For those who need a bit more time, you may want to consider starting to prepare for the July 2012 Bar Exam now. There are 3 weeks left in March, 12 weeks in April, May and June and then 3 weeks in July. If you are working and preparing for the Bar Exam, then you will benefit from a 16 week study schedule. The 18 weeks you have between now and the July Bar Exam provides you time to assemble your materials, draft your schedule and mentally prepare yourself, your family and your friends. The most important and challenging part of preparing for any Bar Exam is to minimize the distractions and there are many. If you are preparing for the California Bar Exam and plan to self-study you may want to check out www.beagoat.com It is a very helpful web site. I also encourage you to visit www.ncbex.org The National Conference of Bar Examiners writes the MBE, MPRE, MPT and MEE so it is a great resource to get copies of practice questions. Finally, the majority of your study time should be spent practicing exams and not just memorizing outlines.
Best of luck on the July 2012 Bar Exam!
