  • exams are full MC, you can kinda guess the answers using common sense. use libgen to get the textbook instead of paying $100 for it.

  • You learn a variety of topics in law, mostly regarding contracts and torts. Unfortunately there wasn't more content on things like bankruptcy, insurance, etc.
