Book Reviews of Law School Confidential (Revised Edition): A Complete Guide to the Law School Experience: By Students, for Students

Book Review: Hilarious!
Summary: 1 Stars

This is quite the hilarious take on law school. Like a fool, I read this before attending school and let me tell you - not even half of the things in here are true. I can only assume that the author attended a caricature of a law school because I assure you, there are only shreds a truth within the book.

My favorite part of the book is when the author tells you to be sure to have a passport ready, because you never know when the law firm you're clerking for will send you abroad to do something for them.

Listen, this book is useless. Honestly, if you are relying upon it for tips to get through law school, you should probably consider a different path, because you will be sorely disappointed. Do yourself a favor and find a decent law student blog or message board and read up.

Summary of Law School Confidential (Revised Edition): A Complete Guide to the Law School Experience: By Students, for Students

Law School Confidential is written for students about to embark on this three-year odyssey by students who have successfully survived. It demystifies the life-altering thrill ride that defines an American legal education by providing a comprehensive, blow-by-blow, chronological account of what to expect. It arms students with a thorough overview of the contemporary law school experience. This isn't the advice of graying professors or battle-scarred practitioners decades removed from law school. Miller has assembled a panel of recent graduates to act as "mentors", all of whom are perfectly positioned to shed light on what law school is like today. From taking the LSAT, to securing financial aid, to navigating the notorious first semester, to taking exams, to applying for summer internships, to getting on the law review, to tackling the bar and beyond...this book explains it all.
