June 22nd

 As I have begun the slog through the Solicitors exam work - I really understand why some people have trouble with it and might fail. I have been working on Business Law and Real Estate Law. Just those two subjects have so much material in them. Also, I don't think you can just read the Tax Law or Real Estate Law and understand them enough to write an exam. People say they "read the law twice". I don't know what reading this material twice is going to do for me.

Update May 19th

 I have had a few off days, but I have been ploughing through at about 50 Pages of Material a Day. While Reading I learned that the LSO says that eac question will have an answer which is the "best" answer" Which means that more than one answer could be correct in some way and you have to chose the answer which is more correct than the other.

Finally Finished Printing Material

 As an update, earlier today I finally finished printing the material for the bar exam. It cost 370$ to print. I was particular about the way I wanted it tabbed, and printed into booklets. I don't want to be having to go through two thousand pages at the time of the exam.  I didn't mention my big concerns in my previous post. The first concern I have is I saw a youtube video of some girl saying that she failed the bar exam three times!! That is frightening, i don't have the energy to retake these exams so often! I need to pass this exam! The second concern I have is that they say that the exam is based on long fact patterns which then require very specific answers which will be worded very similarly. How long will it take to read the question itself? If I have 60-100 seconds to read the question, how much of that time is going to be taken in the reading of the question? I am going to need to do a lot of timed practise questions to make sure I have this skill.

June 21 - Real Estate Stuff

 I got into studying Real Estate Law. It's challenging. In the U.S. the Bar Exam has things like  Right now I am reading through exceptions in Canadian law to sub dividing property under s. 50 of the planning act. (This act is in place to prevent people from subdividing their property in a manner that burdens utilities) Big difference right?
