Why it’s important to only take the bar exam when you are ready
Why traditional bar exam preparation courses may not be enough for foreign-trained attorneys
What resources you can use to supplement traditional bar exam preparation and simplify your approach
The extra challenge of reading and writing in a foreign language, and how to handle it
Why you must learn to write in the style the bar graders expect
How to approach multiple-choice questions (hint: with TONS of strategic practice!)
Why you can’t ignore the performance test, and how best to approach it
