Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
Thank you for helping me pass the hardest bar exam in the country! Jeff Fleming's understanding of the law, entertaining lectures and personal encouragement put me on the right track to pass the California bar exam. I recommend that anyone studying for the California bar exam take Flemings Fundamentals of Law. It was well worth it.

Dear Fleming's,

There is absolutely no doubt that my first-time success on the July 2011 California Bar Exam was a direct product of the short-term program by Fleming's Fundamentals of Law! Professor Jeff Fleming and each visiting professor taught each subject with such great thoroughness and diligence that I was able to walk into the examination with complete confidence in my ability to issue spot and respond to each question (the issue checklists are permanently ingrained in my brain!). Comparing my study experience with fellow peers in other programs, I quickly observed how FFOL offered many more opportunities to practice writing essays and performance tests to hone my writing abilities, AND the graded responses came back exceptionally fast! Above a solid learning experience, the positive and encouraging atmosphere each day in class generated by Professor Jeff Fleming and his staff kept my spirits high in quite possibly the most stressful experience of my professional life. I am truly thankful I decided not to follow the crowd, but instead decided to take the FFOL course over all others. I can't thank everyone at Fleming's enough for all their hard work and support dedicated to my success!

Dear Fleming's
Thanks to Jeff Fleming's method and the continuous committment of him and his team, I received the ability to master every aspect of the bar and ultimately pass the bar. Thank you Jeff Fleming and all your team for helping me pass the bar!!!

Dear Jeff Fleming and Susan Sneidmiller,

I cannot thank you enough for all your help and support you both have given me. I finally conquered this exam. When I saw my name pop out, I was in disbelief. I am humbled about the fact that you never gave up on me and really demonstrated that you actually cared about whether I passed or not.

I will stop by on a weekend just to thank you, because I could not have done it without your help. My good friend Roberto Rico took your writing workshop. I recently saw him and I asked him how he felt about it. He told me that it was a huge help and that he actually made the dean's list. I preached to him that your program works. I will do the same to my other colleagues at TJSL.

Anyway, thank you again Jeff, and thanks to Sue for all her help!

Regards,

Hi Jeff Fleming,
I passed the Bar Exam this time--and a big thanks to you for all the input you provided from the first essay workshop through your at home/online prep course. I am one of your old guys--at 62. After an engineering research/consulting career, I attended Concord and your essay workshop as part of my preparing for the Baby Bar. Now I am studying for the Patent Bar, having interned with a patent attorney for 2-years.

Because your light shined on the path, my hat is off to you.

You are the best,

Dear Jeff Fleming and Staff,
I just want to personally thank you for helping me "slay the dragon" on the July 2011 CA Bar. I thought your outlines, predictions and motivations got me over the hump. Again, thank you.

Sincerely,

Dear Fleming's,

I am writing to you to inform you that I passed the October 2011 Baby Bar Exam and it was all thanks to you.

If I had to describe your boot camp program in one word it would be 'MONEY'. Your simulated exam approach is the best way to condition oneself to take the 8-hour exam. By practicing the essays daily, I was able to condition myself to finish each essay within one hour, which is very important.

The most helpful tip that you gave me for the exam were the checklists. I really believe that I would not have passed without the checklists. Since issue spotting is pretty much where your points come from, the checklists helped me not to overlook any significant issues.

Also, my weakness has been the MBE's. However, after I got your MBE books which helps explain why the correct answer is correct, I was able to eliminate the wrong answers quickly. 

I am so thankful for all your workshops and am so happy I discovered your program. I'm not sure I would have been able to take on the Baby Bar without you. Thank you so much. 

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming and Staff,

The 2011 October Baby Bar results are in and I passed with a 683! I would not have been successful without listening to your Baby Bar review CD's on a daily basis. Working full time as a police officer and a full time student, you don't have the leisure to study substandard outlines. Jeff Fleming's approaches gave me a road map that led me to success as a first time passer. School will give you a basic understanding of the law, but Jeff Fleming teaches you how to pass the test!

Thanks for everything,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
Just wanted to let you know that I passed the October 2011 Baby Bar exam and would like to THANK YOU for all the help and guidance that you provided during my first year at NWCU School of Law.

I just cannot imagine studying for this exam without using the material written and published by you. I was also fortunate enough see you in person and get a direct feedback from you on the essay writing during the (Thursday) video chats. All this put together along with your books and CDs, made it a lot easier to pass this exam in first attempt.

Thanks again.

Dear Fleming's,
We just received our October 2011 FYLSX results, and as a first time taker I scored 679! THANK YOU for giving me the tools I needed to be successful. The Baby Bar Review helped me organize information so I could study efficiently, and the Exam Focus interactive course helped me fine-tune my skills. I KNOW I could not have scored a 679 on my first try without your material. You'll be hearing from me for materials to help me with my 2L courses.

Dear Susan Sneidmiller,
I needed to let you know that I am very thankful that I took your weekend California Performance Test course. Taking your course instilled in me the confidence (something I did not have before) to walk into the July 2011 exam knowing I could achieve 2 passing scores on the PT's.  I also want to say thank you for responding to all of my emails promptly and in a very encouraging manner. After the first weekend boot camp, I had seriously entertained the idea of postponing taking the exam because I did not think I could achieve the necessary scores.  I am glad I stuck it out.

 Sincerely,

Thanks for everything,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,

With a new job, family responsibilities and keeping up with my 2L course-work, I was really looking for a creative and time sensitive way to prepare for the October 2011 Baby Bar Exam.

Your "Exam Solutions" lectures, outlines and mnemonics proved to invaluable!

I listened to your lectures while commuting to/from work and during my lunch breaks. At night, after the kids were asleep, I worked through the practice examinations and then listened to your analysis of the fact pattern and legal issues.

When it came time to take the exam, I followed your advice and scribbled the following on my scratch paper, knowing with confidence that the checklist would help me identify the issues.

Today I received my results and am pleased to inform you that I was successful in passing the Baby Bar!

Thank you for providing me with a solid legal foundation, an approach to tackle the toughest questions and the confidence to succeed.

All my best,

Thank you for being an outstanding coach! Your personal commitment to your students and home study course fully prepared me, both academically and psychologically, to pass the July BAR Exam!

I'm thrilled to be joining the chorus of new attorneys who are praising Jeff Fleming and Susan Sneidmiller for helping them pass the February 2011 California bar exam.

I took Fleming's Online Bar Review course, and it was excellent. Jeff Fleming gives a very in-depth review of the substantive law, but what made the difference for me was that Jeff Fleming also gave me clear, practical and reliable checklists and approaches to writing essays for every single substantive topic. I didn't get that from an earlier bar review program I'd signed up for with another company. With Fleming's, the light turned on, everything began to fall into place, and I understood how to plan, analyze, organize and write every kind of essay--Evidence, Con Law, Civil Procedure, Property, crossovers, you name it.

Susan Sneidmiller got me out of a tailspin on the Performance Tests. I'd had some negative reinforcement from another company's PT instructor and I kept getting mentally stuck, running out of time, and not writing coherently. Susan's lectures broke down each part of a PT and gave me a simple, methodical but extremely thorough approach to organizing, analyzing, writing and time management. I was able to stop approaching PTs from a position of fear, especially the overwhelming fear of not having enough time to write, and I was actually able to give myself time to take a quick break during the bar exam, walk away for a few minutes, and let the big picture sink in clearly--without being stressed out by the clock. Susan gave me the confidence to think more, write less, and trust my guts as a lawyer would in real life.

Fleming's MBE materials were great. No matter what our classmates say, I believe that when it comes to MBEs quality is more important than quantity. Fleming's gave me a deeper understanding of how to see what was going on with each MBE question and it became much easier to understand the subtle distinctions between the answer choices, especially when having to choose between the two best answers. I became much more aware of the difference between "if...," "if, and only if..." and "unless..." I understood better why an answer involving a counterargument might be a better choice than an answer invoking a defense, even if both answers were true. And it was not a problem to answer the 200 MBEs in the time allotted.

I entered the Oakland Convention Center smiling, because I finally understood how to approach every essay, MBE and PT that I might encounter. I survived a major software problem on the first day that caused me to have to hand-write half the essays and PTs for the first time ever, but I was able to stay on course because Fleming's gave me the tools and strategies I needed to succeed.

There is nothing like that first moment when you read that your name is on the pass list for the California bar exam. Being sworn in as an attorney is an exhilarating, surreal experience. Fleming's Fundamentals of Law--Jeff Fleming, Susan Sneidmiller, and their dedicated staff--made it possible for me.

Hi Jeff Fleming,
I took the exam this past July 2010 and passed! I am elated and so ready to start practicing. Thank you again for all of your terrific instruction and lecture materials and practice exams. All the best to you and your staff.

I am writing to thank you for all of you help. I truly could not have done it without your guidance and support! Thank you for all the effort you and your staff put in this program.

Your home study Bar Review made the difference in passing the Arizona Bar examination. Working full time, handling the responsibilities of being a father, your product made the difference. Respectfully and sincerely!

Thank you for all your help through law school and preparation for the Bar Exam. It made the Bar a pleasurable experience. Give my best to everyone associated with Fleming’s.

Hi Jeff,

I just wanted to let you know that I passed bar! Thanks for all your support through the years and especially the bar as your materials proved to be a great, additional resource. I hope all is well!

Best,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
Thank you for all the time and effort you and your exceptional team put into my success with the Bar. The personal attention you gave me was priceless.

I appreciate the time and thoughtfulness John, April, Julie, and the other graders put into critiquing my essays. The rigorous grading showed where to focus my attention and pushed me to work even harder.

Susan's approach to the performance portion of the Bar exam improved my efficiency and analysis.

The personal attention I received from Jared on the MBE helped me hone in on specific areas for improvement.

Your team's assistance greatly increased my skill and confidence. Thank you all.

Sincerely,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
As I received my July 2010 Bar Examination results on Friday, I wanted to make sure to thank you for your bar preparation class. I appreciated your enthusiasm, hard work and knowledge that you share with your students including myself. I felt very organized and prepared as I entered the examination. I have recommended your class to everyone who is planning on taking the bar in the future. Keep up the great work!

Sincerely,

I passed the bar on my first try, and I honestly believe that your bar review course is the best on the market. Your detailed and personalized reviews of so many of my essays and performance exams really enabled me to fine tune my writing for the exam. Thanks!

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
I took Professor Jeff Fleming's bar prep course and passed the exam on the first try. I credit the program for much of my success. Professor Jeff Fleming breaks the exam down during prep so you know exactly how to attack it when you have to take it for real. This program demystifies the exam so that you won't be intimidated by it. By the end of the program, I felt that I could handle any question the examiners could throw at me. I really believe any law student can pass the California bar exam if they take this program and do the assigned work.

Sincerely,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
Thank you for your amazing outlines, an incredible collection of essays, comprehensive MBE books - all of this accompanied by your unwavering commitment to our success. A sincere thanks to all your lecturers for Performance, Evidence/Civil Procedure, Property, and Remedies. You all care so much with a level of energy that knows no bounds. You challenge us to match your energy and commitment and that is what sets your program apart! Thank you for your dedication, passion and tough love!

Sincerely,

It was all of you who believed in me and gave me the confidence and knowledge to pass one of the hardest exams in the country on my first attempt.

Thank you! You may indeed take credit for my success, because you showed me how to achieve it. I shall recommend this course to others as it was recommended to me.

The best decision I ever made was to place my preparation for the California Bar in the guiding hands of Jeff Fleming. I received personal attention and guidance on how to study. It was systematic and thorough. UBT is the best choice!

Hi Professor Fleming,

It's with undescribable glee and joy that I have the pleasure and honor of telling you that I passed this past February 2010 NV Bar Exam. The pass rate was the worse one yet, at, 48% (likely not much better than California!). I never would've been able to do it without you, your course and your staff! You are INCREDIBLE!!! This was my third time taking NV after practising for over 20 years out of NY. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

I heard you talk me thru the entire exam. You actually predictated quite a few of the NV essays. Your lectures are so right on point; your test taking techniques and insights, right on the money, and probably most of all, your strategy-technique (IRAC; practice essays (especially ones included in the lecture on-line) and outlining strategies, cliched it for me.

I did what you said; headnotes/subheadnotes, IRAC and wrote "TIME" at the end. I answered everything the way you suggested; especially Evidence with the discussion on Logical/legal relevance etc and repeated for each subpart by "supra' or "infra".

I've been telling anyone and everyone who's taking or repeat takers (especially) about you and your online course.

I wanted to thank you again and let you know the good news!!! You're the BOMB!!!

Respectfully and with utmost gratitude,

Dear Professor Fleming,

I hope that you are doing well! I've been telling students about your Bar Prep course and how I felt the July 2009 exam was easy because of your class. I was so relaxed and confident during the exam... it was like night and day compared to all of the worries I had before the exam. Every time I walked out of a testing session, I had a smile on my face. Unlike the rest of my classmates, I felt I didn't have to worry about my results so I was relaxed for the 4 months that I waited. To get an overachiever like me who is normally stressed out during exams to feel that comfortable is incredible. Thank you again.

Best,

Christina M. Ignatius , Esq.
Chapman School of Law

Hi Jeff Fleming,
I passed the Bar Exam this time--and a big thanks to you for all the input you provided from the first essay workshop through your at home/online prep course. I am one of your old guys--at 62. After an engineering research/consulting career, I attended Concord and your essay workshop as part of my preparing for the Baby Bar. Now I am studying for the Patent Bar, having interned with a patent attorney for 2-years.

Because your light shined on the path, my hat is off to you.

You are the best,

I can’t thank you enough for your dedication to your students. Seeing my name on the pass list was a direct result of your devotion to us, your confidence in us and your intolerance of our self-pity. My family and I thank you (especially my family).

I highly endorse Fleming’s program and materials! We own a small, growing law firm in Northern California. Not only did both of our senior partners pass first time using Fleming’s Long Term Bar Prep course but one of our newly minted associate attorneys just received results this May and passed using the long term course first time through! I highly endorse his course, but ... You MUST DO ALL THE WORK AND FOLLOW FFOL’S RECOMMENDED COURSE OF PREPARATION.

I chose the Fleming’s Ultimate Bar Tutorial and made the right choice. Your assistance, support, coaching and encouragement convinced me I would pass.

Thank you so much for your dedication, encouragement, and most of all, the checklists and approaches! The team at Fleming’s Fundamentals of Law is the best out there! You were truly the key to my success!

Professor Fleming’s straight forward, no nonsense method was my key to unlocking the exam. Most importantly, the entire FFOL team was 100% committed to my success every step of the way. Fleming’s practical, hands on approach to the CA Bar Exam are second to none!

I had such a positive experience in your bar prep program and know that it is because of your program that I was able to pass the bar my first time!!! Thank you so much!

Professor Fleming’s interest, drive, and passion about teaching and success of his students were the number one factor why I made the choice. I had the opportunity to write over 50 essays and review over 19 performance exams and receive individual feedback on all of them. I would not have been able to do it without FFOL, Professor Fleming, and his staff. For all of this, I will be indebted to them forever.

I worked full time for the majority of my studying time so the home study course was perfect for me. It allowed me to tailor the program to my personal needs and not spend any more time than necessary on my strong subjects. The outlines were clear, concise and paired nicely with the online lectures. Jeff Fleming and the other lecturers are all experts and explained the material in a straightforward and intelligible manner. I would certainly recommend this program.

I would be nowhere without the Ultimate Bar Tutorial at Flemings! Jeff Fleming's lectures and technique gave me the strength, will power, and stamina to conquer the California Bar Examination. Coming from a non-ABA school, I knew I needed a lot more help than the mainstream bar review programs. I tell this to every bar candidate I know. If Jeff Fleming were a religion… I would have joined already!

Dear Fleming's
Thanks to Jeff Fleming's method and the continuous committment of him and his team, I received the ability to master every aspect of the bar and ultimately pass the bar. Thank you Jeff Fleming and all your team for helping me pass the bar!!!

Dear Fleming's,
FFOL was a substantial part of my passing the July 2011 Bar Exam. When I left UCLA to pursue a career in the music industry 16 years ago, I promised myself that I would always go back and reach the goal of becoming an attorney. As time passed and success was fortunate, the hopes of being able to go back to a traditional law school dwindled. I had to teach myself the law and how to write essays. FFOL was a part from the start. I was there every week meeting with your tutor, Dana, beginning in my first year. I may have not done it the way I dreamed about 20 years ago but I passed every test on the first try, including the July 2011 Bar Exam. Thank you for being a part of this achievement ! 

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming:
When I started law school in 2007, a tax attorney friend of mine said “The first thing you have to do is take Fleming’s Writing Workshop.”

Three years later, when I sat for the July 2010 Bar, the fundamentals I learned from your Writing Workshop had become second nature. I took the bar exam like a lawyer—the way you taught me. I had a sound technique for essay writing and a good strategy for taking each section of the bar. When I looked through bar the exam on day one, I scanned all three essays and opted to begin with question three. The non-Fleming students from my school began with question 1, and many ran out of time on the most important question.

When the smoke cleared and I saw my name on the pass list, I knew that the advantage you gave me in strategy was the difference. I did not merely write an exam. I looked at essays and allocated time for each; I examined the call of the question; I determined the order I would answer, I categorized each essay and wrote the checklists next to the categories. I tackled performance tests intelligently—using your TAP method and understanding my assignment before I started organizing. Thank you, Susan; and thank you Performance Patti. Finally, I dealt with the MBE methodically, finishing both sets of questions with enough time to go back and review.

Students from other bar preps only had 15 or 20 essays graded. I got feedback on THREE ESSAYS A WEEK! By the end of the program, I had written at least 40, each read by an attorney and accompanied by an audio CD of critique. Students from other bar preps only saw a handful of performance tests, where I WROTE a couple of dozen. Looking back, I realize that during prep I took over a dozen blocs of three-hour essays like mornings 1 & 3; two dozen performance tests (afternoons 1 and 3) and ten sections of 100 MBE questions. I was relaxed because I already knew what to expect—I had already done it.

Students in other bar preps would doze during the video lectures but you made sure that we didn’t during your live lectures by paying attention to each of us as individuals, and reading us as a group for breaks. Between you and Dr. Moss—the hypnotist you brought in—I was so mentally prepared for test day that I felt no fear. I was relaxed and composed, and able to apply my strategy.

Thank you, Professor Fleming. If you ever come across a student who is having trouble deciding to use your bar prep, have them give me a call. I was very, very fortunate to have a friend recommend your Writing Workshop. I have no doubt that your tutelage was what I needed to pass the California Bar exam.

Sincerely,

Dear Fleming's Fundamentals of Law,
I only wish that I would have taken Fleming’s Ultimate Bar Tutorial (UBT) in the first place instead of the “Big Bar Review” that I was forced to take by my school.

UBT is a comprehensive and intense program that taught me the invaluable skills on how to approach essays and Performance. The whole staff was always 100% behind me and each person was always available whenever I needed extra help. I would not have passed the bar this time without Fleming’s UBT. I will always be forever grateful to the whole staff! My fellow classmate, Michelle also took UBT and passed as well.

Your Bar Review course provided me with all of the necessary tools to give me the confidence to take the test and the skills to pass! I cannot tell you enough how grateful I am for the personal time and energy you put into your Bar Review Course!

I am happy to inform you that I passed the CA bar on first attempt. Audio lectures and notes were very useful. The two things I found most useful were (1) regiment to write and get comments on a number of essays (many more than other bar prep classes) and (2) additional samples of past student bar essays with grades - to further calibrate my efforts. Thanks again!

I passed the February Bar Exam. Thank you! Your performance exam preparation was outstanding. I trusted your years of experience in bar prep rather than my own ideas. Your program is outstanding. I know I could not have passed without it.

Professor Jeff Fleming is very passionate about teaching his students and he's available to talk to them virtually at all hours. His checklist methods and past bar exam packet were a tremendous help to my passing the July 2010 California Bar.

Thank you,

Dear Jeff Fleming,
According to the online search, my name appears on the pass list... Yeah! Thanks to all of you who were very helpful and supportive throughout the process, especially Sue, who spent so many hours tutoring me on Performance. Both of my brothers passed with Fleming's as well.

Thanks again!

There are no live courses where I live. I could either spend hours driving to a classroom to watch video presentations from another bar-review provider, or take a home course. The Fleming's Online Course offered the best value of the home courses I investigated. Jeff Fleming and his team have decades of experience with bar preparation. The materials were comprehensive, and the support team quickly responded to my e-mailed questions. I signed up for Fleming's with two friends, and we encouraged each other by phone and e-mail throughout the months of study. All three of us passed the bar exam the first time.

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
I am pleased to report that I achieved a passing score on the July 2010 California Bar Exam.

As I had informed you, I have never attended a single day of law school. Instead, I was a participant and beneficiary of California’s Law Office Study Program.

Prior to your Bar Review course, my only “formal” legal education consisted of your Baby Bar Review Course and your Legal Essay Writing Workshop which both contributed to my passing the FYLSX. Prior to your writing workshop, I had never written a legal essay and had not written an essay of any kind in 10 or 15 years. I am certain that I would not have been successful in this endeavor without you and your wonderful program.

Jeff, my family and I owe you, Professor Sneidmiller, and your lecturers an enormous debt of gratitude. My future career in law would never have been possible without your clear and comprehensive program and materials.

Ty Supancic
California’s Law Office Study Program

Your exceptional guidance, concise materials, enthusiastic teaching style, memory retention devices, issue approaches, and never ending encouragement, were the keys to my success.

I would not have passed the Bar without your classes and support! Thank you so much for giving me the feeling of success and being proud of myself again!

I am convinced that your methodology of writing essays under timed conditions coupled with a highly structured and focused curriculum were imperative to my success in passing the exam on my first attempt. Once again, thank you!!!

I was a distance learning student at William Howard Taft University. Thanks for your efforts in helping me be successful in both my law school course work and my FIRST taking of the Bar.

I truly believe that by doing everything that I was required of me in the Fleming’s Bar Prep program was the reason for me passing the bar exam.

Professor Jeff Fleming,
As you know, you have been more than a coach and a mentor for me. Your bar preparation program, not to mention your tireless effort to the program, has impacted me in ways that will not go unforgotten. In particular, through your program, I was able to master essay portion of the exam. Specifically, I was able to crack the test patterns of the examiners by following your guidance and taking exam after exam after exam. Simply put, your approach to the essay exam portion of the bar is unmatchable.

In addition, the program put on by Ms. Susan Sneidmiller for the performance portion of the exam, gave me the tools to weed through the ever grueling performance file that the bar examiners use to weed out candidates. Her approach allowed me to gather my thoughts, organize my writing and answer the calls of the question. Again, without her or her approach, I would have been overwhelmed by performance portion of the bar.

In short, my success is a testament of not only my work, but also more importantly yours. Because of your commitment, dedication and time, I was only a vehicle that you used to be successful on the February 2011 California Bar Exam. Thank you for believing in me. I will forever be grateful.

Many thanks,

Dear Susan Sneidmiller,

Thank you so much for the kind regards, they are much appreciated. I am ecstatic to now call myself an attorney. Thank you for all of your advice during our 3-day workshop, I believe the help we received was a first necessary step in mastering the PT portion of the July 2010 Bar Exam.

Warmest Regards,

Dear Ms. Susan Sneidmiller,
I want to thank you so much for your advice, critiques, and approach for the Performance Exam section of the California Bar Exam. I undoubtedly passed on my second attempt due in large part to my enrollment in your 4-Day Performance Exam Workshop. It's truly a great feeling to be able to call myself an attorney!

Sincerely,

Susan Sneidmiller’s approach to the Performance Exam was absolutely key to my passing the PT’s. Her four-phase approach was brilliant.

Dear Susan Sneidmiller,
Thank you very much. I owe one-third of the exam to you and the Flemings PT approach.

I fully recommend it.

Best Regards,

I passed the bar on my first try. Your detailed and personalized reviews of so many of my performance exams really enabled me to fine tune my writing for the exam. Thanks!

Dear Susan Sneidmiller,

Thank you so much.

I spent a lot of time practicing performance exams and the Fleming model helped me be successful on that part of the July 2010 BAR, so thank you (smile).

Susan Sneidmiller’s Performance Workshop prepared me for the Performance section of the bar by teaching me a flawless method in approaching each and every Performance essay with which I was confronted.

Dear Susan Sneidmiller,
I needed to let you know that I am very thankful that I took your weekend California Performance Test course. Taking your course instilled in me the confidence (something I did not have before) to walk into the July 2011 exam knowing I could achieve 2 passing scores on the PT's.  I also want to say thank you for responding to all of my emails promptly and in a very encouraging manner. After the first weekend boot camp, I had seriously entertained the idea of postponing taking the exam because I did not think I could achieve the necessary scores.  I am glad I stuck it out.

 Sincerely,

I want to say thank you for helping me pass the February Bar Exam. I feel I did very well on the PT’s and I thought Susan Sneidmiller’s method was a major fact or in my success.

Dear Susan Sneidmiller,

Thank you so much for your thoughtful message and for your guidance through the PT's on the February 2011 Bar Exam. As you probably remember, I had a timing problem with PT's, but working with you helped me minimize this problem. Your teachings broke down the PT's to a method I could apply, and this certainly alleviated some of the anxiety I felt towards them. So thank you again, and I'll be sure to recommend Flemings Fundamental's to my colleagues who are now preparing for the bar.

Best Regards,

Your performance exam preparation was outstanding. I followed Susan Sneidmiller’s method exactly. I am sure that my performance exams sealed my passing grade on the Bar. I actually enjoyed them.

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
I finally passed my February 2011 Bar Exam. I have to admit that the Fleming’s course on the Performance Test was the icebreaker. I consistently scored very high on the multiple choice but my PT scores were low until using your program. Well worth the money. Thank you! God Bless. I hope I can meet Jeff Fleming some day in person and thank him. I wish I ordered your program from the very beginning. Even the BIG schools like mine, UC Davis, did not prepare me for the writing portion of the CA BAR exam. The word needs to get out!

Sincerely,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
My success on the October 2010 Baby Bar is a direct result of your efforts. I would say 95% yours and 5% (me +luck and prayers). Thank you for what you have done and continue doing for us. You care for us like our father, You are a great professor, I repspect you a lot. When I saw the test results, I cried first for one hour, then I am writing to you.....We did this together, it was mostly you though....

God bless you
God bless America
Regards,

Dear Fleming's,
I would like to thank everyone at Flemings who helped me passed the October 2010 Baby Bar! I am very grateful and feel I couldn't have done it without all of your help!

Happy Holidays!

Dear Fleming's,
I passed the October 2010 Baby Bar. I highly recommend Fleming’s Fundamentals of Law. The audio CDs are an important supplement for reviewing the in-class lectures, and the examination writing workbooks explain to the student how an essay must be written. Also, if one practices all MBE in Fleming’s multistate exam book, his or her chances to pass will definitely increase.

Finally, I can also highly recommend the seminars. Professor Jeff Fleming is a dedicated and experienced teacher and his classes are eyes-opening.

There is, at least in my opinion, nothing on the market that would offer better materials for the preparation of your law exams or the Baby Bar exam.

I am very pleased to be writing this letter to you. I took the June Baby Bar Exam and received a grade of a B.

Just so you know how extraordinary this was for me, you should realize that I have never physically attended a law school. I am taking my law school study by correspondence. I decided that I would take the baby bar review also by correspondence and through your CDs.

I followed your suggestions religiously. I did the boot camp specifically as you detailed. I used your approaches, and they worked. Your boot camp was brutal, but it definitely gave me confidence when I knew it was time to perform.

I still can't believe I got a 90 on a contract essay question!

Your ability to simplify the law into a working set of approaches sets you apart from other professors I have listened to on tapes.

I couldn't have done it without your help. Thanks again.

Today, two days before Christmas I received the results of the FYLSX.I am glad to inform you that I passed. Thank you for your Christmas present.

The difficulty of a first year correspondence student is multi fold; No one to study with, no lectures, no professors, basically you are handed a set of books to read and prepare to take the Baby Bar. (Sink or swim)

Thank God I was introduced to your course; without it I would have sunk. Fleming's First Year Review course must be mandatory for all first year students.

Sign me up for the "Fleming's Bar Review". Thank you again, see you in a couple years.

Hi Professor Jeff Fleming,
I am writing to inform you that I passed the June 2011 FYLSX. I am very happy and I feel empowered in a sense. I have a great feeling of accomplishment. I know that it would not have been possible without the teachings and advice given by Fleming's Fundamental of Law. This was actually my second attempt at passing this exam. And in all actually, I feel like I studied harder the first time. However, your techniques were key in assuring that I utilized my study time more efficiently and how to expect/see things that I did not the first time. I actually participated in your home study version and your exam focus and it appears that I needed every bit. I passed by the skin of my teeth. BUT I PASSED! I would like to say thanks to you and your staff.

Best Regards,

Fleming’s review program was instrumental in getting me to succeed on the California Bar. What I needed after failing the Bar was to re-focus and master the material. Thanks again FFOL!

This letter is to inform you that I passed the October Baby Bar and I want to thank you for your wonderful program.

I followed your boot-camp program. I did the exam under simulated conditions for 2 weekends, issue spotted and wrote practice exams for each and every one of the essays provided in your book. Do you know what happened? I walked into the exam and took it as if it was nothing I hadn't done before.

The essays were just flowing as I had written so many of them. Therefore, they were just 4 more essays that I had to write. The multistates were very similar and some almost identical to the ones I had done in practice.

Your program put me through what was basically military style hell, but I want to thank you for helping me and for creating such a program for students such as myself who due to special circumstances were dismissed from school. I want to let you know that I also wrote the 6 essays which were critiqued by your staff. That was a great help!

Thank you again and God bless you.

Dear Jeff Fleming and staff:

I just wanted to take a quick moment to thank you for your help in preparing me for the October 2009 California baby bar exam. I was very concerned with how I would do, as it was my first time taking it. I tried to prepare as much as possible. Your program is what I believe gave me not only the edge, but a solid foundation, which allowed me not only to pass the test but come very close to an A.

I followed your instruction, listened to your CDs, did over 3000 MBEs (scored an 89 raw), and was able to stay on task with your boot Camp (Scored an 80 on essay #4).

I will be not only recommending your program, as I have already done, but will be a client for the future bar exam.

Once again thank you.

All the Best,

Hi Professor Jeff Fleming,
I appreciate the compliment. I got an 85 on the Criminal Law question 4.Thanks a lot for your excellence and patience in tutoring. I would not have made it without your help.

Regards,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,

With a new job, family responsibilities and keeping up with my 2L course-work, I was really looking for a creative and time sensitive way to prepare for the October 2011 Baby Bar Exam.

Your "Exam Solutions" lectures, outlines and mnemonics proved to invaluable!

I listened to your lectures while commuting to/from work and during my lunch breaks. At night, after the kids were asleep, I worked through the practice examinations and then listened to your analysis of the fact pattern and legal issues.

When it came time to take the exam, I followed your advice and scribbled the following on my scratch paper, knowing with confidence that the checklist would help me identify the issues.

Today I received my results and am pleased to inform you that I was successful in passing the Baby Bar!

Thank you for providing me with a solid legal foundation, an approach to tackle the toughest questions and the confidence to succeed.

All my best,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
I passed the Baby Bar with the help of the Fleming's home study BB review course. Jeff Fleming was not only entertaining but the comprehensive review of the law and the sample essays were a must. I would not have passed without this review and essay writing practice. Write the sample essays, do 2000 multistate practice questions and listen to the Flemings Baby Bar review course and you will pass! The benefit I had with the home study version was that I was able to listen to it more then once. I needed this! Thanks guys!

Hello: I just wanted to thank you for your wonderful FYLSX preparation course. I passed on my first attempt in June 2011 with a scaled score of 657.9107 with 351.4019 on my essay section. I have just started 2L and I am using your 2L program. I recommend you highly.

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
I would like to inform you that my "admissions status" at the California State Bar's website indicates that I have passed the Baby Bar, June 2011. I would like to thank you for your great course work.You gave me a lot of tips to be able to pass the Baby Bar. I greatly appreciated your help!!!

Thank you very very very much!!!!

Through friends, I was introduced to your baby bar review course. The price seemed, at first, a little steep but, without a passing score my law career would be held in limbo.

Even though the course was recorded on DVD, your enthusiasm and anecdotes kept the eight hour day from being excessive or boring. The lecture outlines provided the rules and format for well-reasoned and cogent answers to legal questions. The "Boot Camp" regime was manageable and the practice exams were excellent because of an audio response that explained what I was doing wrong, and how to better explain the rule to fact relationship.

In conclusion, I passed first try! Your course was a major factor coupled with hard work that made for favorable results. Thank you for helping my dreams come true.

Hello Professor Jeff Fleming,
I wanted to share the great news that the State of California Bar Examiners has passed me for the First Year Law Students' exam. They did a re-read and determined that one of the MBE questions had more than one answer. That one score put me over the top and they decided to award me the passing mark.
Thank you for your teachings and support. I could not have done it without you.
Humbly,

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
I am thrilled that I passed the June 2011 First Year Law Students Examination. I appreciate all the help that I received at Flemings during the weeks leading up to the exam from you and the team. I look forward to working with everyone again in the future. I was a  few points shy on the essays.  However, I pulled an 80 on the MBE’s.

Thank you for the boost in confidence and the clarity in understanding the material. I believe that your study aids gave me. My grandfather used to say: "All I want is an unfair advantage." When some of my classmates gasped in horror at what they perceived as an extravagance in my purchasing so many of your study aids, I had no problem staring them down and explaining how much money I would save in the long run if I passed the first time by not having to return to San Francisco and take the exam again. I'm happy that the two classmates who heard this logic bought their own CDs and outlines and passed as well!

Thanks again. Sincerely,
A. Mueller

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming,
I passed!! Thank you very much for your excellent training program. I would not have been able to make it without your program. The program is priceless. Your graders were nice but they meant business. I was depressed when I got my marks for the essays I wrote, although I must admit, it was definitely my wake up call.

Tell your students to turn in their essays early so they have time to improve. I could have passed with a much higher score if I turned mine in earlier. I was one of those procrastinators you named on your lectures.

With Regards,

Dear Fleming's:
I'd like to thank Professor Jeff Fleming and his team for putting together a comprehensive review package. I didn't send in the essays like I should have with the excuse that my full-time job and full-time school got in the way, but I reviewed every word, did many hundreds of the MBE's (all of the way to Paris and back on one trip), and listened to the CD's in the car nearly everywhere I went. A chapter of my life has now been closed with a very pleasant result. Thank you!!

Dear Professor Jeff Fleming and Staff,

The 2011 October Baby Bar results are in and I passed with a 683! I would not have been successful without listening to your Baby Bar review CD's on a daily basis. Working full time as a police officer and a full time student, you don't have the leisure to study substandard outlines. Jeff Fleming's approaches gave me a road map that led me to success as a first time passer. School will give you a basic understanding of the law, but Jeff Fleming teaches you how to pass the test!

Thanks for everything,

I am writing to thank you for the excellent way in which you prepared me for the June Baby Bar.

Because of participating in your Baby Bar Review, I was able to approach the exam with confidence.

I was especially pleased that I did not receive a single non-passing grade on the examination. My study partners and I followed your Boot Camp religiously and I was able to score 87% on the Multiple Choice Examination. I was also able to receive scores of 80%, 85%, 70% and 75% on the essays.

Thanks again for your work. I am looking forward to participating in your classes and using your materials throughout Law School.

I have had great experience with the Exam Solution Series. I was wondering if you have a promotional code that I may use to purchase, Civ Pro, Con Law, Property, and Professional Responsibility. Please let me know if you can help. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Dear Professor Fleming,

I wanted to write you and thank you for everything. Your programs geared towards 1L's are the best tool I came across all year. Honestly, with the cost of law school and the competition for beating the curve, you are giving your secrets away too cheaply. Any student not taking your writing course and semester course reviews are at a true disadvantage. I don't know where I would be without your knowledge and passion for helping law school students to be successful in these rigorous programs. Everything you share with students is extremely relevant and correlated to law school success. Because of you, I was able to achieve great success during my first year of law school at Chapman and was able to impress Arizona State University enough for them to offer me the opportunity to transfer into their program. I finished in the top 30% of my class after the first year when my realistic goal before the start of the first semester was to be in the top 50% since I was out of college for over 8 years. After taking your crash courses and free classes on campus, I realized I was selling myself short and was very happy with my performance and final 1L ranking. I know it is difficult to convince a 1L to spend more money on top of tuition or even time at the supplemental classes but I can not emphasize enough that 1L's simply can't afford not to take your courses. I took your course review classes both semesters and the writing class in the Spring and believe I did considerably better on the exams compared to what I would have done on my own. I only wish you were in Arizona for bar prep as I am convinced you are the best option compared to all the services out there. I will be referring whoever I can your way and will wait for my friends to thank me later when they pass. Feel free to share this letter with any 1L's that you get in front of in the coming years when discussing your programs. If they only knew what I know now!!

Thank you again,

I want to thank you for your excellent material. I would never have gotten through my first year without your excellent outlines. Unfortunately, I attempted law school once before and fell to the bottom of the curve. I used all the other commercial outlines which were worthless.

I re-applied to law school, was accepted, and this time I used your cassettes with outlines and most importantly, I enrolled in the Exam Two Day Writing Workshop and BINGO! I passed. I am eternally grateful to you for your excellent material and your enthusiasm in teaching.

I look forward to receiving the Constitutional Law outline soon. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Dear Professor Fleming,
Just a quick note to thank you for your excellent MPRE preparation kit. I just discovered that I passed the MPRE examination and received a scaled score of 95.

Hi Professor Jeff Fleming,
I just found out I'm ranked #1 in my class! This makes 2 years back to back! Thanks to Fleming's Fundamentals of Law!

I want you to know how valuable I find your final review tapes to my law school studies. Working full time and going to law school at night does not afford me the luxury of confusion and your tapes make the various law courses so much more understandable. Your tapes cut right to the important data. I have used your tapes through my first year and half of law school and will continue to use them. I recently mailed a copy of your cassette list to a friend in San Francisco who is having trouble. I'm sure once she orders your tapes she will be fine.

Thank you again Professor Fleming. Your tapes are wonderful!

Grades are out! I received a letter from the Dean congratulating me for being recognized on the Dean’s List with a 4.07 GPA and a class ranking of number 3 in a 1st year class of 2 13. I followed everything you said in the Writing Workshop and I received A’s in all of my classes. My professors want to use my Torts & Contracts final exams as sample answers. Your course with its written materials paid off!

I took the Writing Workshop after I received disappointing 1st semester grades despite knowing the law better than most. With Professor Fleming’s help, I was soon able to create answers full of good factual analysis and legal reasoning. Not only did my grades improve, but I found I needed less time studying for exams. I only wish I had taken the Fleming’s Writing Workshop sooner.

Professor Jeff Fleming,
Just wanted to shoot you a thank you note. I only got A’s in my doctrinal classes. I have to give your course a lot of credit since I know it helped me get ahead.

All the best,

After taking the workshop and practicing the techniques you taught us, I was able to write concise answers in my blue book that got me the grades I desired. After all, what’s in the blue book is what really counts.

Is there any other way to write a law school exam? It is with sincere appreciation and gratitude that I tell you I do not think I could have done so well in my first year without Fleming’s. I attended the Writing Workshop primarily because I was scared to death of writing a law school exam. It was at the Writing Workshop that I wrote my first exam enabling me to overcome my apprehension. What a priceless luxury to have a trained attorney read my exam and return it to me with a tape recording of valuable comments and suggestions. I continued to write practice exams throughout the year using your analysis approach. It has really paid off - my first year was more successful than I ever expected.
