Best study aids for Evidence & Con Law?

[big - fat - box]

I used the Evidence E&E and did well in Evidence. Other than that I just used the fed rules,  my class notes, and some materials the prof gave out. The other guys who said it's essential to actually work through the E&E questions to get the relevant info are absolutely correct. The whole E&E series is like that. If you try to use it like a dictionary to just look things up it's not going to be very useful.

If your prof is using Chemerinsky's casebook, you probably don't need the supplement IMO.  Just read all the notes/whatever around the cases in the casebook.  The casebook lays out the BLL pretty well.

Do others agree that TITCR?

I just found out that my professor will indeed be using Chemerinsky's casebook...is there a sufficient overlap in the explanations in each that the supplement is unnecessary?

There is substantial overlap but there is also new material in easy to understand terms. If you are struggling, it can definitely help fill in the gaps. I used it here and there but not regularly. In fact, I found my prof actually hit on some things in the supp but not in the casebook. Just my experience.

I agree.
