How one attorney studied for the bar
A litigator at the place I'm working this summer told us law students her technique for studying for the bar:
She said that BarBri was no help and a waste of money, and that instead she just did as many PMBR multiple-choice questions as possible. She said it helped her learn the patterns in the questions, which was more important than anything else.
(This runs counter to everything I've heard, but it's an interesting theory that might be helpful.)

I can attest to this method. I took one exam based on pmbr questions per week and didnt do much else and passed NY and NJ on the first try -- the bar is cake.

Try doing that in LA where barbri is the only review/materials available. Competition would be nice.

But there aren't enough PMBR questions to get you through the summer. It's only got 300 per subject, which will last you only a few weeks.
Of course, maybe I've been overstudying - doing both BarBri and PMBR questions.
