Different Ways to Think About Studying for the Bar
(real advice given by real, live attorneys)
* Consider your studying a guided meditation. (I had a hard time really understanding this one.)
* Consider it boot camp: study for 3 hours without getting up, take an hour break, then study for 3 more hours. This will help train your body and give you the stamina you need on test days.
* Consider it the last test of your life.
* Make a chart and plot out how you will spend the next 20 days, hour by hour. Stick to it.
* Consider how hard you have worked in law school over the last three (or four) years. Remember that you have earned the privilege to sit for the bar. Remember that it *is* a privilege. Make yourself proud. (I think this last one is my current favorite.)
