The study focused on 5,000 exams from first-year law students. So this week, we’d like to ask you: In law school, did you find you received better scores on longer essay answers? If that was your experience and practice, do you think writing exams was bad practice for writing concise briefs later on? Answer in the comments. Read the answers to last week’s question: What do you do to stay organized and meet deadlines in your practice? Featured answer: Posted by OH_law: “MyCase calendar, MyCase Tasks for deadlines, and a paper calendar. This is something I struggle with often. I experiment with various options like WorkFlowy and ToDoist, both of which have strong security in place, but I try to keep things in one or two spots as much as possible. I’m looking forward to seeing the answers from others. Always seeking a more efficient method.” | In the MagazineFrom the September 2016 IssueWho's the pirate?
