I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

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.

Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Frequently Asked Questions
The North Dakota Bar Exam tests both breadth and depth across multiple subjects, which can feel overwhelming in a traditional classroom setting. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows a tutor to identify your specific weak areas—whether that's a particular substantive law topic, essay writing technique, or multiple-choice strategy—and focus study time there rather than reviewing material you've already mastered.
Research on learning shows that tailored instruction significantly improves retention and application of complex material. A tutor can also provide immediate feedback on practice essays and help you understand the North Dakota-specific rules and procedures that appear on the exam, saving you time in your overall preparation.
Most candidates begin bar exam preparation immediately after law school, with a focused study period of 6-12 weeks before the exam. The exact timeline depends on your baseline knowledge, how much time you can dedicate to studying, and your specific learning gaps.
Working with a tutor can compress your preparation timeline by making your study sessions more efficient and targeted. Rather than spending weeks on broad review, you can focus on high-yield topics and exam-specific strategies. Many students find that weekly or bi-weekly tutoring sessions during the final weeks before the exam significantly boost their confidence and performance.
Students frequently struggle with time management on the exam—both the multiple-choice (MBE) section and the essay portion require careful pacing. Many also underestimate how North Dakota's unique civil procedure rules and local court practices differ from what they studied in law school, and this specificity can trip up candidates who haven't reviewed the North Dakota Rules of Court and statutes.
Essay writing under pressure is another common challenge, as many students know the law but struggle to organize their answers or hit the key points that North Dakota bar graders look for. Additionally, maintaining focus and stamina across the full exam day can be difficult without a solid study strategy and practice under realistic testing conditions. A tutor can help you tackle each of these challenges through targeted practice and feedback.
An effective North Dakota Bar Exam tutor should have deep knowledge of the North Dakota Rules of Court, state-specific statutes, and case law that frequently appears on the exam. They should also have experience with the specific format and scoring criteria of the North Dakota Bar Exam and be able to explain not just the law, but the practical application and exam strategy.
Beyond subject knowledge, look for a tutor who can diagnose your learning gaps quickly, provide clear feedback on practice work, and adapt their teaching style to match how you learn best. Experience helping multiple students pass the bar in your jurisdiction is valuable, as is the ability to explain complex topics in straightforward terms and keep you motivated through the rigorous preparation period.
The North Dakota Bar Exam typically weighs both sections significantly, so you need to excel at both the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE) and the essay portion. However, your preparation strategy should be personalized to your strengths and weaknesses. Many students find the MBE more formulaic and easier to improve quickly with targeted practice, while essays require more nuanced feedback and refinement.
A tutor can help you assess where your score is likely to come from and allocate study time accordingly. For example, if you're strong on substantive law but weak on essay organization and time management, focus might shift to practicing full essays under timed conditions with detailed feedback. The goal is reaching a strong score on both sections, not perfecting one at the expense of the other.
The North Dakota Bar Exam is typically on the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE) scale, which ranges from 0 to 400. North Dakota's passing score is set annually by the North Dakota Supreme Court, but it's generally aligned with other jurisdictions at around 270-280 or higher, depending on the year. A score of 300+ puts you in a stronger competitive position.
It's important to note that bar exam scores vary based on the difficulty of that particular exam administration, so understanding the raw percentage of questions you need to answer correctly is also helpful. Working with a tutor on practice exams and receiving detailed score analysis helps you understand where you stand and what improvements are needed to reach your target score.
The North Dakota Bar Exam covers all seven Multistate Bar Examination (MBE) subjects: Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law and Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, and Torts. On the essay portion, North Dakota may also test additional subjects like Wills and Trusts, Family Law, and Business Associations depending on the year.
Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, and Evidence tend to be high-yield areas that appear frequently, so dedicating extra study time to mastering these subjects is wise. A tutor can help you prioritize your preparation based on recent exam trends for North Dakota and ensure you're equally prepared across all tested areas, since weaknesses in any single subject can significantly impact your overall score.
