Description
Studying in law school is not one-size fits all. Each student learns in a different way. The key is to recognize the type of learner you are and use that information to optimize your study style - for YOU.
In this episode we talk bout:
The three main types of learning styles - Auditory, Visual and Kinesthetic
Whether learning styles even exist
How to figure out your learning preferences you are
Specific techniques for each learning style in law school
How to outline and what type of learner should (and shouldn't) utilize outlining
Why you should probably handwrite your outlines
The basics of attack plans, and why they're important (for everyone!)
Using checklists vs. roadmaps for your attack plans
Flowcharts, Flashcards, and Mnemonics and who can benefit from them
