How did your diagnostics compare to your actual performance?
So I'm in an "early start" bar prep class and we just received our first graded essay diagnostics. I didn't perform as well as I would have liked to and of course have already begun to panic. I know its going to be a long road, but I was just wondering if anyone had uplifting stories of out-performing their diagnostics. Its too early for me to be so frustrated already..

Like the LSAT, there are may trends and techniques that you will use to pass the bar exam. over time you will see trends in correct answer choices and how they reveal themselves in the question stem/ given facts of the exam.
Likewise, for the essay portion the style used to write the answer, explain the rules and apply them can also be broken down into skills. Especially on the MPT/ practical lawyering section.
Keep plugging away, and don't stress yourself out now.
