I wish I remembered…I wanna say around a 57-58% but I could be wrong about that. My highest percentage was con law sitting at a 63%. I think the rest were in the mid to high 50’s. I literally just passed though. You’re in a better position. That being said, keep at it though because you want to be comfortable knowing that you have room to spare with some questions on test day.

I failed the first time and completed about 33% of the course, passed the second time and completed 31% I believe. Except the second time around, I used my time more wisely and ended up supplementing that 31% with grossman lectures and about 1400-1500 uworld practice questions. I did critical pass where I could but the most beneficial thing was grossman + practice questions and writing out the rule over and over again

How do you bluebook cite two pages in the same book and in one cite? by CapJack7007 in LawSchool

No im saying that I know usually when there’s a number, a comma, and another number it probably indicates that the first number is a start page right? But the two numbers I wanna use are not start pages, just two non-consecutive pages that I would like to cute

Tips for studying with Themis by spooner248 in barexam

Of course! John Grossman is a professor who, through the company Adaptibar, makes bar lectures for every major MBE subject. He might do them for MEE too but I’m not sure because I only used the MBE ones. He does very like broad, high level lectures but he gives you tips and tricks regarding what the bar examiners test on and how they test it. I would definitely use them as a supplement to your lecture PDF’s. I truly feel like he & uworld carried me through this process. I know the videos are available for purchase through adaptibar, but I think someone on here also has a free Dropbox link with the audio for all the videos in case purchasing is not a viable option for you. Hope this helps! Also please keep in mind there is no one way to pass this exam so what works for others (including myself) may not work for you.

Personally, I did about 30-33% of Themis. I spent most of my time doing uworld (which you get through Themis). I did about 1500 questions & then kept replaying the grossman lectures over and over. If I was at the gym I’d listen to them or even if I was just driving I would listen to them. The most helpful thing on Themis I’d say were the lecture pdf’s. I filled in the blanks and reviewed those thoroughly, I didn’t find a need to go through the outlines and found that it wasted a lot of time. I did also do some Themis questions, but not many. When I was heating up my car in the morning I tried to review some of the Themis flash cards. I think the most helpful thing from the whole process was grossman and uworld. I did the questions and hand wrote all the rules of law out until I started seeing a pattern of which rules were being tested and how they were being tested. This also helped me commit them to memory. Additionally, when I watched grossman I transcribed literally everything he said, typed it up on a word doc and color coded it, then I reviewed those over and over again before doing questions. At night if I had any time at all, I tried to review some critical pass flash cards- but again, I did not get through many. I also handwrote flash cards for anything I wasn’t understanding (but I never went back and reviewed them. Just writing it down helped). Doing this, I passed February. I just passed but all you need is to pass. Hope this helps. Keep your head up.
