The Bar Exam is the definition of a pressure-filled situation. Not to blow anything out of proportion, but the exam is the literal gateway to becoming an attorney. Students study for months, endure pressure from employers to pass, and don’t want to let anyone down. It’s easy to see why anxiety and emotions run high for students during the weeks leading up to the exam. Students are often provided strategies for dealing with exam anxiety leading up to the Bar Exam. However, one subject doesn’t get as much attention as the countless articles discussing strategies to combat anxiety before the exam. We’re talking about panic during the bar exam.
At first glance, the use of a multiple-choice test as part of the bar exam might seem odd. After all, law school exams are mostly in essay or short-answer format.

To help you avoid the biggest MBE mistakes, we’ve put together this list of tips.

Law school and the Socratic Method go hand-in-hand. The Socratic Method, commonly referred to as “cold calling,” dates back to Socrates. This method is based on asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking. You will not escape law school without a cold call and you should be prepared to be put on the spot. Professors often use this method for hypothetical applications of law or to review a case.
