"just study the way you always have! you know yourself best so do what works for you!"

Idk about anyone else but this advice is absurdly common and I just don't get it. I did the typical polisci undergrad --> law school thing and none of my undergrad classes were anything like this. All of them were graded based on multiple assigned papers, not a single five-hour closed exam. I can poop out a paper no problem, but I have never really studied for anything in my life. I barely even studied for the LSAT. Am I missing something? It's honestly worsening my imposter syndrome because I feel like there's some secret skill I'm supposed to have that I just don't.

*more of a rant than anything else tbh*
