1.0 out of 5 stars Worthless!, September 6, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Patent Bar Exam : The Best Test Preparation and Review Course (Paperback)
This book is 50% old exams (old, and current exams are available for free on the USPTO website) and 50% snippets from the MPEP (also available for free on the USPTO). The snippets are have plenty of errors (both typos and in content), its outdated, and provides almost no useful information.

It provides only the highest level of overview that doesn't come close to anything that will help you pass the patent bar. If you don't want to spring for the expensive study aids and think this is a cheap way to get some help, you're going to be very disappointed. You're much better off slugging your way through the old exams and MPEP on your own. If you write down the first sentence in every major section of the MPEP, you've just about wrote this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Waste Your Time or Money, December 12, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Patent Bar Exam : The Best Test Preparation and Review Course (Paperback)
I was looking for a high-level tool to provide context as I studied for the exam, which I passed. This book didn't provide anything that wasn't already available for free elsewhere and represents nothing more than a slipshod attempt to make a fast buck. There is a need for such a book, but this isn't it. I'd recommend "Patent It Yourself" as a supplement to the various professional bar prep materials to get the big picture.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't let the name fool you...., September 26, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Patent Bar Exam : The Best Test Preparation and Review Course (Paperback)
This book is not worth any money, it provides no useful information. It gives a haphazard, oversimplified short outline of the MPEP. The worse part is that the book goes on to publish two exams (the majority of the book) verbatim (questions and answers) from the USPTO website (1999 exams). I am appalled that anyone would insult the intelligence of persons preparing for this exam in this manner.
