Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! We've finally made it to the last few days before the bar exam in this incredibly challenging year! Today, we're talking about making the most of your final days of preparation, and we have some exam day tips as well.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Making sure the space you're taking the exam in is set up according to requirements
- Checking off the list of "don't's" for exam day
- Getting the testing software ready and practicing under exam conditions (Note that some jurisdictions have unexpectedly removed the ability to practice in exam conditions after we recorded this!)
- Thinking about how to recharge during the exam breaks
- What to do if something goes wrong
- Considerations for those planning to sit for the next MPRE
