<p>jwinaz: I wrote all of my outlines myself, except for Property. (That class was legendary: we covered the entire textbook in one semester.) </p>
<p>During the actual exam, I would only look up one or two things; in an issue-spotter exam, I sometimes skimmed over my TofC to ensure that I caught every issue and didn’t space out on something. </p>
<p>My longest exam was probably about fifteen pages, but I usually wrote around 12 or 13 pages (1.5 spaced). It’s helpful to spend some time getting your thoughts in order so that you can write more efficiently and in a more cogent manner, but I spent about 3/4ths of my time writing. </p>
<p>Demo mentioned the LSAT as a time-crunched exam, but I found that law school exams were the most time-crunched tests I took, outside of engineering and high-level science courses in college. I felt like the LSAT made me hurry a bit at the end, or be conscious of my time throughout; law school exams are a three-hour sprint.</p>
