Synopsis

This new edition of Strategies and Tactics for the MBE is full of up-to-date advice on how to analyze Multistate Bar Exam (MBE) questions, including: details on how to handle each MBE subject; specific, step-by-step strategies for analyzing different question types; tips about how subtle differences in wording can completely change the meaning of an answer; and strategies for "rewording" questions in your mind to make them easier to analyze.

Strategies and Tactics for the MBE also contains a full-length, 200-question practice MBE exam, as well as more than 350 additional questions broken down by subject. Each subject begins with detailed advice on how to handle MBE questions on that subject and how to focus your studies on the most common and trickiest MBE topics. Every question has a fully explained answer that analyzes, in detail, every answer option. After all, it's just as important to know why you chose a wrong answer--and how to avoid doing it again!--as it is to know why the correct response was the best choice. Strategies & Tactics for the MBE will give you the skills to succeed...and the confidence to excel.

Why use Strategies & Tactics for the MBE?

• It covers all the new MBE specifications tested on the MBE as of February 2009
Every one of the more than 350 questions in this book represents an actual question asked on a past MBE.
It reflects the most recently released MBE questions and the most p-to-date substantive legal rules.
It assumes you haven't studied the substantive law required for the MBE since your first year of law school.
For instance, if an answer addresses the M'Naghten Rule or quantum Meruit or vested remainders, the answer will refresh your memory for what those concepts mean before it analyzes how they relate to the question.
It contains explanations in simple, easy-to-understand language rather than quoting long, convoluted passages of codes and treatises.
