Has anyone used Rigos Primer Series for the MEE? (https://www.amazon.com/Rigos-Primer-Uni ... ywords=MEE)

Is it any good/worth the $90?

If not, are there any other good MEE supplements?

Not sure about the Rigos Primer Series, but you might want to take a look at JD Advising’s MEE One-Sheets! (http://www.excellenceinlawschool.com/ba ... ne-sheets/)

The Rigos Primer is great as a final study tool because of its mnemonics and "Magic Outlines". It really helped me to hammer down some parts of subjects I didn't quite understand.

I found out that my law school's library had it on reserve and used it during the last week or so to help with memorization because of the mnemonics and short outlines.

The rest of the book- not so helpful. There's a lot of other information in there that makes it seem overwhelming, but those outlines were really helpful in the critical last weeks before the exam.

I have lean-sheets and magic sheets, would you still recommend the book if you only found it useful for its summaries?

I also had lean sheets but I liked the outlines in Rigos better because I felt they were more concise and more geared towards memorization complete with mnemonics. It's really a personal preference. I would check the bookstores/libraries so you can take a look yourself before committing.

Does the book have useful essay writing tips?
