The Multistate Essay
Examination ("MEE") is a seven question essay examination
administered in several jurisdictions. In some
jurisdictions, the MEE is the sole essay component of the
bar exam. As such, doing well on the MEE is integral
to doing well on the bar exam. Many traditional bar
review programs focus on teaching students the black-letter
law to the exclusion of techniques on how to approach the
bar exam. Many of the applicant we work with who have
had difficulty passing the exam had a firm understanding of
the law. Our analysis revealed that one of the main
reasons they failed the exam was because they did not know
how to properly approach essay questions. In our MEE
Strategies and Techniques audio course, we will show you how
to approach any bar exam essay question. We
will teach how to prepare your answer and, most importantly,
how to best convey your knowledge to the bar examiners.
