Struggling with the Multistate Essay Exam? Sign up for JD Advising’s MEE Seminar!

Our Multistate Essay Exam Seminar, which is being held on Friday, July 14 at 12:00 PM, will address the most highly-tested areas of law on the Multistate Essay Exam and provide you with the best review so that you can maximize your MEE score.  It will also include our predictions for the July 2017 exam.  For the last Multistate Essay Exam, we accurately covered over 70% of the subjects tested!

Students who sign up for the seminar will receive a handout of approximately forty-five pages. This handout includes a one-page to two-page summary of the highly tested issues on the MEE for every single topic: Agency, Partnership, Corporations & LLCs, Conflict of Laws, Domestic Relations, Secured Transaction, Trusts & Future Interests, and Decedent’s Estates, as well as all of the subjects that overlap with the MBE (Real Property, Evidence, Torts, Constitutional Law, Contracts & Sales, Criminal Law & Procedure, Civil Procedure).

The seminar provides students with MEE Tips and Tricks, including how to approach an MEE essay question, essay frequency charts from the past seven to ten years, tips for the last two weeks of bar exam preparation and an overview of recent cases and changes that could appear on the bar exam.

The following questions from the February 2017 Multistate Essay Exam were covered by the seminar and seminar handout:

  • Agency

    • We accurately predicted that a principal’s liability would be tested on the exam and told our students to study actual authority, apparent authority, and ratification.

  • Conflict of Laws

    • We accurately predicted that Conflict of Laws would be tested in a crossover essay with Family Law. Conflict of Laws had not been tested since July 2012. We told our students to study when a marriage will be recognized in another state (i.e., a marriage valid under the law of the place in which it was contracted will be valid elsewhere unless it violates a strong public policy of the state that has the most significant relationship to the spouses and marriage). Further, we noted that common law marriage does not violate the public policy of another state.

  • Family Law

    • We accurately predicted that Family Law would show up on the exam. Specifically, we told students to review the validity of a bigamous marriage (including the two marriage-saving doctrines for the new spouse), the elements of common law marriage, and the non-biological father’s right to a child.

  • Trusts

    • We accurately predicted that Trusts would appear on the exam. Particularly, we told students to study the cy pres doctrine if they saw a question concerning the amendment of a charitable trust. The cy pres doctrine is recognized under common law as well as the Uniform Trust Code. Additionally, we told our students to review pourover wills (wills that make a gift to a trust).

  • Real Property

    • We accurately predicted this subject would be tested.

  • Contracts and Sales

    • We told our students that if Contracts and Sales were to appear on the exam they should be familiar with offer, acceptance, and consideration. This is consistent with some of the issues tested on the contracts essay, include a firm offer by a non-merchant, what happens when an offer lapses, and promissory estoppel (a substitute for consideration).

  • Corporations

    • We told our students that if Corporations were to show up on the exam they should be familiar with the duty of care that directors owe to a corporation. Further, we told our students to review the elements that need to be satisfied in order to bring forth a derivative lawsuit (when a corporation suffers an injury).

Note: There is no guarantee that we will accurately cover the subjects on the upcoming bar exam.
