Summary

"With this book, Professors Parrish and Knolton have given students the key to unlock the secrets to law school success. This book may well become for JD students what the Federalist Papers are for constitutional law scholars: an indispensable roadmap to navigate labyrinthine terrain."-Prof. Richard Albert, Poston College Law School

"There are profound insights in this invaluable wide; it belongs on the desk of every law school student."-Prof. Kristen boon, Scion Hall University School of Law

"As Parrish and Knolton make clear, there are no shortcuts to success in law school. Hard work is required every step of the way. But this book will help law students focus their efforts by working 'smart' along with working hard. I would recommend to every student beginning law school."-Prof. Noah Hall, Wayne State University Law School

"This is a great book, not only for law students, but for law professors seeking to re-learn some lessons of delivering a legal education. Most importantly, it sensibly (if crustily) speaks to expectations in the law classroom, an elusive baseline of behavior in all era of evolving classroom technologies, tightening job markets, and changing academic cultures. 'Whether the student of the professor agrees with the blunt advice in this book, this is as thought-provoking as a fun book like this can be."-Prof. Sin-Ling, Hsu, University of British Columbia Faculty of Law

"Professors Parrish and Knolton have managed to convey crucial advice to entering law students in a fun and straightforward way. Would-be law students should listen carefully to what their 'cranky law professor' has to say. They are unlikely to get all of this advice so succinctly explained in one convenient source once they enter law school."-Prof. Michael Waterstone, Loyola Law School Los Angeles

"Professors Parrish and Knolton have written a succinct guide to law school that students will find tremendously helpful and a lot of fun. Dispensing wisdom with a clever sense of humor, it entertains as it teaches and demystifies the law school experience.-Prof. Christopher Whytock, University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law
