u/Twentysomethingz · 4 pointsr/LawSchool

Hi! Just took the CA Bar and am about to start packing out of my on campus apartment, so I'm feeling a bit whimsical and some of this may be more directed at her.

Writing, Notetaking, and Organization

If you're particular about writing instruments, which some people are, it will take trial and error to find your right fit. This was my go-to, and it got me through three years of time, four years of credits, and three different employers.

Sharpie Liquid Highlighters, Chisel Tip, 5 Colors


Pros

  • Great color, easy grip, chisel tip allows full line highlighting and underlining.
  • Pen format works well in almost every bag or organizer.
  • Five colors allows you to book brief (she will know what that means, and probably shouldn't do it until she knows how to craft a good one page case brief) in FIRAC format.

    Cons

  • Getting harder and more expensive to find.
  • Go through ink fairly quickly.


    uni-ball Jetstream RT Ballpoint Pens, Bold Point (1.0mm)

    Pros

  • I mainly used the capped .07mm, but the retractable .07mm work well too.

    Cons

  • This is less of a Con and more of a comment. Things like line width, pressure, and paper type make a solid rec hard to make here. There's so much personal preference. My general rule of thumb is it should cost enough that you can rely on it without being expensive enough to make you think too hard about losing one occasionally.

    Freeleaf® Yellow Annotation Ruled Pads Letter

    Pros

  • Excellent weight, color, and ink retention.
  • Pre-formatted organization structure, so you know what everything is if it gets mixed up before you file it.

    Cons

  • It's $7 a pad. You're not going to find good quality pads for that much cheaper, but you fill find stuff that will get the job done cheaper. I maybe spent $200 during law school on pads, because I hand wrote notes. There's empirical studies that show it helps to write notes, but it was dying out at my school and I'd be surprised if my class would show any correlation between rank and note taking style.

    Ticonderoga Pencils, Wood-Cased, Graphite #2 HB Soft, Black

    Pros

  • Best quality pencil for the price, hands down.

    Cons

  • You could spend more on Blackwing, but the marginal utility is nil outside an artistry context, if then. Save the money for other things.

    BIC 4-Color Ballpoint Pen, Medium Point (1.0mm)

    Pros

  • Great quality, incredibly durable, great form factor.
  • Makes grading papers (self grading, or if she becomes a TA) turned in via hard copy a bit simpler. I had my own system that I maintained so that students could understand (Green - Good, Red - Rework, Blue - Style, Black - Final Comments)




    Since I am pickiest about those things, I will give more general comments about the rest.

  • Battery phone case, back up laptop charger, extra phone cables all work wonders. Having an extra on hand lets you not stress about the tools you need to succeed.

  • A good padfolio is both useful and a nod to the history of our profession in some circles. I went with Levenger, but everyone has their preferences.

  • The best bookstand on the market, in my humble opinion.








    This is more general, and beyond the scope of what you asked, but I felt like giving unasked for advice so you can take it or leave it.
    Sleeping & Home Life

  • The surliest 2L will casually throw around comments about sleep being for the weak, but there is literally no other way to get the kind of rest your mind and body needs. Invest in the things and habits that make great sleep possible, whatever that may be for her. And do the best you can to never be a barrier to it.
  • Sundays should be for rest and keeping everying not-school related on track. Need to visit friends or family? A few hours on Sunday is a great time to do that. Pre-plan meals and do bulk cooking to keep work down during the week. Get all the laundry done, get the kitchen clean, make sure you don't run out of toothpaste on Wednesday morning. Sunday evening you can get your reading done for Monday, but finish the night doing something restful so you don't go into Monday feeling you're jumping off a cliff.
  • Low-effort acts of kindness do a lot of work. Writing a note, leaving a message, suprising her with a small and thoughtful gift are all great ways to show you care without imposing too much on her time and autonomy. Date night is important, and keeping a running list of things you can do at a drop of a hat for different amounts of time and money is helpful, but keeping your relationship strong through what in all likelihood will be a time of incredible change and transformation is about putting in the effort without demanding an equal or greater act of reciprocation. Even when the thank you text gets delayed more than it should, or she snaps at you unfairly, the body of love you show will find its way through to the end. The best way to show you love her is to enable her success and let her respond in ways that make sense while she figures this whole thing out.
  • This is a very personal area that I will not spend too much time on, but here it goes. You may think you are a good lover now, and I hope you are. Try to be the best version of that for her now, in whatever form that takes. It helps a lot, proportionately to how much it's important to your relationship.

    Health & Wellness

  • This is not a gendered comment, even and especially coming from the perspective of a guy who had some bad habits he broke before and took into law school. Any habits you thought were hard to break before law school are going to be multiples harder in law school. Dealing with this may be damage control, or require more work, depending on what it is. A caffiene fiend is going to reach unparalled heights. None of my friends who smoked going into law school found a way to quit. The moderate drinkers became heavy drinkers. Some people took up the gym as a new religion, but most stayed true to form. The only real way to know how to handle this is to either stop it quick or find an adult and productive way to keeps things reasonable.

  • For the love of all that is holy, exercise. It is proven to help brain function whether in cognitive skills or emotional health or stress reduction. If it's nonexistent now, start small and try to build up to some routine of significance while it can become a habit and before the midsemester crunch hits.
u/chicklet2011 · 19 pointsr/LawSchool

I'm linking my favorite products!

​

Warning: if you hand write, you're going to be writing A LOT. I feel like I learn better when I do my class notes by hand, but I do have a hard time keeping up with the pace of the class. Each professor's teaching style has an impact on the way you take your notes. Be prepared to be flexible. (I hate that my note system is not uniform across my classes, but I know it is better that way)

​

If you like pen-and-paper:

These spiral notebooks have durable brightly colored covers that will survive your backpack, and it is a good idea to keep your notes organized by subject. The paper is thick enough that good highlighter (which I will also link) won't bleed through.

These erasable pens are great. They write very smoothly and erase cleanly--NOT at all like the crappy blue erasable pens of our youth. If you take notes in your textbook, these pens are the way to do it. I love them so much that I was having them shipped from Japan before they even hit the US market.

These standard pens are my go-to for anything that I don't want to be erasable. They write smoothly, and dry quickly enough that they don't smudge or transfer (I'm not sure for left-handed people though).

This mechanical pencil is what I use when I can't use pens. I like that it uses .5mm lead so that your writing can be small and precise. The barrel is large so it is comfortable to write with for extended periods of time (think blue-book exams).

These highlighters are the best. The colors are intentional mild/pastel so that they do not distract from other information on the page, but are easy to spot when you're looking for your highlights. They don't bleed through paper unless it is toilet-paper thin. When they do bleed through very very thin paper, the mild colors make it so that it is not a distraction.

​

If you like pen-and-paper, but are afraid of your notes being lost or stolen:

Rocketbook Everlast Notebook coordinates with an app that lets you create a digital copy of your notes. Scan a picture of the page, and the QR code on each page tells the app where to send a SEARCHABLE .pdf copy of your handwritten notes. It works with Google Drive, Evernote, Dropbox, OneNote, OneDrive, Trello, Slack, box, Google Photos, and email. Best of all, the notebook is completely reusable! (As long as you use writing tools from Pilot's Frixion line) Once you've filled the book, you wipe down the plastic pages with a hot damp towel and you can use the book again. I've filled and reused my Rocketbook 4 time so far, and the pages are still in great condition. I send my notes to Google Drive and OneNote, and I've never had any problems.

These highlighters can be used inside the Rocketbook, or on regular paper.

​

If you're thinking about going digital:

Your school might provide access to note taking programs. My school provides the full Office 365 Online suite, so I used OneNote. I was a pen-and-paper person in undergrad, and it pains me to switch to digital, but I just need that copy/paste functionality.

​

Textbook Supplies:

These sticky flags just came in the mail the other day, and I am loving them for use in my textbooks. I HATE writing in my textbooks, so instead I use these sticky flags to point at lines my professors emphasize in class.

These lined sticky notes are what I used when I just can't avoid adding notes to my casebooks. I avoid the "super-sticky" post-its because casebook pages are thin, and the super-sticky adhesive tears the pages when you reposition notes.

This book stand lives in my backpack now. When I started 1L year my back and neck hurt all the time from hunching over my casebooks for hours every day. This book stand makes it so the book comes to my face, instead of my face to the book. My posture is much better.

Reading glasses are something worth looking into and talking to your eye doctor about. After just one semester of staring at books and screens all day, I went from needing a mild prescription to see long-distance to needing full-on bifocals. I linked some glasses that will magnify your textbooks up close and and also filter out the blue light from screens. Talk to your doctor.

If you are assigned soft-cover reference materials, like The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, or Rule of Contract Law, you can take those books to FedEx or UPS, and they can spiral-bind them for you so that they lay flat and are easier to flip through. This can save you so much time on an exam.

​

Most importantly, have a planner.

You can get one from the store, you can print pages on line, you can leave yourself sticky-notes, or you can write your to-do list on your hands, whatever. No matter how you record it, it is crucial to have plan and stick to it. You're about to be hit with an overwhelming amount of conflicting obligations and opportunities, and there will always be something you ought to be working on. Plan and schedule your study time. Take time away to take care of yourself, and make a note to keep up with friends and/or family. You're never going to have "free time" in law school, but you can definitely have some flex time if you make a conscious effort to make room in your schedule.

​

Last: you don't need any of this stuff to be successful. Don't worry about what other people are doing, or even what the school tells you to do. If you feel like you do your personal best with a #2 pencil and loose leaf paper, then do that. Paying attention and managing your time wisely are far more important than having the perfect highlighters and the most organized planner.

u/big__money__salvia · 4 pointsr/LawSchool

Book stand. This is a must have, she will thank you for it. Maybe even do two, one for at home and one for at school.

Lame, but school supplies. Notebooks/legal pads, nice pens (Pilot G2, get them in at least black, blue, and red ink), high lighters (I'm partial to Zebra midliners because I like the colors, but Sharpie tanks are good too), etc. Just save her the cost of having to get them herself, and go bulk so she doesnt have to reup.

Comfy clothes (sweatshirt/sweatpants) for late night library sessions.

She a coffee drinker? French press/aeropress and a grinder. Much much better than drip coffee.

Photo magnet. Just something to keep in her locker to remind her she is cared for.

Get her something cool with her law schools logo on it. Sweatshirt, hat, mug, whatever she likes.

That's all just stuff I would have liked, but you know her best.

u/YousunkmyMaine · 1 pointr/INDYCAR

It really depends on what your plans are for your collection. If you just want them on the shelf in your office to show to your friends or clients to ooh and ahh at, without much concern about preservation, using stands like this or this wherever you have space should work well enough.

However, if you're looking to preserve the programs for many decades but still show them off, you'll want to keep your collection in a cool, dark, and dry environment. Rotating through your displayed programs seasonally would be smart and keeping those on display (you can use stands similar the ones above) in a cool room, out of direct or bright indirect sunlight, and away from water or excessive humidity will preserve your programs longer. For the copies not on display, lay them flat in a clean box and store the box in a clean (and cool, dark, and dry) closet. Acid and lignin-free boxes are the archival standard, but are probably overkill for the average person.

Framing also works, but as you mentioned, they limit access to the autographs. The stands are probably the best options that'll still allow you reasonable access to the magazine contents.

u/MisterP58 · 2 pointsr/IAmA

I've been looking for something like this for a long time: http://imgur.com/a/bkE2U (The Roost for Books / Notebooks)

I want to prop up textbooks while working at my computer.

However, $60 for a bookstand is bit on the high side, and I have a desktop, not a laptop. And textbooks can get heavy, but I doubt I'll ever run into a 200-pound book.

On the other hand, the collapsible feature is appealing for storage. I would be interested in a cheaper version of the Roost that might not be made of such strong materials, but is meant only to hold books.

Just thought I'd mention it, if you ever saw the demand.

I know, just like how redditors pointed out other notebook stand options, there are options for books. But they are either like this (not cheap, sturdy, but take up a lot of desk space): http://www.amazon.com/Book-Stand-Bookstand-Bookstands-Holder/dp/B001J9SFXK or like this (cheap, collapsible and look like they can't hold shit): http://www.amazon.com/Fellowes-Wire-Study-Stand-Silver-10024/dp/B00006B8HT/ref=pd_sim_op_1

u/bgfinkel · 2 pointsr/PAstudent

I see! It depends what notetaking software you use.

iPad solution: I would suggest this stand with an apple pencil compatible iPad. This one is only $250 and is compatible with the apple pencil. However, think about how you're going to have to load the lectures onto the iPad.

You can probably manage it on the iPad, but you're going to need to access the lecture through your email/online student center which could get difficult on the ipad.

A 2-in-1 laptop is a more elegant solution. You can download the lecture from wherever it comes from, then switch the laptop into a tablet and place it on the stand. Check out this summary by wirecutter on the best 2-in-1 laptop solutions.

Hope that helps

u/Talleyrayand · 2 pointsr/AskHistorians

Whether or not you like to type your notes or you like to write them out by hand like me, a good investment is a portable book stand. I can't tell you how useful one of those things was when I was reading for my oral exams.

I would say as far as reading and organization goes that there's no universal method that works for everyone; recognize your style and cater to it. I have to read things on paper (I hate e-books) and I have to take notes on paper, so I'll generally write in books and jot things down on PDF documents.

My tendency is to scribble short notes about refutation - just enough to help me remember what I disagreed with - and more detailed notes that will help me summarize the book's argument when I'm finished. Then I go through my notes and write a "literature review" of what I've read. I try to summarize the piece's argument as succinctly as possible and offer some constructive criticism - all within the span of less than a thousand words, which is about the word limit for a journal review. This helps me remember the book better than simply reading it, particularly if it's not a remarkable one.

My other piece of advice: for the love of God, be consistent. I've had colleagues who've had to switch note-taking methods midway through their research and ended up with a clusterfuck on their hands trying to adapt one format to another (in this case, note cards to Endnote X5).

u/WorstAdviceNow · 1 pointr/LawSchool

It doesn’t have to be fancy either. I use something like this. Super small and light, I can slip it into the folio I use to hold my surface and take it to and from school. A lot of the 1L classes have a lot of people in them, and we’re crammed in pretty tight, so it actually takes up less room on the desk if you’re using it, which is nice.

I’m also a big fan of the Rocketbook Everlast and the Frixion pens. You can write on it, link a symbol in the app to a specific class/online service, then scan the page using the app. You can set it so that if you check the diamond symbol, the app knows it’s Property your property notes, and the notes go directly to the property folder in Dropbox. But if you check the heart symbol, it’ll be for law review and instead it will send it as an email attachment. Then when the notebook is full, you wipe the pages with a damp cloth, and all the ink is washed away and you can start over with a blank notebook; so one notebook can last you for many many uses. I primarily got it because our property professor didn’t allow computers in class to take notes, but have kept using it in other classes to as a supplement to my typed notes.

u/poorbobsweater · 1 pointr/BabyBumps

It sits on the edge of my nightstand, more or less like the one below. It's convenient to take it into the living room to sit on the floor if I'm nursing and playing with/watching my oldest but I like the idea of a free standing one that could be more in front of me!

u/uberesque · 1 pointr/LawSchool

I don't use one only because I haven't gotten around to buying a proper one. I usually prop up my books using other text books, but I wish I had a proper one - I've developed some minor neck pain because I am the ultimate weenie and my body is like "lol, no" when it comes to studying.

It is especially useful if you are reading a book and simultaneously taking notes on it on a computer - instead of having to look down and up constantly, you can look side to side. other redditors may be able to chime in on how useful it is - you can read some comments in this thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/LawSchool/comments/2dtusm/reading_tips_and_techniques/

the following two have been recommended on the law school subreddit in the past:

If he uses Onenote or something to take notes in lecture, a Wacom tablet is awesome. There were ~5 people in my class that used a Wacom attached to their laptop during lecture.

Also, I own this and I loved it all through medschool

u/spencercross · 2 pointsr/LawSchool

I have this one, which I think strikes a nice balance between the bulkier all-wood versions and the flimsier plastic versions. I love it, though if you're going to be carrying it in a backpack every day I'd go with the small size. Added bonus: it doubles as a laptop stand.

u/Dacvak · 2 pointsr/battlestations

Yeah. I actually used to use a little picture frame holder to keep my devices propped up, but I forgot to bring that on this trip. This works pretty well, though!

u/Satellite0fLove · 13 pointsr/GradSchool

Something I recently purchased which I really like is a portable book stand - it tends to be a pain to have to carefully turn each page, but it is much easier than having to hold a book open and write/constantly put weight on the book.

It has also helped immensely to have a good: roomy backpack with lots of compartments, wireless mouse for my laptop, and a detailed day planner.

u/cuteintern · 2 pointsr/Android

I have a book stand that is awesome for holding my tablet. It's wrought iron, very basic, and does a killer job holding my tablet in landscape form. If I were to use it for a phone I would have to rig something with a ruler and a book to give it a proper place to rest, but it's totally doable.

Unfortunately, it was given to me by an aunt before I went to college, and there are no marks on it to distinguish it.

You might be able to go with something like this from Amazon or at least derive some inspiration from that. I saw a ton of book stands on Amazon - I would imagine there's something out there you could use.

And there's nothing to stop you from making one yourself out of some nice lumber from a hardware store.

u/Mug_of_coffee · 2 pointsr/uAlberta

This'll be a weird one, but maybe it's worth your time?

Buy a book stand (https://www.amazon.ca/MyLifeUNIT-Bamboo-Desktop-Reading-Adjustable/dp/B01EL69R6Q/ref=sr_1_20?s=office&ie=UTF8&qid=1538878405&sr=1-20&keywords=book+stand)

This seriously helps with making studying comfortable and keeping your desk organized. Helps prevent neck pain and undue wear and tear on your books.

I've owned two of these Levo stands, they are amazing. Available in clamp on version, tablet attachment also works well.

$20 though. Wouldn't one of those [textbook stands] ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00006B8HT/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1394293213&sr=1-3) be considerably cheaper. Not to mention the book being propped upright would free up counter space and the stand would make pages easier to turn with say just your knuckle while your hands are sticky with dough.

u/SimHuman · 4 pointsr/ehlersdanlos

Use a book stand on the desk or table. I have several kinds for different types of book, like this and this.

I mostly read on Kindle or tablet now because tapping the screen to turn pages is much easier than holding a book up. Right now my tablet is sitting in the second book stand I linked above.

Get a cheap book stand. I use this one with the plastic arms removed

This book stand has been quite a big help for me recently. It gives me more room to write and I'm not straining my neck like crazy. I can't believe I never thought of it earlier; I always hated holding heavy textbooks or bending over them and straining my neck, and that would make me put off studying.
