I think E&E is fantastic, especially for Civ Pro.

I didn't particularly like most of the E&Es because I was turning to them to help organize my outlining, rather than explain concepts I didn't understand. However, the Civ Pro one, I agree, is particularly helpful. In one class section of Civ Pro that allowed open book exams (mine did not, unfortunately), I know someone who just opened up the applicable chapter to a question and practically plaigarized their A answer right out of it. Buy that one, for sure.

Yeah E&E is a much better tool to use throughout the semester, as opposed to weeks before the exams. However, I think a lot of people found the Civ Pro one especially good for joinder, supplemental JXN, etc.

I have been using the E&E's for Crim Law, K's and Torts before we go over a new concept in class and then I do the hypos with my study partner after we've worked through the concept in class with the professor (ok, so I have been a law student for 3 weeks, so that is only a couple of chapters per course!) I really like the E&E's a lot.

I'll keep doing the CALI's! Can you get BarBri materials used? What are the Gibson's? I did a search and saw a series called Siegel's. Have y'all had any experience with that?

Also, does anyone have any links to practice MPREs? I have PR this semester, and the final will be part mult choice/part short essay.

Thanks again! I suck at multiple choice exams, so I'm a little nervous for those.

I think I must be the laziest law student on GC. I used Gilbert's for the most part. I also had some tapes that were my boyfriend's for all of the 1L classes and I liked those because I could play video games while I listened.
