When you exclude holidays, there’s probably only about 60 days of studying left… If I get in 5 hours a day, that’s 300 hours…. It’s gonna be a photo finish :-)
I finished all 300 earlybird PMBR questions from all 6 MBE subjects, as well as read the strategies and tactics for all 6 subjects plus listened to all 32 PMBR MBE CDs I also made about 150 flash cards for questions I got wrong (yes, I averaged about 50% correct on the PMBR questions). So anyway, I feel like I’m ready to really start studying now… The plan is to do PMBR red book questions every day, along with flashcard review and make more flashcards for wrong answers. I also plan to continue to listen to the PMBR CDs whenever I have free time or am in my car, and also to continue to review the strategies and tactics book as much as possible.
Finally, I have set a date of mid-January to begin studying the MEE subjects… I wish I had audio lectures for those subjects: Trusts and Estates , Business Associations, Federal Civ Pro, Uniform Commercial Code, Family Law, and Conflict of Laws. But I’ll just stick with the written materials I have for them… Since they are essay only, and won’t be tested on the MBE, I am hoping I won’t need to have such an in-depth knowledge of those subjects. (i.e. – No need for fine-line distinctions on the MEE)
I still don’t feel anywhere close to ready for the exam, but hopefully when the time comes, I’ll be 300 hours further in my studies… Next milestone is to take a 100-question practice MBE in between Christmas and New Year’s and do well on it…
