Ok that's basically what I was planning on doing. Is there any point to putting relevant cases on there?Holly Golightly wrote:Yes, but it is essentially all of the take-away slides copy/pasted into an outline format.Flips88 wrote:anyone have an Nzelibe one?

Re: Northwestern Law Class of 2014
You probably don't need anything too specific about any cases but a basic fact/rule takeaway from the case could be helpful on the outline. On the exam the relevant restatement and UCC rules are going to be much more useful.Flips88 wrote:Ok that's basically what I was planning on doing.

Pretty sure that is wrong.

It's entirely possible that I was looking at the wrong thing...is that a recommendation for BA with Reed?bdubs wrote:Pretty sure that is wrong.

Re: Northwestern Law Class of 2014
I strongly recommend 14th with Hughes. Not so much because the class is great, but because of the reinforcement it provides for con law.

There is some overlap but depending on the views of your professor it may not "reinforce" your con law class.bjsesq wrote:I strongly recommend 14th with Hughes. Not so much because the class is great, but because of the reinforcement it provides for con law.

Re: Northwestern Law Class of 2014
Had Koehler for Evidence last year. Really like him. He is not a JD and does a bit more of a focus on practical (versus academic/theoretical) teaching. He will focus a bit on statistical evidence because that is his specialty. FYI, the final is not open book open note. You can bring one sheet of paper and he will provide you with a copy of the FREs.Flips88 wrote:Anybody take any of these electives for 1L and have recommendations for or against them:

Epstein, who is now at USC. I dunno, dude. I don't know of any prof who didn't cover EP and Substantive Due Process, so it's your world, I guess.Flips88 wrote:Who'd you have for ConLaw?bjsesq wrote:True.

Re: Northwestern Law Class of 2014
I absolutely LOVED 1st Amendment. It's an amazing class, all of the readings are incredibly interesting, and DeSanto is probably the best professor I've had in law school. I was happy I took it all semester, and even taking the exam wasn't all that painful. I outlined straight from my in-class notes and only had to study for it for like 1-2 days.
Downside: because DeSanto is so amazing and explains everything so well, the curve in this class is always going to be very tight. That said, I was still incredibly happy I took it.

Re: Northwestern Law Class of 2014
I'm thinking I'll aim to do 1st Amendment and Torts II with Shap-daddy. I read the CTEs for 1st Amendment and they were nothing but positive. Does the 6-9 class time ever feel like a drag?Holly Golightly wrote:I absolutely LOVED 1st Amendment.

Didn't want to think anymore about this whole electives thing so I'm putting my faith in BJS. Guess I better love me some strict scrutiny three days a week.

Well I think that one guy is going to wake up with 200 angry emails in his inbox and a couple administrators that want to talk him.
