> <i>or element of an issue </i>even if you conclude it's not likely to be met--just explain WHY it's not. </li>
<li>Do use every <i>key fact </i>in your analysis. </li>
<li>Do explain <i>why</i> the key facts matter or apply to the <i>buzz words</i> of the rule. </li>
<li>Do leave your <i>biases at home </i>sometimes you will be forced to side for the "bad guy"</li>
<li>Do <i>issue spot</i> and jot down the rule for <b>every</b> issue you spot on the exam if you run out of time to write-out the last few issues</li>
</ul><h4><span style="font-size: large;">DON'T...</span></h4><ul><li>Don't restate the facts of the problem. </li>
<li>Don't answer questions the professor doesn't ask about. </li>
<li>Don't waste time on your outline making it look pretty. You don't get credit for an outline. </li>
<li>Don't spot issues that are not suggested by the facts just because you studied it in class.</li>
<li>Don't analyze elements already established in the facts--ex: if the facts state the contract was valid, don't analyze whether the contract was valid. </li>
</ul></td></tr>

This is probably the most anxious you have felt since law school started and for good reason--midterms are your first opportunity to prove you know what you're doing. Most One-Ls walk around with a big question mark hovering over their heads for the first six weeks of school because nothing is clear. The first six weeks are full of questions. Questions like:<br />
<ul><li>"Am I getting this, or do I just <i>think</i> I get it?"</li>
<li>"How do I even go about studying?"</li>
<li>"Am I following what's happening in class?"</li>
<li>"You mean my professor expects me to memorize ALL of these rules?" and</li>
<li>"How do I even go about applying these rules?"</li>
</ul> These are all questions that students anxiously dwell on. However, midterms are a good way to gauge how well you actually DO understand the material. Midterms provide answers to all of the questions above and more. Midterms force you to study, to outline, to go over your class notes, and hopefully take some practice tests. By the time your midterm comes you should know, or at least have a good idea, about how much of each subject you "get" and what you need to work on.<br />
<br />
By now, you should have an outline ready (or almost) to start taking practice exams. The ASP office has practice exams (with answers!) on file for you. All you have to do is email or come in to office hours and ask for them. Also, the ASP office is more than willing to look over your outlines, practice exam answers, or just field any question you may have about midterms.<br />
<br />
You can email any of us to ask for practice exams and our office hours are as follows:<br />

You survived the first week of law school. What should you be spending your first weekend doing? Celebrating? Studying? Trying to see if you can still transfer to an M.B.A. program . . .? First and foremost, take a moment to take a deep breath and realize that you made it through the first week, only 16 more to go until Winter Break! Law school is about pacing yourself, so take pride in the fact you have one full week under your belt.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">In ASP we recommend that you spend part of the weekend evaluating your performance during your first week of law school. Ask yourself the following questions: How did your reading go? Reading briefs will get easier the more you read, but are you having a hard time finding the rule of law in the brief? Are you confused by the procedural history? Ask yourself, how did your briefs work? If you had been called would you have been able to answer the professors questions using the briefs you prepared? What area of your brief do you need to work on?<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> Make sure to attend the ASP Workshop #1 next week to fine tune your briefing skills. </b>Identifying the areas you need improvement this weekend will help you pinpoint what to focus on during the workshop. Law school is all about self-assessment and identifying how you can best learn, comprehend, and analyze the law.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">We also recommend that you make a study plan or review your current study plan. Make a calendar that breaks up the week, day by day, hour by hour. Include your classes, your commute time, any jobs, family or religious commitments, workout time, etc. This should leave you with a clear view of the hours you have to devote towards reading, briefing, outlining, etc. As you probably are already realizing, you will spend more time reading some subjects than others. Pencil into your calendar when you plan to do reading and briefing for each subject. Realize that your study plan is not set in stone and needs to be constantly evaluated during the first semester. You will need to add in time for outlining, research projects, legal research papers, etc. in the near future. Start to think about where you may be able to plug these tasks into your current study plan.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">So, in addition to any studying your new study plan includes this weekend, remember that it’s important to RELAX and maybe even catch up on the sleep you missed over the week. </div>Heather Gutterudhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10176216256128420953noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036919088328719658.post-64711697669538273672011-08-24T16:08:00.001-07:002011-10-10T16:43:09.594-07:00Getting Past Orientation Anxiety<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;">I vividly remember my first year orientation. I got there five minutes late and it seemed like everyone already knew each other and had it all together.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;">I was convinced that for them, law school was going to be fine.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;">Meanwhile, I thought I was destined to have a failed law school experience and make no friends.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;">All because I was five minutes late.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;">By the first day of classes I had made a few friends, however, as luck would have it, they were transferred from Section A to Section C. I walked into Professor Cohen’s contracts class, chose a spot toward the back and sat by myself. Literally, there was no one on either side of me. I was the smelly kid. I was so intimidated by law school and the other students who I thought had it so much more together than I did. I was a loser. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;">For Halloween, our section threw a party celebrating one last hurrah before we locked ourselves away to outline before finals. (As ASP fellows we recommend you start outlining <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">before </i>Halloween—we learned this the hard way). At the party we were reminiscing about the beginning of the year and how nervous we had all felt but were too prideful to admit. A friend shared that he was completely intimidated by me because I had the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">nerve </i>to sit by myself. A few more people chimed in—they thought I was tough! In my head I had been a loser, everyone else, being in the anxious state that starting first year creates thought <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I </i>was the intimidating one.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;">My point in sharing this story is that everyone is anxious about starting first year. The important thing is to get through it as best you can. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;">Law School can be very time-consuming, but taking the time to getting involved and engaged in the law school community will help you with a sense of belonging on campus. By attending events at the law school you will have the opportunity to meet and get to know your fellow classmates outside of the classroom. Your fellow students can be a great system of support. They understand what you are currently going through and may even have some helpful tips and hints to share with you. Furthermore, your fellow students are your future colleagues in the legal community, so start developing these important relationships now.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times,'Times New Roman',serif;"> In addition, getting involved in student organizations gives you the opportunity to develop skills, enhance your academic program, explore different areas of the law, and contribute to the community all in a fun and social setting. Ultimately, as with most things in life, what you put into your law school experience will directly correlate with how much you get out of your law school experience. So dive right in and get involved!</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
