Hi all,
I previously took and passed the Texas Bar using Themis. I'm taking the Feb 2016 Pennsylvania Bar, only this time I'm self studying. I'm looking for some tips on how best to approach the PA bar, specifically the essay portion (I'm not sweating the MBE at all). What topics should I spend the most time on? What would be a waste of time? Does the PA Bar do a crazy amount of repeats of past essay questions like Texas does? Where is the best place to look for sample essay questions and answers? Would anyone be willing to share any of their past study materials/outlines? Any help is appreciated!

Re: Pennsylvania Bar Exam Help/Advice 2016
All the big subjects are tested, Torts, Contracts, Property/Trusts/Estates. They usually throw in smaller subsets with family law and tax. That's a largely unhelpful answer, hah.

That link contains actual essay q's for the past three years along with sample answers. That'll probably be your best bet.
