Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, we have the first episode of our new "Quick Tips" series. Join us as we discuss the usefulness of spaced repetition as a learning tool, especially when we're faced with overwhelming amounts of information to memorize during bar exam prep.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The science behind spaced repetition
• The key to spaced repetition learning
