UBE Essay Frequency Chart: Which subjects are tested frequently on the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE)? To be the most efficient when you study, you will want to study the subjects that you are most likely to see. Below we reveal the highly tested subjects on both the Multistate Essay Exam (MEE) as well as the Multistate Bar Exam (MBE).
Note: As we explain below, even if you are taking the exam in a jurisdiction that is not a Uniform Bar Exam jurisdiction but that contains the MEE as a component, it is wiser to look at this UBE essay frequency chart than it is to look at an MEE frequency chart. (The UBE essay frequency chart is more indicative of what could be tested on your exam!)
Lastly, if you are interested in the MEE topics that have been tested most frequently, please review our free MEE guide for the highly tested topics and don’t miss out on our MEE One-Sheets. They are one of our most highly-rated products! Read more

It happens to everyone: you keep meaning to study, and you just never get around to it. Things pop up in your life: work, relationships, family issues. And for you, it happened before the LSAT! While it’s ideal to be as prepared as possible to take the test, we do have some LSAT tips for procrastinators below! They are applicable to those who have studied, or haven’t studied enough!
You may be wondering what the highly tested areas of law on the MBE (Multistate Bar Exam) are. It is worth it to be aware of the highly tested areas of law on the MBE because these are the most worth your time to know well! (This is especially the case if you are reading this about 30 days before the bar exam!)
If you have a half-day to review Torts, for example, it is much better to spend your time on negligence than, say, privacy torts or defamation. Because negligence will compose half of the 25 torts questions! It is also highly tested on most essay exams. Read more

Law School Time Savers – What Works and What Doesn’t: The amount of work that is assigned in law school can seem overwhelming. It is important to develop study habits that save time while also help you learn all the necessary material. There are a lot of short cuts out there, but while some might help you get through the work quicker, they won’t put you in the best position to get the grades you want on the exam. So which time savers work, and which ones don’t?
Advice For Cramming for the MPRE: You did not mean to do it, but you did it. The MPRE is just a few days (or few hours!) away and you need to cram. How do you spend your valuable time? While it is never ideal to be in this situation, it happens. These are our tips for cramming for the MPRE!
How Long Should I Study For The MPRE?: Contrary to what you may hear, the MPRE is not “easy”! So you want to study for it! (Or, if you decide not to, you should be okay with taking it more than once!)
There has been a lot of disappointment (bordering on anger) in the legal community regarding the recent Michigan bar exam appeals passage rate. You can see for yourself by the chart above (and the numbers below) that the appeals passage rate has been on a steady decline:
Many students compensate for the stress of the LSAT by taking as many previous LSATs as possible. We think this is a great technique! However, there actually is a point of diminishing returns when taking previous LSAT questions. Below, we discuss why your LSAT prep should focus on new LSAT questions.
I Didn’t Do Well My First Semester Of Law School. What Should I Do?: So you didn’t do well in your first semester of law school? That’s okay! Think of law school as a marathon, not a sprint. No one expects you to practice like a seasoned attorney after one semester. You still have plenty of time to develop and hone the skills necessary to succeed in the legal field, and thus you should not panic if you feel you’ve fallen behind your peers. However, you should use this first semester as a learning experience and evaluate what went wrong so that you can make changes for the upcoming semesters.
The format and pressures of law school are very different than what most experience as an undergraduate. It is completely normal to need some time to adjust. Success in law school can be heavily tied to the strength of one’s outlining skills, reviewing skills, and discipline to practice exams, but unfortunately many come in to law school completely unsure how to succeed.
