• Answering questions about cases in front of other people makes me nervous...

  • The atmosphere will be friendly and supportive, and we know there's a lot of learning value in responding to scenarios​

  • The more you practice with these scenarios, the more comfortable you will be when you encounter them in a board exam.  More comfort --> better thinking on your feet.
