The February 2015 Bar Exam: 4 days to the February 2015 Bar Exam: Essay Predictions

Sign up for our MBE Small Group One Day Workshop/Seminar in Naples and Miami at www.barprofessors.com.

It is now 4 days to the bar exam.

During this last week before the bar exam, I have many students ask me what my prediction is for exam subjects. Anyone who claims to predict what will be on the bar exam is just guessing. I remember one year, a lecturer on the bar exam circuit claimed that since trusts had been tested in the previous exam cycle, it would not be tested again and to forget about trusts. Unfortunately, many students took that advice and freaked when they opened the exam questions on the day of the bar exam and saw that the bar examiners did in fact test trusts twice in a row. This last bar cycle, a bar lecturer told his students that the Florida Board of Bar Examiners would not test Commercial Paper – and if, on the off chance they did, to just throw down the words “holder in due course”. Of course, this past July, commercial paper was on the exam.

These cautionary tales are meant to be what it is – do not endlessly search for predictions or to take anyone’s predictions as gospel. You have prepared for any eventuality – in any subject that is tested. Don’t try to second guess yourself and your preparation or to find a shortcut in your studies. This weekend, make sure you review every subject that is tested in your state. Only then will you be thoroughly prepared, with or without, any person’s prediction of what subjects will be tested on the essays.
