Approximately 10% of law students will complete their studies as the proud owner of a firstclass degree, which makes it statistically the hardest degree to get top grades in. This is pretty daunting, but I think a lot of the problems stem from the generic advice offered by professors and peers. Their advice is often repetitive, mostly subjective, and has no real evidential basis as to whether it actually it works or how you can apply to studying law. So, in this video I break down the Efficient Study Framework I used when revising for my exams, supported with evidence, which ultimately helped me to rank first at law school.
