"Students may have many reasons to take a course in Remedies. In places such as California, for example, Remedies is heavily tested on the bar exam, and many students feel obligated to take a "bar course." Even in states that do not test Remedies independently on the bar, it is a good bar preparation course because much material from the first year of law school-particularly from Constitutional Law, Contracts, Property, and Torts-gets covered, albeit from a different angle. Other students may take Remedies because they like the instructor teaching it, or because it fits into their schedule. I have run into very few students (though there are some) who take Remedies out of an intrinsic interest in the subject"--

Baxendale; State Farm v. Campbell; Sullivan v. O'Connor), provides detailed coverage of the draft Restatement (Third) of Restitution, and gives detailed analyses of remedies issues under Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code
