“After not passing the 1st time, I wanted more straight practice (no lectures, etc.). Studying with Steve was focused. For essays, Steve’s method is succinct, straightforward, and exactly what bar examiners need to see. No matter how good a writer I thought I was – for the bar I could not manage my writing time well. But Steve had me fashioning essays the same way each time so that it became habit. On this past July 2015 Bar, I felt 2 essays didn’t go well – and they probably didn’t – but I think I passed because his method helped with all other essays, even bad ones. Also a big part of my passing had to come from MBE practice; Steve drills you on countless Adaptibar questions and for the July Bar, all the questions looked like what I’d studied. Steve won’t mince words when telling you what you’re doing wrong – but it’s not personal – it’s for what the bar examiners need to see.”
