Let's conduct a thought experiment. "If someone you loved were entering as a 1L in September of 2008, how would you help that person do better than you did?"
    Mina makes a good point: "do you mean "do better" only in terms of grades? quality/amount of knowledge gained? overall experience (including social life)? or all of the above?"

  • We can approximate the most probable exam as the one which a person empathizing with the professor is most likely to write.
Lesson 2: DO NOT attempt to empathize with the professor privately; empathy is a social construct. Define a person empathizing with the professor in terms of how your peers empathize with your professor. Either do this by forming a study group, or by using multiple G-drive outlines (past classmates).

<		In principle, a single document could come into being that permits a future student to get a high grade without buying a casebook or transcribing a word of lecture. Indeed, my outlines for Contracts and Civil Procedure last semester would have permitted a student to do this, had my professors not, respectively, retired / been retired. I plan to contribute my outline to the G-Drive collection. To outlines one through six, there will now be seven.

 Information equals the destruction of bad data. The problem is, that the addition of newer, better outlines makes it MORE difficult for future 1Ls to distinguish bad from good data. We are just adding new data, not new information, until we identify a force that can identify and destroy the bad data.
