Your Study Plan for the Bar - Study, Sleep, Eat and Exercise Your Way to the Bar Exam

Today marks 62 days to the bar exam. Study, sleep, eat, and exercise. That is all you should do. The temptation to stray or take a few hours or few days off will be with you all summer. Birthdays and parties will continue throughout June and July; there may be weddings, graduations, and other very significant events. You will be tempted at every turn to allow distractions from studying. Well-meaning people who love you will say, "Oh but it's just one party, one night. You're studying all summer; you can take off this one night. It means so much to me...." Resist those voices. That same person who wants you to take time off will not be around or will not understand your devastation when you fail the bar exam.

Accept that you have two more months of study ahead of you. In the scheme of your lifetime, two months is not a lot of time to get yourself ready or to sacrifice to get yourself ready. It’s worth two months of your time to have a lifetime career as a lawyer.

It's all about getting yourself ready for the best performance of your life in July. In August you can make it up to everyone around you, but now just focus.
Happy Studying!!!
