More about MBE Decoded: Multistate Bar Exam, First Edition: This bar review is a fresh approach to MBE study which makes the vast amount of MBE tested rules manageable and understandable. The authors fully analyzed all NCBE released MBE questions to determine rule coverage and identify common testing patterns so you don’t have to. This book can be used during law school for early bar preparation or during intensive bar preparation by first-time takers and repeat bar takers who struggled on the MBE the first time. This book is a great resource for students to get essential MBE practice before they fully “know” the law, allowing students to get additional essential practice recognizing the fact patterns and testing styles that are key to passing. Pedagogically, this book encourages students to engage with the material, develop deep rule understanding, gain MBE pattern recognition, and aids in critical memorization efforts.


Bundle also includes Strategies & Tactics for the MBE: The new Eighth Edition has been carefully revised by Steve Emanuel and is full of up-to-date advice on how to analyze Multistate Bar Exam (MBE) questions in all MBE subject areas (Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law and Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, and Torts. Steve Emanuel—author of the Emanuel Law Outlines and CrunchTime books in the MBE-subject areas—has passed the bar exam in several states (including New York and California) and worked with law students to prepare them for taking the MBE.

Steven L. Emanuel

As a student at Harvard Law School in the 1970s, Steve Emanuel wrote concise outlines for his courses and sold them in the law school dining hall to his fellow students. His outlines were such an immediate hit that soon after graduation, Steve quit the practice of law and started his own company to publish the Emanuel Law Outlines® series and other study-aid series he helped write.

For more than 40 years, Steve's full-time job has been to update the Emanuel Law Outlines®—and other study aids he's written or published, like the Law in a Flash series—to reflect changes in the law, in casebooks, and on topics tested in bar exams. Over 2 million copies of study aids written by Steve have been sold. Steve is a retired member of the New York, Connecticut, Maryland, and Virginia bars, and has passed the California bar exam.
