So you’ve mastered issue spotting, analysis, formatting, and synthesis. Congratulations! Now it is time to put it all together and draft the greatest legal document the legal community has ever seen.

This one-hour session is dedicated solely to taking a mock legal essay exam. Students will be given a fact pattern and will have the entire session to draft a responsive essay.
