Sharon

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Tony

Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.

Frequently Asked Questions

The New Jersey Bar Exam tests both New Jersey-specific law and general bar exam competencies across MBE (Multistate Bar Examination) subjects and essay questions. Many test-takers struggle most with time management—balancing 200 multiple-choice questions with essay responses in a single day—and mastering the nuanced differences between New Jersey law and model rules, particularly in areas like real property, civil procedure, and professional responsibility. Additionally, the integration of New Jersey-specific statutes and case law requires focused study that goes beyond standard bar prep courses.

Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows you to focus on your specific weak areas rather than following a one-size-fits-all curriculum. A tutor can identify whether you're struggling with MBE strategy, essay organization, New Jersey-specific legal rules, or test anxiety, then tailor sessions accordingly. This targeted approach means you spend less time on material you've already mastered and more time building competency in challenging areas, resulting in faster progress toward passing score benchmarks.

An excellent New Jersey Bar Exam tutor should have a strong understanding of both multistate bar law and New Jersey-specific substantive law, ideally with bar admission in New Jersey or significant experience preparing candidates for the exam. They should be familiar with the exam format, timing constraints, and essay grading rubrics, and able to teach both content mastery and test-taking strategy. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have demonstrated expertise in bar exam preparation and understand the unique challenges New Jersey candidates face.

Most bar exam candidates benefit from 8-12 weeks of focused preparation, though the timeline depends on your baseline knowledge, how much time you can dedicate weekly, and whether you're using tutoring alongside a bar prep course. Those who combine personalized tutoring with structured self-study often see more efficient progress than those relying solely on prep courses, since tutoring can address specific problem areas immediately rather than waiting for group-based instruction to cover those topics. Your tutor can assess your starting point and create a realistic timeline based on your goals.

Yes. Essay writing is a key component of the New Jersey Bar Exam, and many candidates underestimate the importance of structured, organized responses. A tutor can teach you how to spot issues quickly, organize your analysis using proven frameworks (like IRAC), apply New Jersey law accurately, and write concisely under time pressure. Through practice essays with feedback, you'll learn to identify what graders are looking for and refine your approach, which typically leads to measurable score improvements on this portion of the exam.

The MBE (Multistate Bar Examination) tests broad legal principles across six subjects and requires strategy-based multiple-choice skills, while New Jersey essays test deeper knowledge of substantive law, New Jersey-specific rules, and written analysis. MBE prep focuses on pattern recognition and eliminating wrong answers efficiently, whereas essay prep emphasizes issue spotting, legal reasoning, and application of law to facts. Most candidates need different study approaches for each section, and a tutor can help you develop distinct strategies rather than treating them as a single preparation task.

With consistent personalized instruction, you can expect to see measurable improvements in several areas: faster issue spotting on practice problems, more organized essay responses, stronger accuracy on subject matter you initially found confusing, and increased confidence during timed practice exams. Many candidates report that within 4-6 weeks of regular sessions, they've developed stronger test-taking strategies and significantly reduced time spent studying ineffectively. Your tutor will track your progress on practice exams and specific question types to ensure you're on track toward your passing score goal.
