1L time management
It’s my first week, and I’m already spending around seven hours outside of class each day just reading and completing assignments. This doesn’t feel sustainable. I’m a really slow reader, especially when it comes to briefing cases, and I’m worried that at this pace I’m going to fall behind.
Does anyone have tips for getting through readings and case briefs more efficiently?
Also, when should I start outlining for each course, and what’s the best way to structure an outline? Should I organize it based on the chapters in the textbook, or follow the topics covered in class/syllabus?
