It's hard to say in the abstract, but I would think that would put you somewhere in the first quintile/quarter/whatever your school uses, and, at worst, at the top of the second quintile/quarter.

Exactly - I've only used commercial outlines a couple of times, and only to supplement my own outlines. It really helps me to study when I take my notes and convert them into outline form; it reinforces some forgotten points, and reminds me of some of the important cases and concepts that will most likely show up on the final.
On a completely different note: I figured I'd post this in this thread, since it seems a bit too specialized a story for News and Politics. Tom Goldstein has a really interesting post on SCOTUS blog about the recent
Herring decision:

Just thought I'd throw that out there...I haven't read the opinion as of yet, and I'm no expert in criminal law, but it appears that the Court may have made a huge shift here with regards to the exclusionary rule.
