Description: "Every year, law students participate in the "write-on competition" for a shot at membership on the law review. Too many, however, enter the competition unprepared. This book is designed to help readers become familiar with how the competition works, how to prepare for it, and how to write a winning submission paper. Author Wes Henricksen interviewed dozens of current and former law review members at many of the top law schools to learn their secrets to success in the write-on competition. This book synthesizes those students' experiences into a comprehensive body of valuable advice."-- Publisher's website.
