Today I'm taking my first "real" final exam at law school. It's really more like a practice exam than a true final, since we have less than two weeks of material under our belts, but it should be a good ice breaker for getting into the law school mindset. We're being graded on a Pass/No Pass basis, so there is basically no anxiety connected to this test other than getting the procedure down. Anonymous finals require a certain degree of processing and handling, which must be done according to strict rules and regulations to ensure no breach of confidentiality.
Unlike most final exams in law school, this one is completely closed notes and closed book, except that we have been given a list of three problems to study, one of which will be the exam question. Rather than cramming a bunch of black letter law into an outline, prep for this test will be focused on analysis and issue spotting which can be done in advance. I think it will be fun.
