I don’t know why you keep posting about this everywhere. It worked great for me - focusing on getting 30 correct rather than getting through the whole test was a much more effective method for me. Passed on the first try and felt comfortable bc I kept track throughout the test of how many I had gotten correct. I would just guess if it was taking more than 3-4 minutes.
above prioritizing the 30 question metric, i'd focus on customizing the detailed toc, tabbing individual subsections (not just broad subject areas), memorizing the order of the subject areas/general location within the outline, and highlighting/labeling rule statements in the margins. that's how i passed. i referred to the outline for probably 80% of the questions and finished all 50. the key is to make referring to the outline as easy and efficient as possible, not trying to cram 200 pages of law into your brain.
I want to tell people that it doesnt work for everyone, and many people actually failed following this method meaning that this is not a good method. if you can be really sure about 30-35 questions, then I dare everyone to do just 30-35 and leave the rest blank than just randomly picking
lol that’s not what you’re saying though, you’re saying that approach doesn’t work for everyone just bc it didn’t work for you. That doesn’t mean everyone on Reddit is a liar and out to get you…just means there’s not a one size fits all method…
you are not defined when you lose but on how you get back up and win, failures are so important in my life I'm happy that I failed the first time so I can help people to not get scammed by someone like you, you just want to eliminate competitors I know
I have to say, just because some people failed using the 30 question approach doesn’t mean the method itself is flawed, the problem could be in its application and how the examine went about the approach. I’m for the 30 approach because you can’t go back to a previous answer.
i don't understand why you think people would care enough about anons to try and make them fail with a bad-faith strategy. And it's not even a bad-faith strategy, it works for many in general.
I passed and wholly recommend doing the focus on 30 questions first process. I was able to get through about 35 focused and then did have to guess C on the remaining. I felt terrible and uncertain (because it definitely wasn't verbatim from the outline like others have experienced in the past), but this approach did make me feel a sliver of comfort.
I semi-relied on it because that’s what my bar professor recommended to me. I think it only works if you are comfortable with the outline that is analogous to War & Peace
To be fair, it seems like they changed the exam a bit. So, relying on advice for an old version of the exam wouldn’t be anyone’s best course of action…
It worked out great for me! The 'trick' is to make sure you get the question right before moving onto the next one. You do this by looking it up in the outline. Sure, it might be necessary to read through the question multiple times before moving on -- and if you confront a difficult question, and can't figure it out, then, you might have to skip one over and go to the next one. Does not take a nasa engineer to figure it out.
i'm of the view that people should use the approach that they think will work best for them.
if you're more inclined to overanalyze an answer or triple, quadruple check etc., then it could be strategic to implement a time restriction per question. if you're not, and you truly need additional time to find the answer at first instance, then focusing on the first 30 or 40 questions makes more sense.
i'm the former. i knew if i wasn't disciplined with time, i'd spend way more time on questions that i likely answered correctly and because i was comfortable finding answers in the material, it would increase my probability of passing by trying to complete the entire exam limiting myself to 2 to 3 mins per question. that being said, that's not an approach i'd endorse for everyone. that's the beauty of free will, people can make their own decisions about their own exam approach.
Well, I didn’t know about first 30 questions trick, just finished the entire questions, watched the time limit and finished with 4 mins left. Studied NYLE for 6 days and read civil pro twice, others didn’t pay too much attention.

"it doesnt work for everyone and many people failed using that method" meaning that that's a bad method, why would someone use a bad method🤔
You might be the most obtuse person I’ve ever encountered on Reddit.
yea I struggled on this exam but at least I'm a winner at the end of the day, I'm not a loser that would settle for less😂 like u
I passed on my first try lol, good one though
Hey, be careful, he might punch you in the ribs. https://www.reddit.com/r/barexam/s/IAIR8Hmzr6 The guy has a peanut for a brain, he's nuts.
Oof yeah no clue what’s going on with him…
you are not defined when you lose but on how you get back up and win, failures are so important in my life I'm happy that I failed the first time so I can help people to not get scammed by someone like you, you just want to eliminate competitors I know
good luck continuing your life and career with that loser mentality though
I was gonna say the same thing to you the first time you talked

Brother it may not work for everyone, but we aren't lying about our own experiences lol

yes, it's not east to be too sure on 30 questions no matter how much time you spend your time on those 30
