For example, CA had a defamation question in Feb. What are the chances that it repeats? Historically, has this been common? I don't think it has, which means, statistically, it may make sense to not focus (for essay purposes) on topics that were just tested the examination prior (except PR and ultra-narrow topics like Community Property, Agency, and Partnership).
Thoughts?

Don't want to shoot yourself in the foot. Beat the CBX by knowing the materials, not by trying to outsmart it
