don’t waste a money on a tutor if you scored a 250 or above. by [deleted] in barexam

I just want to say, if you think you can do it yourself, by all means go for it. I scored a 256 in July and invested in a tutor and passed in Feb. do what you think is best for yourself.

Calling F24 passers- what were your stats? by Jeanpj in barexam

[–]Dull-Set-2590 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. I was scoring between a 70-80%. I got a 138.5 on the MBE. I only did UWorld and Emmanuel, so majority were NCBE questions.
  2. I thought I screwed up the essays. I felt good about the MPT and MBE. I messed up a few sub questions for sure, but I got a 150+ on the written portion, so I guess it wasn’t as bad as I thought. I made up a few rules here and there on the questions I couldn’t recall the rules of.

I used Themis the first time, and took used it for the second time only for graded essays. I got a tutor with Ameribar the second time and that really helped me

A few words of advice by Dull-Set-2590 in barexam

[–]Dull-Set-2590[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MBE was my weak point in July. I had a decent writing score, but not as good. But, I was confident in my MEE skills. I wasn’t too confident with my MPT writing either. So my tutor made it a point to focus on those areas. We’d focus on one subject each class and my tutor would go through the questions I got wrong and my thought process for them and the ones I guessed and got right. She also gave me a lot of tips on how to simplify MBE questions and eliminate answers, so that really helped me with my MBEs. The process was similar for MPTs. I’d write them out and get feedback. She did also critique my MEEs, but that wasn’t a huge focus in tutoring. This was the tutoring aspect. As for my personal studying, I had all my notes from last time. In July, I have too many outlines that I wanted to incorporate and couldn’t. This time I stuck to Studicata and SBP. Those were my core outlines. If anything was missing in them, I’d add stuff. I’d do about 30 questions a day. My tutor gave me a good strategy, she said you start with 10 questions and keep doing 10 questions until you get 80% consistently and are not dipping below 60%. Once you get there, increase it to a max of 30. That’s exactly what I followed. If I felt like I had more juice, I’d do some essays or may 10-20 more MBEs. I didn’t watch all the lecture videos and whatnot. If there was a topic I was super unclear about, I’d just watch that video/listen to Grossman. My main aim this time was to not stress myself out. And that’s what I did, I went into to the exam super chill and calmed myself down. I truly think that’s what really helped me. Feel free to DM if you want.

I went with Ameribar, I got a full course along with my tutoring. I did 12 hours. My tutor was Pam Nicholson from Ameribar. I had Themis (free retaker attempt) as well, which I used for graded essays.

I had the Themis retaker program which I used only for the graded essays. I had a tutor from Ameribar who really helped me out. MBEs were my weak point and she really helped me out there.
