I failed the july 07 Utah bar. Then a friend told me to get a tutor and practice the MPT's. I kept studying black letter law to keep my MBE and essays topics up, but I did many more MPT's then I had done the first time. I hired an attorney tutor who I met with once a week. We would go over my PT's from the previous week. She would focus on the tone of the PT (e.g. objective, subjective) and helped me work on organization. Plus she told me to use every FACT I could. That is where the points are! In UTah we get 4 essays and 1 PT in the morning and the same amount in the afternoon. There is no particular order and I choose to start with the PT's. I spent about 7 more minutes than I should have, on the PT's but I believe it was well worth it. I increased my essay's/PT score by 8 points and passed the bar! Practice MPT's! It is well worth it. I believe many people overlook them, but there are a lot of points to pick up in that section of the test. Good LUCK
