Date: June 11th, 2013 3:20 PM Author: Boyish heaven chad And how many hours a day are you doing this shit (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2279002&forum_id=2#23373757) |
Date: June 11th, 2013 3:29 PM Author: Maroon Juggernaut Legend 20% but that's mostly because i do the AMP things without any review, so i have those checked off for the most part. Can't tell if they are helpful at all since they focus on really odd/insignificant areas of the law tested.
do around 4 hours a day, usually from 4 pm - 8 pm. Haven't been doing much of anything on weekend except playing golf.
didn't do that graded essay assignment. Really waiting for late june/july to kick it up to 7 hours day. I just can't do this everyday for 2 months without getting burnt out, and the lecture videos are fucking PAINFUL |

Date: June 11th, 2013 3:34 PM Author: Boyish heaven chad Are you completely skipping the lectures?
Most of the lectures take 3-3.5 hours at least. |
|
Date: June 11th, 2013 3:36 PM Author: Maroon Juggernaut Legend some i've been skipping completely, but most of the time i'll start the lecture and just get to frustrated with it and turn it off. on days i do watch the entire lecture that's usually all i'll do, which is why watching the lectures probably hurts me more than helps me. i hate that barbri and things like it exist at all. i really need to figure out how im going to attack this bitch going forward.
the worst thing about the videos is that when I watch them it's only because I don't want to do actual work and actually learn the shit. The videos allow me to be lazy and still feel like i'm doing something |

Date: June 11th, 2013 3:48 PM Author: Boyish heaven chad Yea ive found similar shit for myself. If I watch an entire lecture and pay attention the whole time, it pretty much torpedos the rest of my day. I rush through questions, etc and dont care as much about learning wrong (and right) answers. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2279002&forum_id=2#23373925) |

Date: June 11th, 2013 4:01 PM Author: Maroon Juggernaut Legend had i done all the AMPs up to this point it'd be exactly 20%, fwiw. that being said, i havent done them all, but i have checked off some videos and question sets.

Date: June 11th, 2013 4:04 PM Author: Godawful dilemma Makes sense. I have done roughly 10-15% of the assigned AMPs but have done everything else, putting me at 15% overall. I don't like doing the AMPs before i start studying that topic so I have neglected them. I learn better staring at the outlines and memorizing.

Date: June 11th, 2013 4:05 PM Author: Maroon Juggernaut Legend i think that's the credited method, brother. I did that for ConLaw, then i got lazy. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2279002&forum_id=2#23374022) |

Date: June 11th, 2013 4:40 PM Author: cream gunner liquid oxygen titcr... lol at the people who feel like they are "studying their hardest!" by watching the lectures half-asleep everyday and calling it 3.5 hours of studying. One hour of outline cramming easily surpasses the value of sitting through one of those fuckpickles lectures to learn the "secret answers." Just lol.

Date: June 11th, 2013 4:33 PM Author: Maroon Juggernaut Legend Fuck Bros, im about to fire up this 4 hour evidence video lecture because I'm to lazy to actually do it myself and learn the material (which i probably already know anyways). watching these videos takes literally no effort and is possibly the stupidest way to learn this shit.

Date: June 11th, 2013 4:36 PM Author: cream gunner liquid oxygen 10% and that's mostly because I abandoned the bar bri method immediately. In place of listening to the unhelpful, insanely long lectures, I simply read the outline that says the exact same thing, make some flashcards on the major points, and take as many practice questions as possible. Right now I am doing an honest 3-5 hours worth of work a day but beginning to increase. Plan to do 7-8 hrs a day in July. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2279002&forum_id=2#23374211) |

Date: June 11th, 2013 4:42 PM Author: Maroon Juggernaut Legend tbf, the online questions are nice because you can get like 80% right and then go see that you're still doing better than 85-90% of other test takers (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2279002&forum_id=2#23374252) |
|
Date: June 11th, 2013 4:43 PM Author: cream gunner liquid oxygen I mean, the AMP questions help and it was helpful to watch a few of the lectures to get the feel for the exam and what to look out for. Also I think taking the practice MBE in the room with everyone else will be a useful exercise. Plus, I am not sure if you can just get the books can you?

Date: June 11th, 2013 11:36 PM Author: Concupiscible public bath i'm at 0 percent. i don't even understand how to gain percentage points. honestly, i can't figure out barbri for the fuck of me. i'm secondary eic, t14, v50, federal clerkship in t1 market, squat about 225, do cross fit a few times a week, have a few suits, none of which are jos a banks, and some nice shoes, none of which are rockports. regardless, barbri confuses the fuck out of me.

Date: June 11th, 2013 11:44 PM Author: Concupiscible public bath i haven't done a max squat in a while. i'm just guessing. but 225 sounds about right. i'm having trouble with flexbility; i can't seem to get a full squat, and it's hindering me.

Date: June 11th, 2013 11:40 PM Author: pearly adulterous police squad I got a 165 scaled MBE on the July 2012 NY bar. Passed, obviously.
I ended up at about 29% on the paced program by test day. STFU. |
