Dear Paul:

I am writing to thank you for giving me the tools to pass the exam! When I joined your class I was at the lowest point in my life educationally. I had gotten my degree but had nothing to show for it. Without the bar card, I felt that the degree was in a sense, worthless. I was very much depressed having not passed the first time and with that came low self-esteem (as you could tell from class). However, after putting your lessons to plenty of practice and passing, I can't tell you how thankful I am! The grading system and comments on the practice exams were extremely helpful in highlighting my strengths and weaknesses.

I was in England at the time the results came out and did not bother to check whether I had passed or not because after having such a bad third day of the bar exam. I was sure I had failed. I only found out last week when I returned that I had passed so needless to say, I  thought of you and had to write to express my sincere thanks.

Your constant support and enthusiasm kept my spirits going when I thought it was impossible to conquer the bar exam.

Thank you,

Sincerely,

Carol Wong

p.s. Please also thank your secret grader for me! Her positive comments in conjunction with yours really gave me the confidence to make it through the exam.

More Success For Ali

Cal Bar is pleased to announce that Ali Hinsche continued her remarkable run of success in having just passed the Florida bar exam.

This was her 4th (count 'em: 1, 2, 3, 4) successful bar - on her 1st attempt-following California, New York and Illinois.

While Ali worked with Cal Bar for each state, she also owes her success to persistence, hard work, and in learning how to adapt and apply the Cal Bar test-taking systems to the requirements of each bar exam.
