79 days till the bar – 4 of 6 subjects preliminarily done

Finished Real Property/Future Interests yesterday and started Evidence… I spent a long time on Property, as there is a lot there… I spent a good amount of time in the long outline books as well reading about mortgages and Future Interests, and the RAP. So, I probably spent more time than I needed to, but I feel like I have a good grasp of Property now, so I think it was time well spent. Moving onto evidence, I will probably spend a decent amount of time on this subject as well because it’s so rule-based and I think if one can just brute force memorize as much of the FRE as possible, success on the MBE should follow… My goal is still to finish this initial effort of all 6 subjects by this Friday… I’m traveling on business 3 days this week, but I’ll be studying on the plane, etc…

I’ve been making about 50 flashcards per subject so far… A good start… Once I finish this preliminary effort I think I’ll do the PMBR red book questions, setting a minimum of 50 per day, max of 100 per day. Probably do that for a few weeks, then in early January take a simulated MBE (probably the barbri one), and go back to PMBR red book questions for another few weeks, and repeat…

I really wish there was a source of sample questions out there that was newer and more reflective of the new styl e of MBE questions… The PMBR and BarBri questions do not appear to have been changed AT ALL in the past 5 years :-\
