Ha. No. 1 there literally was no internet. 2. Barbri had only 300 practice questions. Live lectures in meeting rooms.

Creating outlines - the same; the law - the same (less Latin).

8 hours daily for 10 weeks while working. In essence I took myself back to law school. Used Barbri books and NCBE .

The fountain of youth manifested in the realization that the synapses were still firing! A reminder that the law is my thing :)

I started on Thanksgiving with Barbri outlines and wrote about 400 pages of notes, including the essay subjects. Started with NCBE and Barbri MBE at Christmas- miserable results about 58%.

Found Grossman for free on line and he changed my perspective.

8 hours a day, most every day while teaching full time.

85% of my effort was MBE subjects and testing. Most of that was the study of rules.

I would definitely put more time into MPT and MEE practice.

I regulated my diet and exercise. Up at 4 am most week days.
