The Multistate Essay Examination ("MEE") is administered in Missouri. AmeriBar's MEE essay books contain the best resource for essay exam preparation - actual past MEE essay questions (over one hundred). Students are also provided with a model analysis for each question. One of the most effective ways to prepare for the MEE is to practice answering past essay questions. By reviewing past questions, students learn which issues are often tested, and how common issues should be resolved.

In addition to the MEE, the Missouri Bar Exam also generally consists of a set of essay questions drafted by the Missouri Examiners. AmeriBar's Missouri Essay Book contains the best resource for preparing for these Missouri essays - actual past essay questions. Each question also contains a sample answer.

As a result of a change to the scope of MEE testing, the MEE portion of the exam may now also test traditional MBE subjects. In order to assist students with essay questions testing MBE subjects, AmeriBar's course includes a book containing practice essay questions covering MBE subjects and sample answers. It also contains a limited number of released MEE questions testing traditional MBE subjects.

The strategy workshop is designed to teach students the strategies and techniques required to pass the exam. The workshop covers both study strategies and essay writing techniques. Learn how to use effective legal writing strategies to your advantage. The lectures help students utilize legal writing techniques to maximize points when drafting essay answers. The workshop covers everything from how to set up your study schedule, to what to do each day to prepare. They also contain strategy on how to prepare for and write a bar exam essay answer. The workshop has been prepared with the retaker in mind, but is incredibly useful for all examinees.

The course comes with online access to dozens of hours of online audio lectures covering all of the non-MBE subjects tested on the essay exam. As with the outlines, our subject lectures are designed to focus on what you need to know to pass the exam. Listen to samples of lectures and view pages from outlines.

The scope of the essay exam has recently changed. Don't worry, AmeriBar has it covered. Our materials are updated constantly and contain coverage of all testable subjects.

The MBE Course contains a 500 page outline book covering all six major topics tested on the MBE. This book has been specifically developed and updated to address the scope of testing of the MBE. We started with the scope of testability provided by the examiners and refined it with specialized knowledge of testing patterns. As with all of our materials, the focus of the outline book is on testability. It covers the concepts that you must know in order to pass the exam.

The lectures are available online, so they can be used at home, at work, or just about anywhere that you have an internet connection.

The MBE Course contains a practice question book with over 1400 released exam questions. It also includes a book with the answers and explanations for these questions. The questions include the most recently released MBE Annotated - a 100 question set covering all subjects on the exam. The questions in the Released Questions book are questions that have actually appeared on the MultiState Bar Examination. Because they are actual past questions, they are reflective of both the type of question you will face on the exam, as well as the issues you are likely to encounter.

For a limited time, students who enroll in the MBE Course (or Complete Course) will also receive access to AmeriBar's online MBE practice question website. The online questions can be accessed by a web browser anywhere an internet connection is available. Students can complete practice MBE questions online covering any of the MBE subjects, obtain automatic feedback regarding answers, and track their performance over multiple question sets. The databank contains all of the released questions in the Released Question book, as well as an additional 1000 practice questions. This $289 value is included absolutely free.

The MPT strategy workshop teaches students the strategies and techniques required to master the MPT. The workshop details the different types of MPT questions, including the difference between objective, persuasive, and fact-driven questions. We also provide a framework for answering these types of MPT questions. Students also receive a step-by-step process for answering any MPT question. The process assists students with one of the most difficult skills to master when taking the MPT - time management. The workshop also contains comprehensive analyses of three actual recent MPT Questions.

Students will also receive access to AmeriBar's online MPT released questions databank. MPT questions and point sheets are available in pdf format. When you have access to AmeriBar's MPT question databank, every MPT question ever released will be only a download away.

EMAIL TO AMERIBAR

We often receive emails from students who have used the course. Excerpts are found throughout our website. Here is on we received recently from a successful Missouri examinee.

I would like to express my appreciation to the writers, editors and staff of AmeriBar. I received word last Wednesday that I passed the Missouri bar. My story differs from the average test taker in that I . . . went to an international law school in South Korea.

Because of the school's location and recent founding (2002), it is yet to become ABA approved. Thus, graduates of the school can only sit for bar exams where a foreign equivalency review is permitted. Missouri is one of those states and by petition we received word that I would be permitted to sit for the bar. The good news came on July 5th, however, less than three weeks before the exam.

Soon thereafter, I ordered Ameribar's essay prep course. Because it takes more than two weeks to receive packages in Korea as other methods of delivery are prohibitively expensive for a poor law student, I sent my order to my hometown Miami, FL where I would arrive late at night on July 14th. Because of time constraints, I was unable to utilize anything but the law explanation and sample essay books, which I started on the 15th in conjunction with the PLI MBE book. In that short time, I was able to grasp enough knowledge and understanding to make a satisfactory showing on the bar. I am sure that my success was in part due to Ameribar's unique approach toward focusing on testable matters. Additionally, the starred portions helped me to recognize important principles and apply those on the exam.

In conclusion, please keep up the good work. I am going to write a report to my law school on my experience taking the bar (as it was a new jurisdiction for us) and I will be happy to share this information with them.

AmeriBar constantly monitors past bar exams questions and testing trends. Our materials are focused on testable points of law. Therefore, you will not waste hours of your study time learning extraneous information. Utilize your time efficiently.

Are you are a retaker who enrolled in a traditional bar review course the last time you sat for the exam, but were unsuccessful? It is likely that you spent too much time reviewing your knowledge of the law, and not enough time learning how to write essay answers or adequately prepare for the MBE. As such, it is likely that you studied inefficiently. Instead of spending dozens or even hundreds of hours listening to mind-numbing lectures of the law, learn how to spend your time efficiently learning the law you need to know in order to pass. In fact, one of our recent students who had previously unsuccessfully taken a traditional review course let us know that the best part of AmeriBar's program to him, was that he actually studied less and passed! Focus on the law you need to know, and spend the rest of your time learning how to apply your knowledge to the questions presented by the bar examiners.
