    >>
    >> Summary: I do the following for nearly three months:
    >>
    >> 1. Supply a student with a concise but through black-
    > letter
    >> law study outline for each subject tested on the bar
    >> (usually one subject per week). The outlines highlight the
    >> most tested sub-areas on the bar. The outlines contain all
    >> of the law that you need to know and were created after an
    >> intensive analysis of Maryland, DC and Georgia law and
    >> old Maryland, DC and Georgia bar exam questions from 1991
    >> until now.
    >>
    >> 2. After the student reviews the outline for a particular
    >> subject, I supply the student with at least 3 actual old
    > MD
    >> bar exam essay questions for that subject, which they must
    >> answer, using the practice outlines to do so correctly. By
    >> the end of the class, you will have written at least
    >> 33 practice essays before the exam. Practice question are
    >> carefully selected to reflect the most tested areas and
    > sub-
    >>
    >> topics on the Maryland; DC or Georgia bar exam.
    >>
    >> 3. After the student returns their practice answers to me,
    >> I then provide detailed feedback on the student's answers,
    >> in order to diagnose and eliminate any problem areas.
    > Plus,
    >> I will assign additional essays for 'problem' subjects
    >> based upon the quality of the initial answers. I also
    > teach
    >> a concise, efficient method for answering questions.
    >>
    >> 4. The emphasis in this class is practice, practice and
    >> practice. You will learn the law and how to apply it to
    > the
    >> facts. Most importantly, you will learn from your
    >> weaknesses and improve upon them. You will also learn to
    >> focus upon the most important areas, instead of trying to
    >> memorize the entire legal code code.
    >>
    >> Deadline: Ideally, I will be starting the class on
    > November
    >> 27, 2005 which will allow nearly three months for
    >> instruction and review for the February 2006 bar
    >> exam. The class will last from the end of November until
    >> at least a week before the exam. (although I hope everyone
    >> currently waiting for results will pass the bar)
    >>
    >> Typically, my students work during the day and have
    >> families, so the longer term works well for them. I am at
    >> least as demanding than the examiners will probably be, so
    >> you are well-prepared by exam day. This class uses an
    >> active learning approach because you are always practicing
    >> bar exam skills, rather than just memorizing materials.
    >>
    >> My Background: I am admitted and have practiced in MD, DC
    >> and GA, having used this method to pass the bar in all
    >> three jurisdictions. To date, I have successfully tutored
    >> other students on the bar using these methods. I take very
    >> few students at once and work hard with each student on an
    >> individual daily basis for the eleven or so weeks prior to
    >> the exam.
    >>
    >> Comparison: After 3-4 years of law school, worth thousands
    >> of dollars in loans, and a legal career worth many
    >> thousands more, the bar exam is too important a goal to
    >> fulfill just by buying second-hand, dated materials
    > online.
    >> People flunk the bar exam because they merely cram by
    >> reading books, rather than practicing.
    >>
    >> Most importantly, used books cannot provide feedback on
    > the
    >> mistakes that one may be making in their legal writing. I
    >> can and will help a student to maximize their performance
    >> and pass the bar.
    >>
    >> Price: My prices are extremely reasonable, considering the
    >> personalized quality of the instruction, which is
    >> unavailable in larger commercial courses. This class is
    >> based upon diagnosing and fulfilling the needs of
    >> individual bar candidates.
    >>
    >> I am a serious teacher who teaches serious students.
    >> If you are serious about enrolling and passing the bar,
    >> please email me at paulgwer@hotmail.com.
    >>
    >> References available upon request.
