Need HELP on the essay portion of the UBE. Any advice?

Post by jessica213 » Wed Jan 04, 2017 1:04 pm

I failed the July 2016 UBE and plan to retake it in February. I actually did fine on the multiple choice portion, but I got killed on the essays. Any advice or study material recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

The person who wrote The Bar Exam is Easy recommends getting the official essay questions and answers from your jurisdiction for the past 10 years and doing all of them. Basically you can figure out the frequency that certain topics are tested. The book is free on Kindle Unlimited and takes about an hour to read, worth a read in my opinion. The old MEE questions from 2007-2011 are available for free on the NCBE site, they sell the more recent ones are $15-20 each.

I very much agree with the above comment. Absolutely look over the released MEE questions and answers released by the NCBE. Along with stusying your subject matter outlines, these prior questions provide you with what you need to excel on this part of the test.
