Bar Exam Tips & Secrets

by Ralph A. Sarmiento

Practice, Practice, Practice.

The problem with many Bar takers is that they think they can hurdle the Bar Exam by simply attending Bar Reviews, listening to lecturers, and reading their materials. Well, that is a good way to prepare if the Bar Exam were only an exam on reading comprehension and listening. But the Bar Exam is more than that – it is an essay exam! Even objective-type questions, like those asking for definitions, distinctions, or enumerations are all to be answered in essay form. Hence, there is only one effective way to prepare, that is, practice writing essays, good essays. 

The technique, therefore, is to acquire legal knowledge by listening to good review lectures and by studying your materials and then spend time to practice applying that legal knowledge by writing good essays.
