[blindLaw] Bar Prep Questions

[Julie A. Orozco]

Hi everyone,

I am currently making my way through the Barbri bar prep course in
preparation for taking the February bar exam. I have a couple
questions. First, did you find that the methods Barbri and other exam
courses recommended actually worked for you as a blind test taker? I
ask this because a lot of their recommendations rely on things like
skimming, circling and underlining important words, and reading things
in reverse order. I know we can take notes instead of underlining and
highlighting, and that is what I plan to do, particularly when
tackling essay  questions. But for the multiple choice, I'm feeling a
little reluctant to believe in their methods.

Did you find other methods that worked for you? I plan to take the
exam with Jaws on the computer and have extra time. I'm just not sure
how much weight to give to Barbri's methods.

I know we have a Zoom discussion coming up, and maybe this can be one
of the discussion topics.

Thanks,

Julie
