Summary: A must-read for prospective law students.
Review: I came across this book by accident while looking though the law school section of a boookstore. This book is truly the most insightful law school-related book that I have read. Miller and the other contributers walk the reader though the entire law school process, from "thinking about law school" to the completion of the bar exam. Although this is technically a "how-to" book, the conversational tone makes it truly appealing. The contributions of the "mentors" definitely sets this book apart from the rest. These individuals have attended law schools across the country, so they are able to make unique (as opposed to one-sided or redundant) contributions. I'll conclude by saying that I am glad that I found this book BEFORE law school!

Summary: Not for everyone
Review: This book is a good source of information if you are overly concerned with where you will be employed after law school. If you are intent on simply becoming an attorney, then this book is still useful, albeit in a different way. If you identify in the former category, this book will give you good information about how to be first in your class, get the "right" internships, and how to best go about securing the best jobs following graduation. If you are the type of person more concerned with learning the law and wanting to get a good idea of what to expect, and what to focus on while attending law school, then this book is also a good source.

Summary: Excellent information...
Review: Planning to attend law school this spring, I picked this book up on a whim... It's turned out to provide some great information, some that has been backed up by others that I've talked to who are currently going through 1L hell. I look forward to applying the principles of the book in my law school career..

Summary: A great place to start for prospective law students
Review: This book covers all the bases, advising how and when to undertake each portion of the law school admissions process. It has interesting bits of advice from recent graduates of first tier schools, and also offers a good honest look at what law school will really be like once you get in. Best of all, though, is the way it slows readers down and guides them through the important questions they need to ask themselves in order to know if they ought to apply to law school.

Summary: will be priceless for the entering student
Review: I recently graduated from law school, and I did lots of things wrong during my first year. I wish I had read this book. It tells you things that you really don't learn on your own until it is too late. The advice is straightforward--you must outline, for example--and accurate. The one place I disagree with the authors is in the length of the outlines they suggest. I think a 3 hour class can be handled in 30 or so pages (they say more like 60), a 4 hr. class in 40 pages or so. That is what ended up working for me quite well anyway, after the first year. Otherwise, I think they are right on. Also, I would advise doing your outlining on a computer, even if you have to go to the library. Nobody else seems to talk about that. Get this book, or one like it.

Summary: Great Book!!
Review: Of all the pre-law books I've seen, this definitely the best. Most importantly, the book is easy to read and keeps your attention. Also, Robert Miller's straigh-forward, no-bull, approach to describing law school is very valuable in deciding whether or not law school is the right decision. I refer to this book frequently and know I will continue to do so as I begin law school. The study approaches outlined in this book are easy to understand and I believe will be very helpful. It's great to have the insight of recent grads.

Summary: This book is an excellent resource for law students.
Review: I was looking to buy a book that explained the law school experience. I read the reviews of many books on the subject, and by far, LAW SCHOOL CONFIDENTIAL came out on top. But nothing could prepare me for the book itself. I am starting my law school career later in life, having worked for many years as an accountant. I am a CPA with a master's degree in taxation, so I wanted to make sure law school was a wise choice for me. This book was helpful, insightful, funny, often intimidating and very poignant. It is a complete guidebook from A to Z. Author Robert Miller suggests you read the book from cover to cover, and then read the sections again when they apply to you (for example, what you should be doing during the summer of your second year of law school). This book starts from simply thinking about law school, includes preparing for the LSAT, applying to law schools, surviving the first semester, and gives step-by-step hints (or what to expect) at each stage of law school, right up until the bar exam. There is a section on how to use the book, which can be used to quickly find a chapter once you've read the book. Not only does Miller use his own wisdom and experience, he uses the assistance of several other recent law school graduates, all with different backgrounds, reasons for going to law school, and career paths. Many of the insights are very candid; some of the lawyers would not do it again if they knew about the experiences in law school. I've always been an avid reader. I bought this book for some helpful information, but I never realized that this would be so gripping. I couldn't wait to come home after work to finish reading it. It reads like a good novel. If you are thinking about law school, or love someone who is, then buy this book! You won't regret it.

Summary: It Saved My Life
Review: If I had not read this book I would not have known what to expect, what to ask for, and how to spend my summer preparing for the challenge that lay ahead. I would require this book for anyone going into law school. It makes the almost impossible task ahead of you seem managable. READ IT NOW, DON'T WAIT.
