The definitive wannabe lawyer alphabet

From “awareness” (particularly of the commercial type) to “mooting” (if you moot on a subject, you never forget it) to “Zzzzzz” (tips on avoiding burnout) — City University’s brilliant Lawbore shares the definitive law student A to Z.

For more fun and accessible law career resources, check out Learnmore, the skills section of Lawbore.

It features, among other things, a list of law essay competitions, an anatomy of a law report which explains how to read them, and a mooting advice section featuring loads of videos, slideshows and articles.

Lawbore‘s City Hub also has a great events calendar for law events in London.
