5.0 out of 5 starsTHIS is the book to use10 Mar 2006
By A. Dunning - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I recently used this book to prepare for New York's bar exam essays. This book gives you a viable succinct format for writing bar exam essays. I took the BarBri workshop and this book was far more useful. It has many practice questions and essays (includes most states). For those of us who do not have the luxury of time to spend in endless workshops, this book allows you to learn the methodology at your own pace, and practice, practice, practice. Definitely worth every penny of the price.

3.0 out of 5 starsGood ideas - not geared for CA law19 July 2008
By Jill Dinsmore - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a good product, and gave good insights into how to write bar essays. It is not specifically geared to CA, which is fine if you aren't in CA. I learned some techniques and strategies that I have applied and improved my essays. It does not provide a lot of samples that I found helpful, but the instruction part is good.

5.0 out of 5 starsTeaches how to structure an answer.15 Oct 2008
By P. Graves - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I took BarBri and PMBR. However, neither taught a SYSTEM for writing essay responses. So, I searched for a system and found this book. After practicing the author's "Under Here Therefor" method, and her question-outlining method, I felt much more prepared.
I just passed Nevada's bar exam...one of the more difficult exams. I used the system. I credit this book for making the exam manageable.
