"I recently passed the bar exam on the first try and I give Debbie a ton of credit. Although I was the person in the exam room, her prep course and emotional support carried me through bar prep and the exam itself. Debbie not only knew endlessly amounts of information and material about the bar exam content, but knew how to talk to my anxieties throughout prep. Bar prep can be lonely and anxiety provoking but Debbie provided me with emotional support necessary to get through it. My feelings of failure throughout bar prep would come in waves but Debbie always knew what to say. So much of what I was feeling was actually very "normal" for everyone going through bar prep and Debbie was able to tell me that because of her many years of experience working with students just like myself. On top of this, her course made sense and was logical. Unlike the commercial bar prep courses that have you watching recorded lectures for hours, Debbie course actually had me exposed to bar prep materials and content from the very beginning. Some peers of mind hadn't started MBE questions until it was maybe too late due to their commercial courses, but Debbie had me doing them from day one in order to get the proper exposure necessary to pass. Debbie's course is not only logical and successful but she is also a wonder teacher and mentor who provides for her students which is extremly valuable." |

“I came to Debbie after failing the UBE for the second time. At that point, my confidence was gone. I thought there was no way I was ever going to get over this hump - especially with PA’s 272 score requirement. I randomly searched google for a bar exam tutor and came across Debbie’s name. She has hundreds of positive reviews with success stories for a reason. I decided to pick up the phone and call Debbie that day- and I am so grateful I did. Debbie assured me I could pass this exam - she just kept saying to “get in the car and let her drive”. As a retaker I was hesitant - you think to yourself “if I havent passed yet, how could this time be any different.” I decided to hire Debbie and give this exam another shot. She gave me assignments weekly: countless mbe questions, essays, and MPTs. Yes it was a lot of work - but if you do what she says YOU WILL PASS THIS EXAM!! When it came time to take the test, I felt a sense of peace knowing Debbie prepared me as much as possible.
After the exam, Debbie was available whenever I reached out and needed a pep talk. On results day, she stayed on the phone with me for as long as I needed. She reminded me how hard I worked and I would do nothing different no matter the outcome: that’s what makes this such a huge accomplishment.
On October 6, 2023 I can proudly say I passed the Pennsylvania Bar Exam!! Debbie puts her heart and soul into helping people like me get over the finish line. Thanks to her I not only passed the bar exam, but I have my confidence back. I will always be thankful for whatever force told me to surf the web that day and click on Debbie’s name.” |

Arin: February 2021
“In December, I graduated from law school and began studying for the bar. From December 22, 2020 through February 21, 2021, I put in about 6-12 hours every day, taking off for Christmas Eve, Christmas, New Years Eve, and New Years Day. I had to make this happen, the bar is expensive, prep courses are more expensive, and a JD without a law license is beyond expensive. Law schools spend 3-4 years scaring you into believing that you won’t pass the bar unless you spend thousands on a commercial prep course. I’m a single parent without excess funds lying around so when the time came, I refinanced my house and bought the prep course. Several weeks in, I was overwhelmed and crying in front of the computer on a daily basis. I wasn’t retaining information and I was spending hours every day trying to listen to lectures and realizing I wasn’t even hearing the words. A friend of mine suggested that I reach out to her cousin who was in the business of bar prep so in a desperate, crying moment, I messaged Debbie, not even sure what I was looking for. I certainly didn’t have any money left but I was a mess that day and I think I was hoping for some kind of magic pointer or tip, anything to just talk me off the ledge I felt like I was standing on. What I got was a no-nonsense pep talk from a stranger who ended up changing my life.
Debbie kept saying things about getting in a car and letting someone else drive….this is ridiculously hard for someone who’s always been the driver. She immediately got me started on a method that was entirely different than what I had been doing which, on one hand, was an immense relief and on the other, sent my anxiety through the roof. Studying for the bar is unlike anything I have ever done before. One day, I would get things right and something would make sense and I knew I could do this, the next, I would get almost everything wrong and I knew this was a waste of my time and hers and I would never pass. I spent weeks doing what Debbie said to do and pushing down the urges to study like the commercial course had told me to. I know my anxiety and resistance were frustrating for her on more than one occasion, it was frustrating for me as well. I wasn’t sleeping, I was hardly eating and when I did, it was straight garbage. My skin was a mess, it was a rare day that I took a shower before 7 pm, and crying and panic attacks became a routine part of my life. I lost count of how many times I took a break to ugly cry and then got back to work because I would be damned if I was going to meet with Debbie and not have done what she told me to do. My stress level was higher through this process than I can ever remember but once I started working with Debbie, it at least felt like stress with a purpose. She might think I was a resistant pain in the butt sometimes but I hung on to this lady’s words and advice like my life depended on it until the day I took the bar.
I don’t know if it’s possible to take the bar exam and come out of it feeling confident but I at least finished it feeling like there was a good chance my name was going to show up on that list in a few months. As the weeks went on, that feeling started going away. I worried pretty consistently that I hadn’t passed and one of the things I dreaded was letting Debbie down after being her first scholarshipped student. Last Friday the results came out and my name was on that list and I knew with 100% certainty that it was because I had said to hell with the commercial course and worked with Debbie. To a lot of people out of the legal field, the bar exam is just some test and in fact people will tell you that repeatedly to try and make you feel better or calm down while you’re killing yourself studying or waiting for results. If you’ve gone through law school, it’s not just a test. It’s the thing that stands between you and the payoff for everything you’ve been working towards for years. Hearing it referred to as just as test can be really frustrating and even a little insulting. Seeing my name on that list was one of the coolest, most mind blowing things I’ve gotten to experience so far in my 42 years and the gratitude I feel to through this process isn’t something I can even appropriately express.
Debbie told me that she had a professor once who did this for her and that it was something that changed her life. This was an incredible and invaluable gift and I hope someday I have the opportunity to pay it forward and impact someone else’s journey this much. I know many people who have taken this exam multiple times and having passed on my first attempt, I am convinced that it’s not because I’m so highly intelligent but because I was gifted with the proper guidance.” |

"Fail or pass whatever, you are the most committed individual to helping those who seek your help I’ve ever encountered. Its a miracle that I found you. Let me be very clear, forget what happens in a couple days when results come out, I would not have made it through the PROCESS without you, let alone getting to the victory. I would have buckled or made excuses. Your training carried me through the day. That is a fact. The experience of getting to the seat to which I was assigned was the miracle that you alone were responsible for, in that you allowed me to have swagger and confidence during that exam. You showed me I was capable of doing things I never thought were possible. For that I am eternally grateful, Deb. You have no idea. You shouldered that responsibility in a way that was magnificent to watch. I am proud of myself because you taught me to be. The hardest part has been allowing myself to be proud of that. The hardest part has been letting go of the result, and I have been working just as hard on that as I worked on achieving it. You gave me this light. I am going to carry it with me forever and I am in your debt."

Clarine 2018 UBE
"I was hesitant about contacting a tutor because I had used several big box study companies for the bar in the past and nothing seemed to work. After my unsuccessful attempts at passing the DC bar, I gave up and went on with my life for about 10 years. In late 2017 – early 2018, I decided to give it one more try but I knew I had to change my study method. One friend suggested a tutor and someone from the admission office at my law school mentioned Debbie. I read reviews for days before selecting Debbie. Her reviews were consistently overwhelmingly positive. I contacted Debbie and shared my story. From the first visit, Debbie shared that the unsuccessful bar exam attempts do not have to define my life and that I could certainly overcome it. Honestly, I did not believe her because what would be different from her method to what I had done before. So glad I was wrong about this! We started the weekly sessions and in the midst of leading a major project at work, raising two little girls, and being a wife, Debbie gave me assignments that were manageable and doable. I decided I was going to do everything she laid out for me on a weekly basis. Make no mistake – it’s work, but it’s worth it!! As I progressed through the sessions, Debbie would increase the workload and adjust as needed. The aspect that I appreciated the most was the week of the bar exam, Debbie sent me this inspiring e-mail to send me on my way. That e-mail made all the difference – I read it each morning for the exam for encouragement. I can honestly say that there was nothing of surprise on the exam; I recognized the issues being tested and comfortably wrote my essays with ease. In fact, I felt great after taking the exam. I am proud to report that I just received my results and I PASSED the DC bar – 12 years after graduating from law school and about 10 years from the last time I sat for it. Debbie has a gift for this – just follow her instructions. I highly recommend Debbie with absolutely no reservations!" |
