 | what should I do 2 weeks before the bar exam? No, I do not want to pay for Barbri's Essay Advantage, and yes, I did study all subjects and practiced over 100 MBE questions.

| Re: what should I do 2 weeks before the bar exam? over 100 MBEs is really low. You should be banging out ALOT more of those over the next 2 weeks, and as the poster lawm lays out, you should be doing many practice essays and PTs. Luckily you still have time to do many more MBEs and essays and several PTS. So get started asap. That is the key to keeping your mind in "black letter mode" and being prepared to pull the knowledge out when you need it on the essays. Most students fail because they spend too much time reading outlines or re-writing outlines, etc. and not doing MBEs and practice essays and PTs. Take this message as a warning, and an opportunity since you still have 2 weeks or so.
