What to include in a rec letter?

I am meeting with a professor on short notice who offered me a rec letter. He wants me to come in with 3-4 points I'd like him to touch on in the letter. Any ideas for what should be included?

@pstroud97 You might find the information available here to be useful: https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/lesson/how-to-get-the-best-letter-from-your-recommenders/. Tell the professor Why Law, what you think you want to get out of law school, and where you see yourself in 3-5 years. Remind him of your best work from class. Ideally he will write about what made you a strong student then and what will make you a strong student for law school. Good luck!
