So, you want to go to law school. Now what? Until now, the process of applying to and succeeding in law school has been largely shrouded in mystery and mythos. Many would-be lawyers find themselves flying by the seats of their pants, trying to keep up in this strange and stressful new world. In this highly-competitive environment, where falling behind can not only cost you a grade but your entire career, the spoils go not to the most intelligent, but to the most prepared. That's where this book comes in. With dry wit and refreshing directness. Thomas E. Ladegaard, Esq., California-based civil litigator and founder of Ladegaard Law, demystifies the entire law school experience for prospective and current students.

If you're a current law student or considering law as a career path, this book is an absolute must-read.
