Bar Bri Of Florida

Studying for a second Bar exam - Old Gold and Black Forums

I took Georgia in July of 2006 right after graduation and Florida in July of 2007 while working full time. I don't think I have any great insights, but FWIW, I barely studied at all for Florida. The second one is so much different than the first - there was so much less pressure and just having gone through it once before and knowing that I had definitely overstudied made it so much easier. I borrowed the FL BarBri materials from a friend who took FL in February 2007 and still had PMBR books with a whole lot of multistate questions I hadn't done yet. I studied for about 2 weeks. I read through all of the outlines once, re-read a couple of subjects that were guaranteed to be tested (FL Civ and Crim Pro), things I knew nothing about at all (FL Con Law), and things showed up on the exam more often than not (Biz Orgs, Wills, and Trusts (even though I do wills and trusts for a living) twice. I did about 30-40 practice MBE questions per day for those 2 weeks. All of this was done either during lunch, at home at night, or on the weekend, except for the Thursday and Friday the week before hand (my boss let me hole up in my office and focus on the exam for those two days).
