As a person who has experienced Fa Shuo, I would like to say a few words in combination with the consulting experience and legal work experience of Fa Shuo 10.
(1) The biggest feature of Fa Shuo's postgraduate entrance examination
As a newcomer to Fashuo, I should go to the personal website of Senior Li Zhiyong (me), that is, the preparation guidance column of Yongping Fashuo website, and take a closer look. Fa Shuo has a whole set of preparation and learning methods waiting for you to digest and absorb! Master of Laws (Illegal Studies) The Master of Laws course is a national examination paper for foreign languages and political adoption, just like other majors. Postgraduate English is the most difficult English (1), so everyone has no legal basis and is relatively fair. Therefore, the selection of books and preparation for the postgraduate entrance examination of Master of Laws has nothing to do with institutions (whether admitted to Peking University or Fuzhou University), and there is no need to find any tutor before the exam. The key is the individual!
(2) The method and skill of preparing for the exam by the master of law.
In the national entrance examination of French master, the candidates are all based on zero method, and the reference books and counseling materials used by everyone are actually similar, but why did nearly 90% of them fail in the end? Among them, learning method is the key. In this regard, I hope every LLM candidate can take some time to carefully read the series of LLM learning methods guidance articles that I have been summarizing, updating and perfecting since 2003 in the preparation guidance column of "Yongping LLM website", especially the 4.0 version of LLM books and materials list and how to use it, the 4.0 version of the 5-stage review method for Yongping LLM, the 7.0 version of the preparation advice for Yongping LLM 10 major, and the 7.0 version of LLM.
In addition, we must make an overall review plan with reference to the five-stage review method of Yongping Fashuo on my website, and handle the relationship between reading, doing problems and reciting laws and regulations. The total score of professional courses is set at least 220 points. As for whether to buy additional auxiliary materials such as Yongping Fashuo recording version 4.0 on my website, it depends on my personal situation.
(3) the book selection of the master of the preparation method.
The biggest feature of preparing for the Master of Laws is that there is only one book with the nature of "teaching material", which is referred to as the higher education version of the exam analysis (the NPC version of the Master of Laws guide is also acceptable, but the two books should not be compared one by one; In principle, there is no need to read undergraduate law textbooks), which covers all the contents of five professional courses (namely, professional basic course 398 and professional comprehensive course 498) and is the core and focus of the whole review. Almost all the work in each review stage revolves around how to thoroughly understand the Guide or Exam Analysis (including intensive practice and training), including what I often say, "Yongping's three magic weapons for preparing for the exam = the guide to the master (or exam analysis)+real questions (including cases)". As politics and English (1) are national unified examination papers, like other majors, the use of related books and materials has long been self-contained, and there are many related learning methods and suggestions on the Internet. Therefore, Yongping Fashuo website does not talk much about these two subjects, and there are only five guiding articles in "Political English".
For the selection of specific books and materials for the postgraduate entrance examination course of Master Fa, please read my guide column "List of Reference Books for Professional Courses of Master Fa in Yongping and Instructions for Use" (version 7.0). This paper introduces in detail what books and materials to choose, how to use them, how to identify them, publishing house, price, matters needing attention, purchase method and purchase time. There are thousands of words, so I won't copy them here-every LLM candidate must read them.
In short, a complete set of preparation materials for the professional courses of master of laws consists of "syllabus, teaching materials (guide or exam analysis), counseling books, exercise books (including unit questions, simulation questions, real questions over the years, case specific training, etc.). ) and a compilation of laws and regulations ",in line with your overall review plan-be sure to refer to the article" Yongping Master of Law Five-stage Review Method "on the website of Yongping Master of Law.
By the way: English must not be taken lightly (even for students in English classes). Yongping Master of Laws has students fail English subjects directly every year. Now, let's do the real English questions carefully, feel what it is like, and then prescribe the right medicine-don't wait, let alone just listen to others. Is it difficult or easy to be specific to yourself? What are your weaknesses (vocabulary or grammar or reading or writing)? How hard is it? Wait until you know what you should do next, how to do it, how to arrange your time, and how to coordinate with professional courses. Carry out my "Three Magic Weapons of Yongping Fashuo Postgraduate English = Outline Vocabulary+Historical Zhenti+Composition"!
(4) Selection and employment of LLM candidates.
Every time I give telephone guidance to the recording students of Yong Ping Fa Shuo, I will especially emphasize that the choice of a master of law school is closely related to Fa Shuo's employment prospects (similar to other majors). I have said many times: As a "big law major", Fa Shuo uses the contacts, resources and brands of the whole law school, all kinds of master of laws and the whole university. After 65,438+00 years of amateur consultation, I found that many LLM candidates have many misunderstandings in choosing schools, especially the geographical location and brand nature of schools, which are often ignored and misunderstood. Therefore, I hope that you must carefully read the school selection column and the guidance article of the employment column of the Master of Laws website of Yongping before choosing a school. In particular, the three-factor theory of Yong Ping Fa Shuo's employment (version 2.0) and the employment trend of 15 Master of Laws, such as "Three-factor theory of Yong Ping Fa Shuo's school selection" (version 4.0), "Senior Li Zhiyong's talk about the layout of law schools all over the country" (version10) and "I talk about the comparative analysis of the employment of Master of Laws and Master of Laws" (version 2.0). In fact, the scores of famous law schools of many famous schools are not high (especially some independent colleges). It is of course important to build up confidence, but it is more important to scientifically and rationally choose a master of laws institution that suits you (top and difficult institutions such as Tsinghua of Peking University, as well as the traditional four departments of the Fifth Academy, emerging law schools such as Fudan Jiaotong University in Tsinghua, and some 985 comprehensive universities of arts and sciences or science and engineering).
In addition, please do a good job in the three-year career planning of Master Fa, improve the competitiveness of employment, and implement the guiding articles of the employment column of Master Fa's website in Yongping. Li Zhiyong, a senior, talks about how to improve the employment competitiveness of Master of Law (version 3.0)-being admitted to Master of Law does not mean "a bright future", even in Tsinghua and Peking University-how fierce the employment competition is now and the competitive environment is not very fair and open-all these should be experienced, overcome and improved in practice! As we all know, there are four main destinations for LLM and LLM: civil servants, judicial personnel, corporate lawyers and law firms. In the end, what line you can go to and what level of unit you can go to depends on your strength and opportunity. If you still want to avoid employment and competition, then go to the doctor of law for further study-or really want to study the legal world in depth.
