Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, in another episode from our "Quick Tips" series, we're talking about what seems to be everyone's biggest fear on the bar exam, and that's forgetting the law.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Effectively using all the facts you're given in the question
  • How to write a coherent and well-structured answer if you're not sure of the rules
  • Memorization techniques to help you remember the law
  • Identifying ahead of time what practice is effective in keeping you calm
