Once you have established an account, we will enroll you in the course. Please check back in 2 business day after establishing your account. Everyone admitted to your law school has demonstrated similar intelligence, commitment and effort. What distinguishes "A" students is study skills and habits, access to legal information, analytical and test-taking skills. All these are skills and abilities that can be learned and improved upon. In our more than 35 years of experience, we have seen the impact that intense preparation can have on a student's ability to excel. The Law School Boot Camp is a 10 week online distance learning program designed to provide that intense preparation. The Boot Camp will teach students to study effectively for law school, introduce students to the writing, thinking and test-taking skills needed to excel on law school exams, and build a network of academic support that crosses school boundaries. For more information and application: http://thejdproject.org/Excelling/BootCamp/Program.htm. Space is limited. LIMITED TO PARTICIPANTS IN 2008 SUMMER BOOT CAMP.
