Magicsheets
Go from blank page to complete essay — with Approsheets essay attack checklists and flowcharts
Systematically (not randomly) identify relevant issues and sub-issues, even if you have no idea where to start writing
For the 2022 California Bar Exam and Uniform Bar Exam (UBE)
Before: Randomly “issue spot” and haphazardly pull bits and pieces of issues out of thin air.
After: Go through a finite set of testable issues to completely identify all the relevant issues and rack up the points… (I call this “issue checking”)
“I was always missing issues . . . I wanted to create a system for finding the issue instead of hopefully spotting them. I bought the Approsheets and the checklists you have are amazing. Thank you”—Anonymous survey response
“I really wasn’t pulling together essays until after I spent a lot of time, specifically with your Approsheets. . . . I really saw myself picking up a lot more issues that way and scoring a lot higher. After that, I think that’s when I finally, finally started to feel like there’s a chance I was gonna pull it off.”—Joe U.

Passer’s Playbook 2.0 — tools and techniques for effective bar prep
Step-by-step blueprints, study schedules, cheat sheets, strategies, and tools designed to help you learn HOW to learn, improve your scores, and post a (humble)brag announcement that you passed the bar exam
“I’ve been basking in the glory of finally passing the bar! . . . The more I simply did what you recommend in the playbook, my confidence steadily grew.”—Stan P.
“I . . . implemented it into my study routine. Basically, all of it. . . . I raised my [Arkansas UBE] score 20+ points using your study guidance, reminders, and schedules.”—Kaitlyn
“I just took the Feb CA bar and you and all of your products were a tremendous help to me, ESPECIALLY the Passer’s Playbook, your study schedules, and other methods.”—Doreen
Does it make sense to you that…
- You go through hours of “studying” only to forget 99% of it?
- “Big box” bar prep courses tell you WHAT to study, but they don’t teach you HOW to prepare for the bar exam?
- Someone juggling a job or a family has the exact same study schedule as someone whose full-time job is to study for the bar?
Not to me.
You’re the dean of your own studies, not anyone else. You don’t have to follow “The Plan.” No matter what you use, bar prep at its core is still a self-learning endeavor. Courses and supplements are merely there to support that.
They don’t teach you. It’s up to you to learn. Always has been.
That’s why someone who collects all the “best” tools, pays out the ass for a huge course, and studies for 12 hours a day and can end up spinning their wheels getting nowhere… while someone who knows how to study efficiently and effectively can pass without the exhaustion and frustration (seemingly effortlessly).
You DON’T need a huge course that just eats up your precious time and energy.
You DON’T need to spend $3,000+ on tutors.
You only need three things to succeed: a couple of good source materials (like Magicsheets), the will to act and self-motivate, and knowing HOW to study.
So it’s time to stop merely “studying” what to learn. Let me show you how to learn — with Passer’s Playbook 2.0.

Don’t let your bar exam be your learning experience.
Just one insight or improvement could be the difference between putting your life in limbo for 6 more months… vs. putting this final hurdle behind you forever and moving on with your free life.
It only takes a moment of strength for the lifetime privilege of calling yourself an attorney.

Mental Engines — a small course on mental management for bar prep success
Organize your emotions and rethink the mental aspects of bar prep — to go from overwhelmed to focused, unmotivated to productive, and anxious to calm
Have you heard the expression, “How you do anything is how you do everything”?
I would add to that: How you think is how you do.
As you continue with your bar studies, it becomes clear that mental and emotional mastery is so important to performing well — whether during preparation or the exam itself.
Like one of my readers, Elaine, says, “The mind is 50% of this exam. It has to be in the right frame. . . . The mind is powerful.”
Or how about this, from Olivia? “I think some of my failures were heavily based on my negative attitude and constant self-deprecation.”
Likewise, TLS user lnu1992 says, “A person’s ability to handle the anxiety and stress of the exam is also huge. Even though I was a top student, I blanked during parts of the exam.”
- If you’re quick to panicking or “freaking out”…
- If you find yourself overwhelmed, distracted, and having difficulty staying on track (or staying sane)…
- If you want to stop that sinking feeling of self-doubt…
Here’s a tiny sneak peek at what you’ll discover across 8 modules, dozens of text and audio lessons:
- How to preempt burnout while enjoying your bar studies — you can make this automatic (Module 2 Lesson 2)
- The #1 predictor of your energy and focus (Module 3 Lesson 2)
- How to practically guarantee focus without relying on constant willpower (Module 3 Lesson 3)
- The principle that allows you to figure anything out (Module 6 Lesson 4)
- What you’re probably looking for instead of “confidence” (Module 4 Lesson 7)
- A thought that can keep you stuck (and miserable) until you change it (Module 5 Lesson 2)
- How to find instant calmness instead of frazzled and frantic reactions (Module 4 Lesson 4)
- [Advanced] Want to get something done? Here’s how to make it happen (I hate this one because it works so well) (Module 7 Lesson 2)
- [Advanced] I will also destroy any and all of your excuses (Module 7 Lesson 4)
- Dealing with post-bar or post-failure anxiety (Module 8)
- Plenty more in the Vault and bonus content delivered via email to keep you on track (full details here)
These are bite-sized lessons that you can take advantage of for as little as 10 minutes a day. I made this with your busy schedule and personal challenges in mind.
Immediate lifetime access and updates.
Bonus
A series of short emails over 30 days to keep you on track (worth the price of admission itself)

You’ve seen those people in law school…
They’re cool and methodical under pressure, and success seems to follow them wherever they go.
Do you see them saying they’ll “figure it out later” or “just deal with it,” or do you see them taking decisive action?
“How long are you going to wait before you demand the best for yourself?”
