Panic After Barbri Simulated Final

Post by LSAT Taker » Mon Jul 14, 2014 6:22 pm

55/100. How is this even possible? During the three hours, I thought this was far easier than regular 18-question MPQs. Am I doomed? Already finished a six pack to stay sane.

The real thing is easier. Take a break... or take the day off if you finished a six pack and continue tomorrow.

The average person missed about 86 questions out of the 200 total.
Had you completed the other 100 its entirely within the realm of possibility that you would have finished average. Don't sweat it, get on the grind!

There is the simulated MBE in its own little book, another MBE that isn't computer-graded that is divided into an AM/PM session 100 questions each in the MBE book itself, and then there's the "simulated final exam" also in the MBE book that is out of 100 questions.

The simulated MBE was about ~114ish average, but the simulated final exam was 60 average. So you did slightly below average, but I don't think that's any reason to get too panicked. Some of those questions on that simulated final exam are just stupid, and as you should know by now, most people are prone to severe fluxes on a lot of that material.

Did anyone watch all the MBE final review lectures? Did you find it particularly helpful?
I'm about 2/3rds finished watching, only picked up a few nuggets, seems like a waste of precious time.

Got roughly 60 questions right and I'm fine with that on this test. It was clearly substantially more difficult than the actual bar exam questions and I improved from the simulated MBE so I'm calling it a win.

What "final review lectures?" If they refer to the SFE review lectures, you can do yourself a huge favor by just reading the written materials instead. I watched all 6 videos at the x2 speed, but regret that I did not ignore the whole series. If, however, you are talking about some other "final review lectures," I need to know where I can find them right now.

Yes I'm referring to the 6 Simulated Final Exam Analysis videos. I got up to Property before I decided to call it quits, they seem worthless.
