Someone came by here via the above Google search. Twice, in fact. It probably took a while to figure out why, because the page it serves up from me is not very useful.

Let me just say this, though. I definitely recommend an outline, even though it was, for us, a 7-day take home.

Why? Well, I didn't make an outline. I figured with all of my notes (marked up versions of the class notes he gave us for each class), my casebook, and my Schechter mini-treatise (which was a lifesaver) that the exam wouldn't be a problem. Oh, was I wrong. With each of the 25 multiple choice questions averaging around 30 minutes to "confidently" answer, I was already way beyond the 7-hour estimate he gave in class. But I still had three essay questions to respond to.

I still did alright, if not great, but man... An ounce of prevention would have been great.
