    Understand better what you're learning in Constitutional Law class and prepare effectively for exams by applying concepts as you learn them. This study guide includes over 150 multiple-choice and short-answer questions arranged topically for ease of use during the semester, plus an additional set of 40 questions comprising a comprehensive "practice exam."

    For each multiple-choice question, Professors McGreal and Eads provide a detailed answer that indicates which of four options is the best answer and explains thoroughly why that option is better than the other three options. Each short-answer question is designed to be answered in fifteen minutes or less. For these questions, Professors McGreal and Eads provide a thoughtful, comprehensive, yet brief model answer.

    Constitutional law undergoes periodic change. When those changes occur, Professors McGreal and Eads will add new questions and revise answers as necessary. The first update is available for downloading on the LexisNexis law school website at http://www.lexisnexis.com/lawschool/study/texts/.
