Acronyms and tips that help you easily memorize and accurately recall legal concepts;
"Learning Questions" within each chapter that help reinforce learning as you go, targeting your weaker areas, so when you reach practice questions at the end of each chapter, you are confident in your grasp of the subject-matter;
More than 1,700 multiple-choice questions that offer extensive MBE practice, as well as full answer rationales;
A mock 6-hour/200-question practice MBE exam allows you to test yourself in a simulated exam experience;
The "Make Your Own Exam" feature on the free included CD allows you to customize your studying as you go.

The unique Magic Memory Outlines software and Make Your Own Exam feature on the free, included CD-ROM present a whole new element to studying for the MBE – allowing students to develop successful outlines for memorization of MBE topics while continuing to hone their skills in necessary practice for the exam.
