My Daily Schedule for the Bar



“…..What I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it. 

When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, but I shall hold something which I have traded for it. 

It may be no more than a memory, but if it is a worthy one I shall not regret the price. “-- A New Day by Dr. Heartsill Wilson

In my seven months preparation for the Bar, I followed the standard schedule as suggested from Bar Review Methods and Techniques books and had at least 8 hours sleep a day:

7:30am - 8:00am    -           Preparing for the reading/study/review /practice answering MCQs/Bar questions
8:00am-9:30am      -           Reading/study/review
9:30am-10:15am    -           Break
