Rule 50

The Front Page

Your outline may be long or short. Some are ten pages, some are sixty. The outline may cover every single word of your notes or be a distilled version of the rules. But at the front of every outline should be a one-page summary sheet.

Think of this front page as the table of contents to your outline, or perhaps the outline of your outline. This front page should be the distilled organization of the class material. This is also your issue-spotting guide. This one page will be the key to whether you can see all the issues in a class jump out from the page. If the secret to exam taking (and lawyering) is issue-spotting in a quick and logical manner, then this is the secret to the secret.

If you have outlined correctly and if your outline created a mind map, you will probably not ever need to refer to anything besides this first page. It will guide you through the issue-spotting and trigger your rules and answers.
