 Teaches how to structure an answer. October 15, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I took BarBri and PMBR. However, neither taught a SYSTEM for writing essay responses. So, I searched for a system and found this book. After practicing the author's "Under Here Therefor" method, and her question-outlining method, I felt much more prepared.
I just passed Nevada's bar exam...one of the more difficult exams. I used the system. I credit this book for making the exam manageable.
Spend the fifty bucks now, and avoid failing!

I found this lecture helpful. I think it confirms the point that the best answers are the simple straightforward answers on the bar exam. I believe it helped me pass.
 Good ideas - not geared for CA law July 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a good product, and gave good insights into how to write bar essays. It is not specifically geared to CA, which is fine if you aren't in CA. I learned some techniques and strategies that I have applied and improved my essays. It does not provide a lot of samples that I found helpful, but the instruction part is good.
Essay Prep for the Bar June 30, 2008

Very thorough well written exercise that helps prepare people for any bar exam question. I would recommend it for anyone taking the bar in any state. It covers several topics, and includes actual sample essays from a variety of states. THESE ARE ACTUAL BAR EXAM QUESTIONS THAT WERE USED ON PAST BAR EXAMS. No matter what state you are in, it will still be helpful. It is very beneficial to actually get hands on practice and write out the essays.

I thought this book was pretty useful. It was more effective for me to learn writing bar exam essays in this manner in comparison to BarBri.
