How many students should be in a law elective? Is there an ideal class size?
Law electives work well with a range of class sizes, but the ideal is typically 20–30 students. This size allows for four to six small groups to be formed for activities and smaller simulations like mini-moot courts. It also is large enough to fill all the positions needed for larger activities like mock trials, moot courts, town halls, and school board simulations.
