Book Reviews - So, You Want to be a Lawyer, Eh? by Adam Letourneau
Here is a collection of current reviews by readers of the book:
Amazon.ca - 5 STARS - "This book was very informative. It walks you through the law school experience in Canada, from applying to first year all the way to choosing your articles. I was very pleased with the wide range of, from the best way to manage your study time to the advantages/disadvantages of laptops in classes. It also addresses the big issues (articles, interviews, etc) from a variety of viewpoints. That is to say, it can function as a road map to big law, small firms or a variety of other law goals.
Finally, the conversational tone of the book made it a more entertaining read than many reference books. It seemed more like a friendly discussion with someone who had been through it already than a boring list of facts and suggestions. All in all a great purchase."
~Ian Gordon
Amazon.ca - 5 STARS - "I have read a number of guidebooks on how to succed at law school and this is by far one of the best. Mr. Letourneau's book is excellent, clear and offers pretty much some of the best advice when it comes to navigating law school and beginning your career. He clearly outlines the steps you have to take to succed while in law school and gives you serious food for thought about what you may want to do after law school. If your thinking of law school, are already on your way, or already there, this book is an excellent resources to help you understand what is going on and what you should be doing.
I just have one thing to say: wish I had found the book before entering law school!"
~Dan (Ontario, Canada)
Amazon.ca - 5 STARS - "I picked up this book out of curiosity because of the catchy title. Once I started reading it, I knew it was a must have. It gives an honest discussion of why one should consider a career in law,the LSAT and application process, the realities of law school, and how to keep one's sanity while being a successful student. It gives specific strategies to use (scarce) study time effectively. It ends by giving practical tips on articling. It was a treat to read something about the Canadian Law school experience. This book is worth every dime I spent on it and I know I will refer to it as I am getting into the routine of law school."
~Kelly "Kelly" (Western Canada)
Amazon.ca - 5 STARS - "Alan Dershowitz once remarked that giving advice is among the most hazardous of undertakings. He contends that one should always be skeptical of 'wholesale' or 'one-size-fits-all' advice; the best advice is always custom tailored to the particular person seeking it.
I am happy to report that Adam Letourneau's 'So You Want To Be A Lawyer, Eh?' is a truly unique and remarkable resource that assembles the hard-learned lessons from Letourneau's own experiences as a former student (and Law Review Editor in Chief) at the University of Alberta Faculty of Law in addition to a broad sampling of advice from his peers at other Law Schools.
As an entering 1L myself, I'm particularly interested in advice on the following issues: Is law the right profession for me? How should I prepare for class and study for exams? Are 1st year law grades 'all important'? How and when should I look for a coveted articling position?
SYWTBALE offers lots of terrific advice on all the abovementioned questions, and more (e.g. 'Should I have a laptop for law school'). More importantly, the wide range of perspectives offered in SYWTBALE lets the reader extrapolate from Letourneau's experiences to one's own unique situation. SYWTBALE is organized in such a way that a prospective law student, current law student, or recent law grad can each jump in and read only the information they find most relevant.
This book is by far the most comprehensive, helpful, and thoroughly readable resource on the Canadian law school experience I've yet encountered. Don't miss it!"
~Son H. Le (Calgary, AB)
Amazon.ca - 5 STARS - "The book is an absolute must-read for those considering pursuing a career in the law. A number of books address the topic in the U.S. context; however, this is the first book I have encountered that thoroughly addresses: (1) Canadian law school life, (2) tips that will help one land the articling position of their choice; and (3) work as an articling student and junior lawyer in Canada. The book is very comprehensive, well-written, and well-researched."
Amazon.com - 5 STARS - "Applying to and attending law school in Canada can be a challenging process. Unlike the many books that focus on the experience in the US, this book specifically looks at the Canadian system. 'So, You Want to Be a Lawyer, Eh?' outlines the process and offers tips to improve your results in the application process, at law school and in finding an articling position. I will be attending law school next year and I am confident that this book will help me succeed.
I highly recommend anyone considering a career in law in Canada to read this book!"
~Jaime (Ontario, Canada)
Amazon.com - 5 STARS - "As a future Canadian law student, I was frustrated with the lack of guide material available to Canadian law students. All of the material I was able to find was aimed toward American students. Since there are some differences between the way the two countries educate their lawyers, it was important to find a book like this that addresses the particular elements of Canadian Law School.
I highly recommend this to anyone contemplating law school in Canada."
~F. Voisin (Ontario, Canada)
Amazon.com - 5 STARS - "This book proved to be a good reference material that is written in laymen terms and formatted in an easy to follow chronological order taking you from the application process to the law school experience to seeking out law firms for articling.
The author, an articling law student, has taken the time to explain what potential law students should consider when seeking a career in this field.
This book also provides reference to several websites that will be useful in preparing one for the LSAT to selecting a law school to financing your education.
I definitely recommend this book as a planning tool for highschool/university students and mature adults considering a career in this field."
~Natasha L. Bastien
Chapters.ca - 5 STARS - "I bought this book about six months ago while going through the important decision-making process of investigating law school. This book offered excellent advice (and reassurance) about everything from the LSAT to articling to practicing as a professional. It was well worth investing in this book before making the much larger investment of actually going to law school!! I would hightly recommend that someone purchase this book before they even consider going to law school in Canada."
~Sean (Calgary)
Chapters.ca - 5 STARS - "Although there a number of books about applying to and attending law school, 'So, you want to be a Lawyer, Eh?' looks specifically at the process in Canada. Written from the perspective of a recent law school graduate, this book is informative and entertaining in detailing the experience of someone who has been through the whole law school experience. I will be attending law school this September and I feel that this book has given me a good understanding of what to expect. I'd highly recommend this book for anybody who has applied or is thinking of applying to law school in Canada!"

Canadian Law School Outlines or CANS
For those of you who don't know, CANS or Outlines are Condensed Annotated Notes or Summaries of law courses. Everybody does their CANS/Outline a little bit different. Some are definitely more useful than others. You can ask classmates to share their notes, and vice versa, but that doesn't always work. Many students find that accessing the notes and summaries of somebody to be useful in preparing for class and especially for law exams. As such, I have provided a bunch of my notes, CANS and summaries from my law school experience on www.canadianlawschool.ca. All they do now is collect dust on my shelf, unless I am totally lost on a legal subject at work. I thought you might find them useful in saving time and energy, and maybe even learning something, heaven forbid! I don't promise that my notes or the notes of others are comprehensive, accurate or that they will save you during cram time, but I am confident that they can help. Enjoy.
Find tons of class notes, CANS or Outlines that you need for law school. Includes 1L, 2L, 3L (First Year, Second Year, and Third Year) Cans and Outlines. Great resources for law students attending law school in Canada. It is advisable for you to create your own CANS/Outlines to achieve optimal success in law school. Use these at your own risk.

Acing Your First Year of Law School: The Ten Steps to Success You Won't Learn in Class by Shana Connell Noyes (Author), Henry S. Noyes (Author), CDN$ 21.95
From the Publisher
Law school attendance continues to rise each year. As more and more students enter law school, it becomes even harder to stand out in the crowd of other students. This book will teach you how to stand head and shoulders above your colleagues in law school, and succeed in your most critical year of law school, the first year.
Product Description: Most first-year law students waste a tremendous amount of time learning piles of information they don't need to know, because they have no one to guide them. This text, in ten easy-to read chapters, is the guide for students entering or contemplating law school. After reading the ten chapters, set up as lessons, student will know how to study the law.
Getting to Maybe: How to Excel on Law School Exams by Richard Michael Fischl (Author), Jeremy Paul (Author), CDN$ 19.51
Professors Fischl and Paul explain law school exams in ways no one has before, all with an eye toward improving the reader's performance. The book begins by describing the difference between educational cultures that praise students for "right answers," and the law school culture that rewards nuanced analysis of ambiguous situations in which more than one approach may be correct. Enormous care is devoted to explaining precisely how and why legal analysis frequently produces such perplexing situations. But the authors don't stop with mere description. Instead, Getting to Maybe teaches how to excel on law school exams by showing the reader how legal analysis can
be brought to bear on examination problems. The book contains hints on studying and preparation that go well beyond conventional advice. The authors also illustrate how to argue both sides of a legal issue without appearing wishy-washy or indecisive. Above all, the book explains why exam questions may generate feelings of uncertainty or
doubt about correct legal outcomes and how the student can turn these feelings to his or her advantage. In sum, although the authors believe that no exam guide can substitute for a firm grasp of substantive material, readers who devote the necessary time to learning the law will find this book an invaluable guide to translating learning into better exam performance.
Law School For Dummies by Rebecca Fae Greene (Author), CDN$ 20.29
The straightforward guide to surviving and thriving in law school.
Every year more than 40,000 students enter law school and at any given moment there are over 125,000 law school students in the United States. Law school’s highly pressurized, super-competitive atmosphere often leaves students stressed out and confused, especially in their first year. Balancing life and schoolwork, passing the bar, and landing a job are challenges that students often need help facing. In Law School For Dummies, former law school student Rebecca Fae Greene uses straight talk, sound advice, and gentle humor to help students sort through the swamp of coursework and focus on what’s important–all while maintaining a life. She also offers rare insight on the law school experience for women, minorities, non-traditional, and non-Ivy League students.
Law School Confidential: A Complete Guide to the Law School Experience: By Students, for Students by Robert H. Miller (Author), CDN$ 18.17

Fresh out of University of Pennsylvania Law School, Robert Miller has assembled a panel of recent law school graduates all of whom are perfectly positioned to shed light on what law school is like today. Law School Confidential invites you to walk in their steps to success and to learn from their mistakes. From taking the LSAT, to securing financial aid, to navigating the notorious first semester, to exam-taking strategies, to applying for summer internships, to getting on the law review, to tackling the bar and beyond...Law School Confidential explains it all.

This handbook for aspiring lawyers coaches them to make the most of law school by taking charge of their education and burgeoning careers early on. It provides current and future law students with invaluable information about the law school application process, financing law school, selecting classes, evaluating study groups, developing effective exam-taking strategies, choosing extracurricular activities and summer jobs, preparing for the bar exam, and balancing school with family life. Demonstrated are the ways in which students can begin to think like practicing lawyers and attain experience in law school that is relevant, practical, and essential to practicing law in the real world.
Starting Off Right in Law School by Carolyn Nygren (Author), CDN$ 15.83
The result of eight years of Nygren's work with first-semester students in five different law schools, this book melds information about the legal system usually found in legal methods books with information about study skills
usually found in books with a "how to succeed in law school" focus. The book uses one area of law — the implied warranty of merchantability as it applies to food — to illustrate various legal issues and the skills needed to master them. It introduces basic legal concepts and vocabulary in the context of one hypothetical case, and then focuses on the structure of cases and types of reasoning courts use. When finished with the book, readers will have the background they need in order to demonstrate a thorough knowledge of legal materials.
One L: The Turbulent True Story of a First Year at Harvard Law School by Scott Turow (Author), CDN$ 15.96
One L, Scott Turow's journal of his first year at law school introduces and a best-seller when it was first published
in 1977, has gone on to become a virtual bible for prospective law students. Not only does it introduce with remarkable clarity the ideas and issues that are the stuff of legal education; it brings alive the anxiety and competiveness--with others and, even more, with oneself--that set the tone in this crucible of character building.
Turow's multidimensional delving into his protagonists' psyches and his marvelous gift for suspense prefigure the achievements of his celebrated first novel, Presumed Innocent, one of the best-selling and most talked about books of 1987. Each September, a new crop of students enter Harvard Law School to begin an intense, often grueling, sometimes harrowing year of introduction to the law. Turow's group of One Ls are fresh, bright, ambitious, and more than a little daunting. Even more impressive are the faculty: Perini, the dazzling, combative professor of contracts, who presents himself as the students' antagonist in their struggle to master his subject; Zechman, the reserved professor of torts who seems so indecisive the students fear he cannot teach; and Nicky Morris, a young, appealing man who stressed the humanistic aspects of law. Will the One Ls survive? Will they excel? Will they make the Law Review, the outward and visible sign of success in this ultra-conservative microcosm? With remarkable insight into both his fellows and himself, Turow leads us through the ups and downs, the small triumphs and tragedies of the year, in an absorbing and throught-provoking narrative that teaches the reader not only about law school and the law but about the human beings who make them what they are. In the new afterword for this edition of One L, the author looks back on law school from the perspective of ten years' work as a lawyer and offers some suggestions for reforming legal education.
1000 Days to the Bar: But the Practice of Law Begins Now by Dennis J. Tonsing (Author), CDN$ 21.36

Every year more than 40,000 students enter law school and at any given moment there are over 125,000 law school students in the United States. Law school’s highly pressurized, super-competitive atmosphere often leaves students stressed out and confused, especially in their first year. Balancing life and schoolwork, passing the bar, and landing a job are challenges that students often need help facing. In Law School For Dummies, former law school student Rebecca Fae Greene uses straight talk, sound advice, and gentle humor to help students sort through the swamp of coursework and focus on what’s important–all while maintaining a life. She also offers rare insight on the law school experience for women, minorities, non-traditional, and non-Ivy League students.

Don't get to the end of your law school career muttering these words to yourself! Take the first step toward building a productive, successful, and perhaps even pleasant law school experience...read this book! Written for students about to embark on this three year odyssey, by students who have successfully
survived law school. Law School Confidential demystifies the life-altering thrill ride that defines an American legal education by providing a comprehensive, blow-by-blow, chronological account of what to expect. Law School Confidential arms students with a thorough overview of the contemporary law school experience. This isn't the advice of graying professors or battle-scarred practitioners decades removed from the law school. Fresh out of University of Pennsylvania Law School, Robert Miller has assembled a panel of recent law school graduates all of whom are perfectly positioned to shed light on what law school is like today. Law School Confidential invites you to walk in their steps to success and to learn from their mistakes. From taking the LSAT, to securing financial aid, to navigating the notorious first semester, to exam-taking strategies, to applying for summer internships, to getting on the law review, to tackling the bar and beyond...Law School Confidential explains it all.
The Practice of Law School: Getting in and Making the Most of Your Legal Education by Esq.,, Christen Civiletto Carey (Author), CDN$ 26.57This handbook for aspiring lawyers coaches them to make the most of law school by taking charge of their education and burgeoning careers early on. It provides current and future law students with invaluable information about the law school application process, financing law school, selecting classes, evaluating study groups, developing effective exam-taking strategies, choosing extracurricular activities and summer jobs, preparing for the bar exam, and balancing school with family life. Demonstrated are the ways in which students can begin to think like practicing lawyers and attain experience in law school that is relevant, practical, and essential to practicing law in the real world.
Starting Off Right in Law School by Carolyn Nygren (Author), CDN$ 15.83The result of eight years of Nygren's work with first-semester students in five different law schools, this book melds information about the legal system usually found in legal methods books with information about study skills
usually found in books with a "how to succeed in law school" focus. The book uses one area of law — the implied warranty of merchantability as it applies to food — to illustrate various legal issues and the skills needed to master them. It introduces basic legal concepts and vocabulary in the context of one hypothetical case, and then focuses on the structure of cases and types of reasoning courts use. When finished with the book, readers will have the background they need in order to demonstrate a thorough knowledge of legal materials.
One L, Scott Turow's journal of his first year at law school introduces and a best-seller when it was first published
in 1977, has gone on to become a virtual bible for prospective law students. Not only does it introduce with remarkable clarity the ideas and issues that are the stuff of legal education; it brings alive the anxiety and competiveness--with others and, even more, with oneself--that set the tone in this crucible of character building.
Turow's multidimensional delving into his protagonists' psyches and his marvelous gift for suspense prefigure the achievements of his celebrated first novel, Presumed Innocent, one of the best-selling and most talked about books of 1987. Each September, a new crop of students enter Harvard Law School to begin an intense, often grueling, sometimes harrowing year of introduction to the law. Turow's group of One Ls are fresh, bright, ambitious, and more than a little daunting. Even more impressive are the faculty: Perini, the dazzling, combative professor of contracts, who presents himself as the students' antagonist in their struggle to master his subject; Zechman, the reserved professor of torts who seems so indecisive the students fear he cannot teach; and Nicky Morris, a young, appealing man who stressed the humanistic aspects of law. Will the One Ls survive? Will they excel? Will they make the Law Review, the outward and visible sign of success in this ultra-conservative microcosm? With remarkable insight into both his fellows and himself, Turow leads us through the ups and downs, the small triumphs and tragedies of the year, in an absorbing and throught-provoking narrative that teaches the reader not only about law school and the law but about the human beings who make them what they are. In the new afterword for this edition of One L, the author looks back on law school from the perspective of ten years' work as a lawyer and offers some suggestions for reforming legal education.
1000 Days to the Bar: But the Practice of Law Begins Now by Dennis J. Tonsing (Author), CDN$ 21.361000 Days to the Bar explains the relationship between the professional practice of law and the practice you need to perform each week to achieve your objectives. This unique guide is designed to empower first-year law students by presenting the components for academic success in a step-by-step format that lays out a practice-centered approach to legal studies. In this book you will discover how to: - Read and brief court opinions - Take and transform class notes into course summaries, outlines and flow charts. - Learn essential elements of the law "by heart." - Gain fluency in the "language of the law." Special supplements include: - Study tips from law school professors and academic support professionals. - Detailed descriptions of many of the most popular commercial study aids. - Time management details and time allocation methods, including creation of a personal Flexible Time Resource Allocation Chart. - Guidelines for powerful, effective study groups. - Instructions for preparing a practical and efficient law study environment.
Why Law?
So, you are Canadian or you would like to study in Canada and you have been considering law as a career, eh?
