patent examination: patent law in plain english

This is ridiculous.

I’ve been studying for the patent agent exam for a few months, and have just finished doing a once-over on just about everything.

It is  a mess of poorly written literature.  It sucks.

Now, as I go through my second pass of studying, I’m going to take what I consider to be key nuggets, and spell them out in plain english.

As I write the posts, I’ll list them here. Stay tuned.
