cheaper than barbri. i just put my deposit down for the pa/nj bar exam prep.
go me.
How I did it: I failed the bar the first time I took it (2007), so I studied much harder and for longer this time. Despite the fact that I was working full time, I succeeded! Hooray!
Lessons & tips: Study. Hard. Write lots of essays!
Resources: Bar-bri

Hestia74 is in a state of thanksgiving...
My baby was born almost two months ago… and I still haven’t really started studying for this test. I have the materials to start right on my night stand, but somehow they get bypassed every day…
Time to recommit and focus on the big picture. It’s great that I can handle the baby day to day, but I want to get back on track with my studies, or I’ll be using my son as an excuse for not doing anything worthwhile for the rest of my life.
My plan is for work to slowdown for me and for my boss to cut down my hours within 6 weeks so that I can start restudying for the bar exam. I plan to set myself up for success for NJBE Feb 2010.
some friends of mine just took it. watching them undergo the pain of bar prep freaked me out. they implore me to start studying now and to take bar courses while i still can. i do not take their exhortations lightly.
i need to come up with a strategy.
work obligations caused me to bump this goal to Feb 2010. However, I’m working hard to line up the study time, leave, etc. to make this happen. I had memorized up to a 900 item outline, but I’ve slacked in reviewing. Time to get that started up again.

What can I say… the first time I took it I failed miserably… I confess that I didn’t prepare as I should have. I’m planning on taking the bar for the second time next March 2010… My baby is due three weeks before the next bar, so I won’t be ready to sit through a three-day long exam. But I’m preparing for next March.
I’m taking it for the second time…first time was in 2007 and it took me two years to recover! This better be the last time…
My application is almost done, for New Jersey Bar exam Feb 2008
I have a 750 line outline memorized. I have a subscription to adaptibar. And I have materials for each subject matter and on how to write essays. I’ll post the names of them here later. I’ll finish my application for the new jersey bar exam this week, although it may take me longer to get some driver’s abstracts (darn).
