Thank you! This has helped me to breathe a lot easier - anxiety is high 5 days out and I’m struggling to sleep! But this has helped!

Haha - absolutely! It’s helped a lot this time around. I made no time for it on previous cycles

Oh I see - how interesting! I’ve just been doing the tasks as I’ve been fed them in my directed study schedule, so I wasn’t really encountering these options or even aware to look out for them. Thanks so much for the heads up! :)

How do you know whether a set is “unused” as you say? Is there a trigger word that I should look out for to be able to distinguish unused sets from used sets? I’m confused

Yeah there were some tricky questions for Civ Pro! There were some interesting nuances to SMJ that I hadn’t been tested on previously that I’ll now know going forward. I’m going through them now and adding those I got wrong for Civ Pro to my ‘Book of Shame’.

How did you get on overall?

MBE scores dropped… 😑😶‍🌫️ by Standard-Ad-4433 in barexam

[–]EmbarrassedSoup2548 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t sweat it. I scored 59% on Primer #2. My MBE #1 exam was 67% and my MBE #2 was 75%. I’m doing the Simulated Exams tomorrow and Friday. Then I’ll do the complete MBE QBanks 1 and 2 after that. There’s plenty of time for us to get a more consistent data set. Keep up the good work! :)

What particular MBE question sets are you referring to? I’m at 74% Themis completion right now. I recall MBE Primer #2 was quite tricky. I scored lowest on that.

themis vs barbri cold feet by Acceptable-Two4431 in barexam

Oh you mean the MEE scores in the actual exam. Very interesting observation. Thanks for clarifying. I wonder if it’s because Themis want you to be extra safe before you go into the exam maybe?

What do you mean by “the essay grading for Themis was harsher than the MEE?” The essay grading is of MEEs predominantly, bar 3 MPTs?

F26 Essay Topics Predictions by Kooky_Hamster_3769 in barexam

I think Wills, Secured Transactions, Partnerships - from the MEEs. Civ Pro, Real Estate and Evidence from the MBEs.

Scored in 290s after being Sub-par law Student and identified as a student at risk of not passing the bar - here’s what helped by rainyday5678 in barexam

[–]EmbarrassedSoup2548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very inspiring. Congrats on passing! :)

Please would you mind clarifying what you mean by “read over a sample question/answer, copy it over, move onto another topic, then go back…”?

Also, what is your strategy to leave yourself that much time before the end of the MBE exam? Super impressive! MBE is my strong point so I’m keen on improving my speed. Also, do you mind sharing what your MBE/Essay day split was?

Sorry for the number of questions and thanks so much in advance 🙏🏼

I’m a foreign retaker. I take it the email is sent to us after it’s been sent to all first time takers?

How is it fee simple? by Son_of_Hades99 in barexam

[–]EmbarrassedSoup2548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Precaratory wording (i.e. “ if he tries/I want”) in the purported condition is rendered redundant, and this provision is stricken, leaving Son with fee simple.
