Advice
Stay on top of your reading assignments. It is nearly impossible to catch up if you fall behind.
Favorite Professor
The civil procedure courses in law school can be some of the most difficult material to take in over two semesters. Professor Richman's teaching method lays out an outline of the courses that makes it much easier to learn in such little time.
On Studying
I study exclusively at the library during the semester. It forces me to get away from distractions that I would have elsewhere. During finals, I join together with a few others and we find an unoccupied classroom to study in so we can view our collective thoughts on a board.
