ICLS 2008 LL.B. Revision Weekend

I recently attended ICLS's review weekend with respect to my first year examinations for the University of London's LL.B. External Programme.

I feel that the review sessions provided me with an overall sense of much needed focus as I move into the final phase of my revision prior to the upcoming examinations.

Thank you ICLS for putting together such an invaluable review weekend."

"I just wanted to take a moment to thank you very much for your wonderful lectures in Toronto this weekend. You have made it much easier for me to begin revising for my examinations in June. I know that it must have been an exhausting weekend, and appreciate your efforts all the more! Your written material is excellent, and will assist me in organizing my studies. I hope to have the pleasure of participating in a weekend next year..."

ICLS Writing Workshop Equips Students

"I just wanted to say Thank You to you and your team for executing such a productive weekend... Saturday was very intensive and by the end of the writing session I felt confident in myself, as I learned the techniques only ICLS could have taught. I now know what the examiners are looking for and most of all I understand how to organize the vast information I have per subject. You were organized, enthusiastic and addressed relevant issues. I am looking forward to the March Seminar. Thank you once again."

According to George Pappas, ICLS Executive Director, "ICLS will provide expanded teaching without any additional cost to ICLS students. ICLS is going to do whatever it takes to increase the value of it's legal program. We're excited about supporting our online programme with brick and mortar learning. What's great about this development is that all ICLS students world wide will benefit since similarly registered ICLS students will receive the same review materials from the Toronto or New York City (or other location) seminars at no additional cost.
