How to turn this subject into cards
Make one note per rule, such as relevance, hearsay or privilege, with its test and its exceptions. Quiz yourself on the exception list, because that is where exams look. The trap is knowing the general exclusion without the many exceptions. Lumi helps you retain tests, definitions and exceptions.
