Add exam-focused attack outlines with issue-spotting triggers and pre-write templates
I love Quimbee and use it as my primary study platform. The outlines are great for learning the material during the semester, but they read like condensed textbooks and don't give students a practical framework for applying the law under exam conditions. I'd rather get everything I need from Quimbee instead of going to other platforms to fill gaps. LexPlug offers "attack sheets" for free (viewable on their site; only the PDF download is gated behind a subscription) that are structured around three components Quimbee outlines don't currently include: "When Triggered" sections that tell you exactly what fact pattern signals should make you reach for a particular doctrine. For example, their Torts attack sheet doesn't just explain battery; it starts with "When Triggered: A defendant makes physical contact with the plaintiff, or causes something to contact the plaintiff, without consent." This teaches issue-spotting, not just rule memorization. Numbered "Application Steps" that walk you through the analysis in order, telling you which sub-issues to check, which cases to apply at each step, and what to do if a particular element fails. This is the difference between knowing the law and knowing how to use it on an exam. "Pre-Write" templates that give you a word-for-word CREAC/IRAC paragraph with bracketed blanks to fill in from the fact pattern. Students can practice writing these out and then adapt them on exam day, which dramatically reduces the "blank page" problem during timed exams. They also include a quick reference checklist at the end of each attack sheet that functions as a master issue-spotter, listing every doctrine with its key triggers in a scannable format. Quimbee's outlines present the same doctrinal content in a traditional layout with headers, subheaders, and prose paragraphs. That works for semester learning, but it doesn't translate to exam performance. And Quimbee charges around $20 per outline PDF on top of the subscription, while LexPlug makes comparable content freely accessible on their website. That makes it hard to justify the extra cost when the exam-ready material is coming from somewhere else for free. Students need both: a learning outline (which Quimbee already does well) and an attack outline (which Quimbee doesn't offer yet). I'm requesting that Quimbee add a separate "Attack Outline" or "Exam Attack Sheet" for every subject Quimbee currently covers, not just 1L courses, that includes the trigger/steps/pre-write structure described above. Upper-level courses like Evidence, Con Law II, Family Law, Secured Transactions, and others would benefit just as much. This would keep students like me from needing to go elsewhere and would make Quimbee the complete study platform it's close to being.
