Yeska has studied for many long hours to pass the exam and has used the following tips to ensure that he passes when the time comes:
Decide where and when you will study. Passing the exam takes many hours of preparation. Many law students and others who seek to pass the bar exam have to study thirty to forty hours per week to pass. In order to do this, you have to think of your study time as your job. Where will be your office, and when do you have to report to start studying to succeed. Whether you choose a library, your home office, a coffee shop, or the dining room table, show up every day at the same time to establish a routine that works for you to ensure that you put the necessary time in.
Create a study schedule. Determining when and where you will study is a part of creating a schedule. Don’t be afraid to modify your schedule when you need to. Some bar study courses set schedules for you, but you don’t necessarily have to follow that schedule blindly. Find a way to get the time in that works for you.
Take out any potential sources of stress. Studying for the bar exam will require many hours alone. Make the necessary preparations for this extended solitude. Talk to your friends and family about your need to study alone, pay your bills in advance, arrange for pet sitting or childcare. Do what you have to do before you start pouring your life into your study schedule so that you nip potential distractions and other problems in the bud.
Prepare to deal with anxiety. Getting anxious before the bar exam is natural for anyone planning to take the test. The bar exam is difficult and significant, after all. Find ways to channel that energy into productive study habits and don’t let yourself get bogged down by excessive anxiety that could cause you to lose focus.
