What Customers Are Saying

By Mat Gordon, Ph.D., Ann Arbor, Michigan
"I studied between 6-8 hours a day for about 3 1/2 weeks over my law school Christmas break. I passed on my first try! [...] I also found the drills to familiarize myself with the table of contents of the most important chapters very helpful; when I was faced with a question I needed to look up, I could often go directly to the section containing the answer. I finished one of my three hour sections with twenty minutes to spare!"

By Dan Vacar, Ph.D., San Diego, California
"As I prepared for the Patent Bar, there was no better indicator of preparation readiness then my ability to recognize the MPEP subject matter covered by the set of TAPRE flash cards. When I could breeze through the TAPRE flash cards, I knew I was ready to pass the Patent Bar. And I did."
