Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're talking about how to make a smooth transition to open book and take-home exams, since law schools are likely to use them this semester.

In this episode we discuss:

Different types of take-home exams
The difficulty level of open book take-home exams compared to traditional in-class ones
Why it's still important to know the law for take-home exams
How to create effective cheat sheets and outlines
Preparing the logistics and technology you'll need
Structuring your time in advance
Reaching out with questions well ahead of the exam
