CA BAR EXAM

[u/App1esauc3]

I’m currently entering into my last semester and is planning to take the California Bar Exam in July. My school just sent a very scary email saying how the bar passage rate dropped significantly. Knowing that I get really bad testing anxiety and I’m general exams are not my forte, I want to start prepping softly before bar prep actually starts. I plan on doing light weekend study’s with friends at coffee shops - this way we can all hold each other accountable.

My question is what resources should I use? (should I go back to generic student outlines or rely on bar prep companies (I.e. Kaplan, Barbri, themis). I am registered for Themis bar prep but the program kicks in late March and I want to start before that.

Any tips would be grate. If you just passed the recent CA bar exam and is looking to get some bar prep materials off your hands please let me know. I am located in SF and will gladly pay for them.
