"I have studied with Jackson in Italy and London, while commuting to the Pentagon, or while walking, biking or sitting. Celebration Bar Review is outstanding! Without this versatility, and Jackson's accessibility and positive mentoring, the bar studies would have been a less positive experience. I just received my results from the February 2008 New Jersey Bar Exam, and I passed! My only regret is not having discovered this program earlier. Since law school graduation, I have been activated for military duty for extended tours, and scheduling exam dates and studying was problematic. Until I found Celebration Bar Review, I was unsuccessful on four past bar exams. My confidence has soared. I want to thank Jackson and Sara and their Celebration Bar Review course, and offer an enthusiastic endorsement." William Schwab, PASSED Feb 2008 NJ Exam

"Jackson, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me PASS the New Jersey February 2008 Bar exam. I am confident that the reason why I passed this third time around is because your course REALLY WORKS ! I think your essay writing method is superb and really came through for me during the exam. When I found myself running out of time or too nervous, I knew exactly what step was next and was able to write it all down. If one really practices the method it becomes second nature, there is no doubt in my mind that Celebration Bar Review helped me think about the exam in a completely different way and lead me to SUCCESS ! the MBE questions were also a tremendous help, because I got a 144 on this MBE which is the highest score I have received ! A million thanks for your words of encouragement and for your personalized attention, your course truly is the complete package...."
Passed Feb 2008 NJ Exam
 

"I just wanted to thank you for all your help getting me to pass the NJ Bar! I had previously taken another bar exam using BarBri with unsuccessful results.  I believe that your approach is way better for those of us who don't learn simply by filling in blanks on prepared outlines.  Thanks again for every thing!"
Andrea Sharrocks PASSED July 2007 Exam

"Good News! I PASSED!  YEAH!!!!!!   I am planning to take the California Bar in July and  I believe that will pass this test also by applying the Celebration Bar Review method to my studying. 

Thank you so much for letting God (Jesus) use you to help me.  I will let you know how the CA bar results go in November and I will recommend your program to everyone I know! " D.W.   PASSED Feb 2007 Exam
 

"Just a note to let you know that I passed the NJ bar...now I'll be ordering the Celebration materials for NY. I used other review materials when I took the Vermont exam a few years ago and while I think the presentation of the substantive matter in the outlines and lectures in an engaging, understandable, practical and focused manner is enough to make Celebration materials stand out from the other reviews, I believe it's the extras like the personal study plan, the podcasts, and the intro tapes on test strategy and test anxiety that make Celebration Bar Review the most complete review program. The guidance your program provided kept me focused and allowed me to tailor my study plan to ensure I covered all I needed to even when I had to revise my plan a few times to accommodate other responsibilities or obligations.  Thank you for your dedication to the the bar review profession and for producing such an excellent program!"
Stacy Butler PASSED July Exam

"I passed both NY/NJ while taking no time off from work using your course. Thanks again!" Terrence Ricaforte, PASSED Feb 2007 Exam
 

"I just wanted to let you know that I passed the February 2007 New Jersey Bar Exam!  The mental preparation you provided was a second to none. No one person is the same so your personalized study plan and approach to the exam treats each person like an individual. Thank you so much! I will never forget you and I am sure I will see you soon for another exam." Roger Ermola PASSED Feb. Exam
 

"Thank you for all you had done to aid me in passing the bar exam.  As you are aware I had taken the bar previously three times and failed it each time.  My essay writing was what really hurt me on all those previous attempts.   I thank you for your aid in giving me an approach to essay writing which really worked. "

PASSED Feb. Exam

  "I just received notice that I passed the Feb. 2005 bar exam.  I was very skeptical that after two tries, that I would ever be successful.  I had passed NY the first time and sort of gave up on NJ.  Then someone suggested Jackson and Celebration Bar Exam Review.  In hindsight, I am so thankful.  The vast amount of practice questions for the MBE and Jackson's firm but skillful constructive criticism of my essay questions was right on point.  He changed my approach from law school to being a lawyer and responding accordingly.  I am so excited; thanks for all the encouragement and great "sound bytes" along the way.  When things looked bleak, Jackson always knew what to say, and how to say it!!!!   Thanks so much-- Jackson!!!!!"
Brian Gorman,
PASSED Feb. Exam

"Great news, I passed!!! I can't thank you enough for the course and especially your mentoring. This was the second time taking the NJ bar.  The first time I took another bar course which left me feeling completely lost and totally burnt out.  I had studied for endless hours and got no where. 
Celebration Bar Review not only made studying manageable but it also restored my confidence.  Whenever anyone asks who I recommend for bar preparation, I will send them to you. Again, thanks."

Nicole Carlo-Morales PASSED Feb Exam
 

Thank you to Jackson and Celebration Bar Review.  I took the July 2004 bar and passed with a scaled score of 148.  I had not taken a bar in ten years and was concerned about a return to the exam room.  However, Jackson's program worked.  If you are a working professional, this is the program to take.  I am an Army Reservist and have been on active duty since January 2003.  I could only study at night and on weekends and holidays.  I took no "time off" to study.  In fact, when I wanted to, I could not, because I was hip-deep in a courts martial (the week before the exam, no less).  Yet because I worked his program, I was prepared and I passed.  The bottom line is I did all the assignments and I passed.  I did not take any other prep course (despite the urgings of my friends and colleagues.)  I did not need them.  I firmly believe if you commit to the program, you will pass.  I am living proof of it. "

PASSED July Exam

"Mark me down for a pass for your New Jersey statistics. One of many for you I am sure.  I would like to thank you for your help.  Your Celebration Bar Exam Review course completely prepared me for my bar exam.  When I walked out of the second day of testing, I felt very confident that I had passed because during those two days I was not surprised by any of the bar examiners questions.  What I saw on the bar exam was nothing more than different versions of the questions you had me studying in the comfort of my home.  You have this thing nailed!!!!"
Adam J. Heck  PASSED July NJ Exam
 

"I just wanted to let you know that I passed the New Jersey bar.  Thanks so much for putting together a good program.  Whenever asked about bar review I point people in the right direction -- to Celebration Bar Exam Review. Another satisfied customer!"
Constantine Soupios PASSED July NJ Exam

"Just a quick note to let you know that I passed the NJ Bar.  By way of background, I graduated from law school in 1981 and have specialized in international taxation since then.  Tax in not a common subject on bar exams so when my wife and I decided to change our lifestyle and move to a new state, my expectations for passing a new bar were low.  I found your course to be very practical and very time efficient.  It was a good value and I would recommend it to others."
Jeffrey Kemp PASSED July NJ Exam

 "I just received my exam results, and I passed the NJ bar!  I received a scaled MBE score of 157. Thanks for a great course!!  I have two young children and worked full time through the study/preparation period.  Your study materials and convenient essay feedback provided a fantastic way for me to study and review at times that accommodated my schedule."

Chris Klein  PASSED Feb 2003 Exam

"I passed, thank you for all of your help.  The structure of your course made preparing for the bar exam a manageable task.  Although I was skeptical at first I decided to listen to your advice and it paid off.  Your course is great and I recommend it to anyone who is thinking about taking the bar exam."    

James Kennedy PASSED Feb 2003 Exam

"I passed!  Thanks so much.  Your course was great!"

Doris Merrick, PASSED July 2002 Exam

"The letter I was hoping for came in the mail today! This was my second time taking New Jersey.  The first time I took the bar, I reviewed with Bar Bri.  This time, I used Celebration Bar Exam Review and passed! If someone was studying for the NJ bar (or one of the other states you review for) it wouldn't too hard for me to recommend which review course to use! My scaled multistate score was 17 points higher than last time and no doubt that Celebration helped me get there. Celebration Bar Exam Review is also great for somebody who is  working full time and only has evenings and weekends available to them.  If I can work and review for a bar exam, and pass the exam, anybody can!  Thank you Jackson!"

Chris Johnson, PASSED July 2002 Exam

"Got word on Friday that I passed my NJ Bar exam the first time out.  Did pretty well too.  The best part is that I did not have to leave my house once to study all winter long.  Your [Celebration Bar Exam Review] program really is the best and most convenient way to study and I have told all of my classmates that are studying now to forget the others-don't waste time commuting, parking, etc-study from home-break when you want-truly be the master of your domain.  All of my classmates thought I was crazy not going with the "big guys" but I know what works for me and obviously I was correct.  I am so excited-thanks for your help along the way!  Whew, what a relief!"
Chad Nifoussi

" I'm very happy to report that I passed the NJ bar exam!  I was admitted in NY, but took my first job in NJ.  It was great to be able to study on my own schedule and not be tied down by traveling to a site to watch video tapes every evening.  The Celebration Bar Exam Review course was thorough and gave me the confidence that I needed to be relatively relaxed at exam time.  The essay reviews and comments were very helpful too.  Thank you!"
Joe Geller, Esquire Passed the NJ July  2002 exam

"As a mother of three who had not worked in several years, I wasn't even considering taking N.J.'s bar exam when my family moved here from Maryland. I thought there was no way I could pass, but when I decided to try, thankfully I discovered Celebration Bar Exam Review. The lectures were complete, yet concise and easy to listen too. . .much of the time during stroller rides or while sitting at a playground. There were endless amounts of practice questions and Jackson's constructive criticism of my essay answers was very helpful. ... .something you'd never find at BarBri. I would, without hesitation, recommend Celebration Bar Exam Review to anyone, whether taking an exam for the first time or 21st time.

Thanks to Jackson and his staff for everything and making what I thought would be virtually impossible, possible. "Joanne Sinsky

"I passed the July Bar...As a practicing attorney I really appreciated not having to go and sit in a classroom after a full day of work. I loved being able to listen to the tapes on my own time. The quality of the outlines and lectures was superb. The best feature, however, was being able to send in answers to actual exam questions and discuss them by phone with my mentor. I have recommended your course to several friends because I know that the Celebration Bar Exam Review paced method and individual attention can give them the support they need to pass the exam."

J. Murphy

"I passed with an MBE scaled score of 160!  You have a great course and I will recommend it highly in the future.  I hope all of your students had much success with the bar."

Wendy Farrell - Passed the NJ Feb 2002 exam

"I just received notice that I passed the New Jersey exam. I used your essay method, which I feel is the best in the country. I failed the NJ exam 3 times earlier using Barbri, West and Fleming. No one could help me but you!"
