Tips on How to Prepare for the BAR Exam 1 Year, 7 Months ago Karma: 0  
Law school is very challenging. If you have managed to finish law school unscathed, then congratulations are certainly in store. However, you have to remember that you have not yet crossed the finish line. You still have to face another challenge -- the BAR exam. The BAR exam is not easy. The exam is basically taking all of your years of learning in law school compressed into a single day or two. This means that the exam somehow manages to include all of the things you have learned in your years of going to law school. The series of exams includes both a multiple choice and essay section. Read this article and get ideas on how should you prepare yourself for the BAR exam.

Apply For The BAR Exam Very Early

You have to submit your application form for the exam as early as possible. In this way, you can still make corrections if there are any errors in your application form. Applying very early will also give you more time to visit the venue of the examination. By visiting the venue, you won't feel very nervous during the actual examination since you’ll have already familiarized yourself with the surrounding.

Take Review Courses

BAR review courses are necessary to get a better idea of how to go about passing the examinations. Make sure that you opt for a review center that has an excellent track record. An excellent review center is a bit expensive, but it is usually really worth the extra cost.

You have to take the BAR examination seriously. Just imagine all of the studying and anxiousness you’ve endured during your pre-law and law school years. If you want your efforts to pay off, make sure that you start your preparation as early as possible. Right after graduation, cut down your time with friends and spend as much time as possible reviewing for the BAR. In this way you can increase your chances for success when taking the BAR.

Dear Alex,

While I agree that for the majority of students an excellent review center outweighs the cost, it did not for me as I ended up failing the bar on three consecutive tries. I am now using Tony Breeden's attack sheets and I am finding it much easier to master the same material I was exposed to while taking more expensive preparatory courses such as the Barbri. Have you been exposed to the attack sheets and if so would you recommend them for further use?

Are the attack sheets only for people taking the CA bar exam?
