PARTICIPATION IN CLASS

Because professors usually prefer to pay equal attention to your classmates too, you can probably bet that if you’ve just been called on, you’re safe for a while and won’t get called on again (unless, of course, you were unprepared.) It will be apparent which professors this applies to. You can give yourself a break for a few days after you have been called on, as the chances of being called on again the next class are slim. Use this downtime to catch up with your other classes.

In addition, when someone else has just been called on and you have a feeling that your number might be up next, pay attention to what’s going on in class, and get ready. In an emergency, spend the time the professor is grilling the other student by reading ahead and refreshing your memory about the upcoming case. (Far better, however, to spend at least a few minutes before class to, at a minimum, familiarize yourself with the cases. There are rarely more than one or two cases for each class period.)
