For those who must retake the bar exam in February
2016, today marks 8 weeks until the bar exam.
This must be the time to pick up your bar exam books and start studying
for a successful bar exam result. You have 2 months to get up off the floor,
find a new attitude and tell yourself you will pass this time around.
For repeat takers, if have taken the bar exam
multiple times and are still not getting the results you want, think about getting
an MBE Testing Institute’s professor. There is obviously something about the
way you study or how you study that is not producing results for you. An MBE
Testing Institute professor can set up a study plan with you, discuss areas of
the bar exam materials that you are not getting and keep you motivated and less
isolated.

Most law students fail the bar exam for three major
reasons:
1. They
revert back to bad writing habits developed in law school.
Under the pressures of the bar exam, many students
revert back to bad habits. These bad
habits allowed them to graduate from law school, but will be the kiss of death
on the bar. Some of the bad habits
include, not organizing your answer, no line by line analysis and not answering
the call of the question.
The MBE Testing Institute professors will assign you
essays and MBE and will correct the bad habits that prevent you from passing.
2. Poor
Preparation and Time Management
Many law students start their bar preparation
entirely too late, leaving most in a rush mode.
For the upcoming February 2016 bar, your preparation should start. You should allow yourself 5 to 6 hours per
day for studying. But more importantly,
studying correctly is the key. You need
to write and answer many essays and MBE questions. Your answers must be
evaluated by the MBE Testing Institute professors
The MBE Testing Institute professors will put you on
a schedule and monitor your progress.
3. They don’t
really believe that they will pass
You must have a belief that you will pass. Get rid of all negative thoughts, people and
things. You must truly believe that you
will pass. You must say this every
single day prior to the bar and you must have the confidence to succeed.
The MBE Testing Institute professors will help grow
your confidence and your belief that you will pass.

For those students who are taking the February 2016
bar exam, take a few days off to relax your mind and have quality time with
those that love you. Take the time off with no guilt attached. You can get back
to work full time after the holidays.
Those that really love you want to see you pass the
bar. Know that with certainty. Those who are pulling and picking at you, saying
you don’t have to study that long or want you to go to the clubs and parties
are not your true friends and do not want you to be successful.
Sometimes those loved ones see you study and see
your struggle and wish they could help you, but don’t know how. Bar applicants
who have children find it hard to be both a parent and have a full time study
plan. Don’t ignore them. Try to integrate them into your “experience”.
During these weeks of celebration for Hanukkah,
Christmas and New Years’, look at those that are supporting you in ways you may
not even realize. Maybe your mom makes you breakfast every morning before you
leave to go study. Maybe your spouse is doing the heavy lifting as you study.
Let them know you appreciate their support, even if they are just getting out
of your way during this period before the bar exam.
No person is an island. You need your family and
friends during this stressful period of bar exam studying. Have your family
help you. They will be glad to help and they will be proud of the little part
they played in your success. Give your family members or your children one of
your study books and have them test you. This is particularly good for the
elements of a cause of action. Have your family help you recite those causes of
action. See if you can make a game out of it, with your children or family
members each calling out an element of a cause of action.
You may be surprised on game day when you are
calling up the exceptions to the hearsay rule and you remember the face of your
loved ones yelling it out to you.
Have a terrific holiday. Rest, relax and then get
back to work. The February Bar Exam is right around the corner.

Christmas is on Friday, our families are making
plans for the holidays, we are doing our last minute shopping and making sure
we have our travel plans in place for visiting. Yet, you have the February 2016
bar exam right around the corner.
This is not the time to do round-the-clock studying.
You will not be able to keep up a schedule like that anyway and you shouldn’t
have to do it during this time of the year. But there are batches of time you
can take during these holidays so that you can keep up your schedule plan.
Don’t put the books away. If you are traveling by
plane or by train, you certainly can read your outlines instead of playing
games or watching movies on your computer or phone. If you are driving to your
destination, get some tapes and play them as you drive instead of listening to
music to pass the time. You can get an hour or two in for studying every day
while you are enjoying the holidays. Think about getting up an hour early while
everyone else is still asleep or go to bed an hour early and read your outlines
in bed before you sleep.
Also think about taking a few days off completely
from studying , i.e Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve– it will refresh your mind
and make you eager to get back to work after those breaks.
These study techniques will keep you focused on the
job ahead, but also allow you to take the remaining time off and relax with
your family. You know that your family will do anything to help you achieve
your goal, so let them fuss over you – you deserve it.

You must build a good, solid foundation of the black
letter law. In order to have a good foundation, you must review each bar exam
subject. Go through each subject, one by one and absorb each subject as best
you can. As you go through the subject, make sure you understand the basic law
before you move on.
To build a foundation of the law, you need to break
the subject areas into more manageable components. Break your subject into
topics. And go through the elements of the topics of each subject.
What I mean by that is to take a subject, like
Torts. Then break the Tort subject down to topics, i.e. Negligence. Do you know
all the elements of negligence? Do you know the elements of battery? You can
outline it and/or make sure you know it by heart before you move on. You can do
that memorization by reciting it or writing it down without looking at your
notes or outlines.
Once you feel you know that topic, do a few essay
questions and some MBE on that topic just so you know you have it.

The purpose of the bar exam is for the bar examiners
to determine if you are ready to be a lawyer. That’s why using lawyer-like
words will help you when you write.
I don’t mean for you to use legalisms or a lot of
“wherefor art thou” type of language. Instead use the verbs that lawyers use.
For example, don’t tell the bar examiners that the court will find the criminal
defendant innocent. A defendant is always found not guilty. When a plaintiff
prevails, don’t say that the plaintiff won the case. Instead of telling the bar
examiners that the court will reject the petition, tell the bar examiners that
the court will dismiss the petition. Instead of a party losing a venue issue,
for example, say that the party waived his right to it.
Also use “term of art” lawyer words. For example, one
of my pet peeves is when a law students doesn’t use the word pretermitted child
when discussing a child who was omitted from a will . Use words like elective
share when discussing what the spouse is entitled to in the will.
Your essay will be much better when you use language
that lawyers use.
Remember, write like a lawyer for your bar exam
essays and MPTs. Only then will the bar examiners know you are ready to
practice law.

Bar exams are creatures of habits. If you study your
bar exam you should have a pretty good idea of what you will see when you sit
for your bar exam in February 2016.
Look at past exams in your state. What is the
format? Is it a long fact pattern or a short fact pattern? Look at the call of
the question. What type is the call of question? Is it a generic type, i.e ,
talk about the issues that give you no clue as to the essay itself or is it a
two or three specific questions that you can answer, pointing the way to the
issues that the bar examiners want you to focus on?
Now, look at the subjects tested on your past exams.
Is there a pattern of frequently tested subjects? Are there 7 or 8 topics that
the bar examiners like more than others? This will enable you to practice those
frequently tested subjects.
By learning your bar exam, you will be better
prepared to face the unknown and you will not be surprised when you open your
exam booklet on the day of the bar exam.

Often in essay answers, I have seen students try to
impress the bar examiners with all of their knowledge, even if it doesn’t apply
to the specific call of the question.
The bar examiners don’t want a bunch of archane and
esoteric information that you know about a particular subject. Don’t tell the
bar examiners that the question is particularly interesting or that you know a
lot of the subject at hand. Don’t make jokes in your essay answer.
Time is of the essence. The bar examiners craft the
questions for the time allocated. They do not expect to see anything unrelated
to the specific s of the question.
I have seen essay answers that look panic-stricken
with a lot of useless information at the end of the answer, as if the student
is putting everything in the answer but the kitchen sink. These brain dumps do
nothing for you and will get you no extra points.
As boring as it sounds, answer the specific call of
the question only.

Essay writing is a skill that you must master in
order to pass the bar exam. For those persons who have failed the bar exam and
are repeat takers, you have to examine how you have answered your essays and
look for ways to improve your performance.
Many bar examiners write the bar exam as if the
essays are a first interview with a new client. Keep that in mind as you write
for an uninformed audience. Assume your audience knows nothing about the law.
For example, if the client says someone hit him, you want to explain to that
client why it is a battery and why the facts indicate it is a battery. You set
out the law and then you analyze the facts as it pertains to the law. A
knowledge of the substantive law is essential, as well as how you communicate
your analysis to your client.
A key to good communication is your organization. If
you are poorly organized, the bar examiner will find it hard to follow your
essay or to give you much needed points.
Make sure you practice writing essays. Essays will
become easier to write as you practice.
Also, remember that you must finish your essay in
the time allotted by your exam. You cannot get points if you do not complete
your essay.

Goal achievement is the key to studying for the bar
exam, especially if you are a repeat taker. You must keep your eye on your
ultimate goal – passing the bar exam, along with figuring out how best to get
to that ultimate goal of passing the bar exam.
How do you go about getting prepared for the bar
exam? Let’s look at your study goals. You need to accomplish two things: the
ultimate and overall goal, which is to pass the bar exam, and a day-to-day
goal, which is to work towards achieving your ultimate goal.
It is not only about setting your goals for success,
but also by developing the strategies to achieve the goal and then implementing
the strategies.
Implementing the strategies of passing the bar exam
include goals, each and every day that you must work on. We have discussed
employing a study plan. That study plan should include a goal each day – i.e.
working on the black letter law or working on improving your essays, MBEs or
MPTs. Make sure the goal is a realistic goal, but make sure that you are moving
forward each and every day.
Implementing your strategy includes working on your
weaknesses every day so that you can improve your performance when it comes
time to sit for your bar exam.
Remember that studying for the bar exam is a journey
that must be accomplished in incremental steps.

The MBE Testing Institute will begin the process of
discussing important topics to get you ready for the February 2016 bar exam.
Although this advice is mainly for repeat takers, our advice can be used for
those taking the bar exam for the first time.
Getting ready for the February 2016 bar exam is all
about preparation. Preparation includes your mental attitude as well as your
outward preparation. I often compare taking the bar exam to preparing for a
marathon. You cannot jump out of bed the morning of the marathon and think that
you will be able to run successfully, mile after mile, with no training. You
must prepare beforehand and you must get ready for your bar exam marathon.
Mentally, you must get yourself comfortable with the
idea that you will work every day and that, with proper preparation, you will
pass the examination. Winners know the value of preparation. The philosopher,
Confucius, once said that “success depends upon previous preparation, and
without such preparation, there is sure to be failure.”
Muhammad Ali, the champion boxer, said that “I hated
every minute of the training, but I said, “Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the
rest of your life as a champion.”
February 2016 will be your championship moment,
don’t let yourself down.

In order to pass the bar exam in February 2016, you
need two things: time-management and discipline. Planning ahead and sticking to
a schedule will conquer both requirements. Thorough preparation is the key to
passing the exam and having a schedule in place will allow you to manage your
time and to stick to a study timetable. For a plan to work, you have to address
your learning style as well as the substantive areas you will be tested on.
First make a calendar of the next 3 months – up to
the bar exam date in February 2015. Set out a timetable of when and where you
will study per day. Be sure your schedule is realistic. If you make it too
onerous, you will not follow the schedule and you will put off studying. Be
realistic with your goals and your study habits. For example, you can’t go
throughout the entire day with no lunch or no exercise or take no breaks
because you were unrealistic in the time aspect of your plan. You have to write
a study plan that suits you and your personality without slacking off.
In the beginning, you are going to struggle with the
voluminous materials, but keep at it and keep pushing the pace. It’s like
training for a race. You first have to struggle through the repetition until it
starts feeling right and you start performing at your optimal level.
For your schedule, you should first start with
relearning and reviewing the outlines with some practice questions thrown in
and as you pick up the pace, you’ll reverse it and do more practice questions
and essays and only use your outlines for clarification on questions you get
wrong or confused about.
Don’t ignore your weak areas or your strong areas.
You may not need to schedule as much time in your stronger subjects, but review
them as consistently as you do all the other subjects. You may not need to read
or reread the outlines of your strong subjects, but during those time periods,
practice your questions. You may need those extra points on the bar. For your
weaker subjects, don’t spend too much time obsessing on your lack of knowledge
or take away from other subjects you also need to study; and do not ignore your
weak subjects. All bar examinees have weak subjects. Again, spend time on those
subjects as you would other subjects and just keep practicing. You’ll be
surprised at how much you really do know in those weak subjects.
