My hourly rate is $150 an hour, and a half-hour consultation is $75. Usually my students and I discuss practice essays, but black letter law issues aren’t uncommon, and sometimes we discuss scheduling or other practical issues related to bar exam preparation. Another tutorial service I provide is individual critiques of practice essay writing. You can learn more about that service right here.

All of the prominent bar review courses and tutors advertise on this website. I encourage you to check them out. See what they’ll tell you for free. Judge how well-written and thoughtful their on-line materials are. Get a sense for who they are. There’s an art to working with a tutor. Even a brilliant, clever, humble guy like me isn’t the right choice for everybody.

In case you’re curious, I wrote a series of articles for Law.Com about taking the bar exam. You can read them, along with other material, at this link.

People who succeed on the bar examination tend to have certain qualities in common, in addition to passing scores. These include, inter alia:

  • Law Knowledge
  • English Reading & Writing Skills
  • Test-Taking Technique
  • Physical and Emotional Endurance
  • Luck

Test Taking Technique

It is amazing how many people fail bar exams because they spend too much time studying and not enough time practicing. (More)

Physical and Emotional Endurance

Preparing for and taking any bar examination takes a lot of strength. (More)
