Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Last week we discussed the emotional fallout from a bar exam failure, and today, we're moving on to navigating the practical steps of retaking the exam.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The most common reasons people fail the bar
  • Analyzing why you failed and what you have to work on to succeed the next time
  • Exploring different study methods
  • When to start studying and how much study time to set aside
  • Thinking about whether you might need accommodations on the exam
  • Common questions and concerns when it comes to bar prep
