Description
If you are frustrated by getting low scores on the Performance Test portion of the Bar exam or on practice essays, this course is for you. I will teach you the step-by-step, no-nonsense formula for attacking the Performance Test. There IS a formula, and you're about to learn it.
This course contains a ton of tips and insights into the most important exam you'll ever take as a legal professional. Sure, you know about IRAC, but there is a formula for passing the Performance Test, and that is why this course is called a passport: it will get you directly where need need to go.
There is also a practice Performance Test (a.k.a. homework) so that you can put your new-found knowledge to the test. I will take you through the homework bit by bit... after you finish it, of course, because that is the best way for you to learn. Finally, I provide a full mark-up of the sample answer so that you can compare it to your own.
The Bar is often an anxiety-producing experience. Most people who fail do so on the written portions of the exam, not the multiple choice (for those states that have the multiple choice). Take control of your Performance Test by learning how to get the most points and how to attack it the "right" way, which boils down to how the Bar examiners want to see your organization and analysis.
Who Should Attend!
- This is for anybody in the United States who is taking a Bar exam that has a Performance Test component--whether it's your first time or whether you're a re-taker.
- This is NOT for learning the law (you have Bar prep for that); it's for learning how to convert your knowledge and analysis skills in a way that matters for the Bar examiners.
- This course is for anyone wanting to understand how to write the "right" way for the Bar's Performance Test.
- This course will help Bar candidates who are taking any Bar prep course and getting low scores on their practice essays without understanding why. If you're frustrated by your Bar prep grader giving you a crappy grade and then writing "analysis" or "more analysis" on your exam, this course is for you.
- This course will help reduce the amount of overwhelming or trivial advise that you may be receiving from your current Bar prep course; this course is straight-forward.
