STEVEN’S METHOD WORKS!! After taking Bar/Bri, many hours burning the midnight oil studying, and failing the bar in July, I knew I had to do something different in order to succeed in February. In our first conversation, Steven Harris made me feel competent and capable of passing the bar. All I had to do was follow directions! He provided the schedule, the books, boilerplates, enthusiasm and all the secrets that you haven’t heard before. He even showed me exactly how to write for the bar examiners. I was pleasantly surprised at how less stressed I was this time around. Yet by February, I never felt more prepared in taking a test. I knew the law and knew how to convey it. And I PASSED! Steven Harris was an invaluable investment I will gladly look back upon throughout my entire career. — Anna Evans, Esq., passed the February 2011 Cal Bar Examination

WINNIN’ TIME! is everything that you need to know and nothing you don’t to pass the California BAR exam delivered in a format that is easy to read and memorize. I could not believe how confident I felt going into the exam after working with this book. – Alex Eagle, Esq., passed the February 2011 Cal Bar Examination

I have spent an embarrassing amount of money on multiple bar preparation courses and materials so I can tell you from experience that The Trigger List is the most groundbreaking bar exam preparation tool out there. It shows you how to spot issues by teaching you the (not always intuitive) language used by the California BAR examiners. — Alex Eagle, Esq., passed the February 2011 Cal Bar Examination

After dealing with the agony of hiring several other bum tutors, I finally found Steven. He delivered for me on every level and I know that had I found him earlier I would have passed the first time. — Alex Eagle, Esq., passed the February 2011 Cal Bar Examination

If Steven’s tutoring program needed a poster child, then hands down, that would be me. I had everything stacked against me. Repeater, non ABA school, and special student, which means no undergrad degree and I had to take and pass the baby bar during law school.

Memorizing endless outlines, does not work for me, but the way Steve’s book WINNIN’ TIME! lays out all the rules for you makes it easier to manage and to compartmentalize the information in your head.

Essays can be difficult for some. Law school does not necessarily teach you to write the way the bar wants you to. Spend some time with Steven and his program and it will all click. He has spent countless hours pulling apart past essays, he has figured it out and you will be amazed at how simple it really can be once you are focusing your energy in the correct area.

PT’s might as well have been a brick wall, without a doubt the one thing that was standing between me and passing the bar. However I took Steven’s PT seminar, in January before the February 2012 California Bar Exam, and without a doubt this was the best thing I had done in preparation for my test. Once I saw his method of how to pull apart a PT exam, the light bulb clicked and the result was a letter from the State Bar of California telling me that they were delighted to inform me that I had passed their test!

I had tried other bar prep courses, they were good, but they were not for me, I felt like I was spinning my wheels and pulling information from everywhere. I needed more individualized attention and better focus. With Steven’s program I felt that my study time was more productive.

When I say individualized I am not kidding. You are not just a number with Steven, he truly cares whether or not you pass. Now, of course he has a vested interest in whether or not you pass, but I believe he really does personally care separately from a business interest. Case in point, the July 2011 bar exam. The Bar Gods were not liking me. During day one of the exam I had a medical problem which flared up and rendered one arm unusable, and caused a great deal of pain. Everyone told me to quit I called Steven for advice and Steven was the only one that said “keep going if you can, what do you have to lose at this point?” (I did not want to quit.) He gave me a pep talk, built up my confidence and I pushed through and finished it.

A couple of months later I received notification from the bar that only two of my answers had uploaded and that I would be receiving a grade of zero for the other six. After some inquiry I discovered that there had been a technical problem and indeed the bar did not have my answers. They found my answers and were able to see that there was a technical problem. Great right? Now they can grade my essays, right? Wrong. Although the bar is not out to punish anyone, and they truly are not, they still have rules that they have to follow otherwise it would be mayhem and in order to have my answers graded I was going to have to appeal to the committee of Bar Examiners and time was of the essence because results at this point were due out in two weeks. I called Steven for guidance and even though I had only signed on for his “A la Carte” program he stepped up and helped me write the letter to the committee. He kept in constant contact with me until I had heard from them. Eventually we won the appeal and my answers were graded. Steven went above and beyond what he had signed up for, because he cared about whether or not I passed on a personal level. I did not pass that time, I knew it was a long shot with one arm, but if I had not had my essays graded then I was failing for sure. In the end I just missed it, but he gave me some good advice and told me to shake it off, and get going for the next one, which I did with his help and I passed. I highly recommend video taping the uploading process of your answers!

If you do exactly what he tells you, then there is no reason that you would not pass. If you don’t pass you need to ask yourself, “Did I do everything he told me?” and if you answer honestly then the answer would be NO.

I am very grateful to my friends for referring me to Steven Harris. I would not have passed the bar without his help.

Steve was instrumental in my success on the California Bar Examination! His method proved to be an excellent strategy for

Steven’s essay writing method is invaluable. Once I mastered his simple writing technique, I became much more efficient and effective in my bar exam answers. I spent less time agonizing over “how do I say this?” So I could spend more time on a fact-heavy analysis.

The PT method is also simply spectacular. He broke it down so that I could face a PT exam with confidence and relative ease.

I can honestly say I would not have passed without Steven’s essay method and PT method. Thanks Steven! — Shiela Winslow, Esq., passed the California Bar Examination

Steven’s system works. Two of my friends were repeaters and they both passed the bar exam with Steven’s guidance. I followed their lead and hired Steve in hopes that he would lead me to success as well. While I took the bar exam, I worked part time for 5 hours and I studied for 6 hours a day. I had to work while studying because I didn’t want to put my entire life on hold for this test. Frankly, I couldn’t have done it without Steve’s tutoring program, WINNIN’ TIME!, The Trigger List and MBE Primers and Flowcharts.

Steven’s system is very methodical. It’s flexible in the order that you do things but the bottom line is that you have to do what he tells you to do. He will find your weaknesses and force you to think like the bar examiners. He will show you tricks to save time and spend more time on what matters. You have to put faith in his system because his system works. It worked for two of my friends and it worked for me.

If you don’t hire Steve as a tutor, at least purchase WINNIN’ TIME! and The Trigger List. If you had to choose ONLY one book, then buy WINNIN’ TIME! WINNIN’ TIME! could have been my ticket into Law Review! The book was essential for my bar exam studies and I put more faith in WINNIN’ TIME! over any Barbri or Kaplan book. In WINNIN’ TIME!, he condenses the law into one book that can lead you to victory. With hard work and the right tools, you too can pass the California bar exam! — Lily Nhan, Esq., passed the California Bar Examination

The clear, to-the-point structure for legal writing that I learned in Professor Harris’ first year Legal Writing and Research course undoubtedly helped me pass the bar and is still what I use in practice as a fellow at the ACLU. He is an effective teacher and an endless source of encouragement! — Lilly Chen, Esq., passed the California Bar Examination

Steve,

Thank you for doing what you do.

How is it that a 51-year-old online correspondence law graduate, living on the East Coast, working full time with a family has passed the July 2012 California Bar Exam? I can tell you it is by putting in the hard work and study time. More importantly, by working smart.

Bar exam takers seldom miss the pass list by not studying hard and putting in the time. I know because I missed the pass list three times before getting your two books and taking your performance test course. I then passed the bar exam.

Most law students put in countless hours of focused study. What they are missing are the things that you teach in your books WINNIN’ TIME!, The Trigger List and Performance Test Course.

When I first took your performance course from here in Upstate New York, it was immediately apparent that I could understand the performance test and pass the exam. I ought to know as I had paid for and took five other performance test courses. I was very apprehensive about investing in yet another.

I started out with getting your books, which had outlines for all the subjects. When I took your performance course, I was absolutely shocked at some of the things that you were saying. Game changers. But the thing I really liked was that you based what you teach upon researching past exam answers, which means a student can verify what you share in your lectures. I did just that.

I would hope that my journey can serve as encouragement for those still seeking to get onto the pass list for the California Bar Exam. — Ray Wood, Esq., passed the California Bar Examination
