Law
Law school flashcards that keep the wording of your course
In law the exact words matter. FlashCardz writes cards from your own casebook, outlines and lecture notes, keeps your course's wording, and links each card to the page you'd cite.
What law students need to remember
- The elements of an offence, a tort or a contract term, in order.
- The tests courts apply, and the cases that set them.
- Definitions, word for word, where the wording decides the answer.
- Articles and sections, and what each one says.
None of that is hard to understand. It's hard to keep all of it ready at once, which is what spaced repetition is for.
Your course's version of the law
A general chatbot answers from everything it has read, across many countries and years. Your exam marks the law as your course teaches it. FlashCardz works only from your material, so it works for your jurisdiction, whether that's English, EU, Romanian, Spanish or German law, and in your course's language.
From rules to application
Knowing a rule isn't the same as using it. FlashCardz asks about each idea from several angles: state the rule, list its elements, contrast it with the doctrine it's confused with, and apply it to a short set of facts. That's closer to what an exam question asks.
Turning a case into cards
A case is several things to remember, so it becomes several cards, each small enough to answer from memory:
- The facts that mattered: what happened, in a sentence or two.
- The question the court had to answer.
- The holding: what the court decided.
- The reasoning, or the test it set, which is what you'll apply to new facts in the exam.
Cases that are easy to mix up get a card of their own that asks how they differ. Statutes work the same way: what a section says, what each element means, and which facts would meet it.
Every card shows its source
Each card quotes the line it came from and links to the page, so when you're unsure whether a case said “reasonable” or “reasonably foreseeable”, you can check in one tap.
Ready on exam day
Set the exam date for each course and the nearest one comes first. Spaced repetition spreads the reviews out so the rules are there when you need them, not just the night you read them.
Questions
Does FlashCardz know the law of my country?
It doesn't need to: it writes cards only from the material you add, so it follows your course and your jurisdiction.
Can I make cards from my own outline?
Yes. Add your outline or notes as a PDF or Word file, or write cards yourself in the card maker beside the page.
Which languages does it work in?
Cards are written in the language of your material, so a Romanian, Spanish or German law course gets cards in that language.
