Reading isn't where the semester gets lost. Remembering is.
Dictum builds the return to the material into the week — so nothing you read has to be learned twice.
Everything leads
to the outline..
The reading. The briefing. What you learn in class. It all has somewhere to go.
Build the outline as you learn the law—not at the end.
Week by week. Topic by topic. From day one.
READ → BRIEF → OUTLINE
One semester.
One system.
A semester is enough to manage at once.
Dictum gives it structure: set up the semester, run the week, and keep the work moving toward exams.
Then next semester, reset and run it again.
