S.O.U.N.D. Advice on Practicing Law School Essay Exams:
As you practice essays and continue honing your writing skills, developing reverse outlines can serve as a helpful exercise. Put simply, a reverse outline is prepared after the fact: after you’ve written an essay, you go back and outline the essay you’ve written, focusing on your writing one sentence and one paragraph at a time. Reverse outlines allow you deconstruct and then re-engineer your answers, and they help you pinpoint where your essays are disorganized or unclear. For example, you may see places where you repeat yourself unnecessarily; places where you leave out pertinent information; and places where a sentence or even an entire paragraph appear to be out-of-place.
