o*****n 发帖数: 445 | 1 我bio postdoc第二年。读书时做科学拿学位,现在也开始考虑以后究竟以什么为事业
了。觉得law是一个decent的选择,但是也不想上来就用半年考LSAT。我想先买点法律
方面的书籍,看看是不是自己真的对法律(JD)感兴趣,毕竟是要投入大量时间和金钱

读法律的同学们能不能推荐一俩本比较好的JD基础课的书,让我对要学的东西有个大概
认识。谢谢。 |

The book subtitles look very interesting, are all law books
like this one? If so, law is a quite interesting subject. |

before 1L. Better go in with a blank mind. |

If you think you are good with numbers, try your luck with a Corporate
Finance book.
If you want to make sense of all the fine prints, split your hairs in
