You're smart enough to do it.

Yep, in the text -- it's quasi-closed book, meaning I can bring in the course text, but it cannot have notations other than highlighting and underlining (texts inspected at the door).

Do you know anyone else who has taken this class? Maybe they can tell you what kind of exan it will be. Just start skimming the book, looking over the basic ideas behind each chapter and reading the summaries. Try searching the internet for book reviews to help with the general thesis. That way you can turn to whichever chapter is needed when you come to a question and skim the specifics then.

One who procrastinates can still be smart enough. It's definitely a leak though.

Update 2
 

Ok, 2 hours after I started studying, and I'm over 25% through the course. I feel confident that I can be through the course by 4 am, and have enough time to sleep for 3 hours. It's all about the pacing.

wow, canadian law schools are hardcore.

Update 3
 

All right, so I'm about %60 done reviewing. I've recieved a minor setback, as my neighbours have turned their bad music up higher than ever before. They sense weakness.

I've also heard from others in my class that we are all equally screwed for this material. Given that the curve is a B, I might be ok.

I used to think I was king of this, but an entire class in one night? Damn. Wishing Diplo the absolute best.

Update 4
 

All right, I've read %100 of the materials distributed and have read two outlines from last year's course. I'm in semi-ok shape now, so long as he doesn't ask too many obscure things. Time for a short break, then do some policy work, then bed.
