Note-Taking Habits That Actually Work
Take notes as you work through the Legacy Uniform Bar Examination (UBE®) or the NextGen Uniform Bar ExaminationTM (NextGen UBE). Follow these five habits every time you sit down to study.
Don’t just copy and paste. Engage in active learning by treating source material as a starting point; then put concepts into your own words to make new connections and remember them.
Visual learning boosts retention and recall. Save any illustration, chart, or graph that helps a concept click; then add your own notes alongside it.
Bold, italicize, underline, highlight, or build tables with built-in formatting tools; whatever helps it stick. Revisit and reformat until it fits how you study.
Notes only help if you can find them. Rearrange and retitle entries as you go, and add up to six custom tags so you can always search your way back.
Knowing a rule isn’t the same as applying it. The National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE®) tests skills such as legal research and client counseling, not just subject matter. This helps you build entries around how a skill gets tested, not just what the rule says.
Integrated question sets present a single scenario across several questions. Save the facts and explanations that connect them, so you can trace how a single detail changes more than one answer.

Everything stays organized in one place as you move through your prep.

Advanced search lets you pull up exactly what you need by title, keyword, or tag in seconds. The more intentional your organization, the faster you can locate and reinforce the concepts that matter most.
How does My Notebook improve bar exam preparation?
My Notebook helps reinforce learning by keeping your notes, rules, and explanations organized in one place throughout your entire study period. Regular review can help reinforce retention and the ability to spot concepts that need more practice. You can transfer content directly from QBank explanations, with your notes grounded in exam-level material from the start. Over time, your notebook becomes a personalized study guide built around your own weaknesses and learning patterns.
Can My Notebook help me learn from mistakes on NextGen UBE questions?
Yes. My Notebook lets you save key rules, explanations, and notes from questions you miss, so you can review not only the correct answer, but also the reasoning behind it. You can also tag entries by subject or mistake type to identify patterns and focus your review where you need it the most. That kind of targeted tracking and review can be especially helpful as you prepare for the NextGen UBE’s integrated question sets, which require you to apply legal knowledge and skills across related questions and scenarios.
Does My Notebook sync across devices?
Yes. Your saved notes are tied to your UWorld account, so you can continue studying seamlessly between desktop and the UWorld Legal Bar Prep Mobile App. Everything syncs automatically, so a note you create on your laptop is ready to review on your phone during your commute. Your progress is saved and synced between sessions, no matter where or when you study. This makes it easy to keep your notebook active throughout the day, not just during dedicated study blocks.
Can I use My Notebook alongside flashcards and the mobile app?
Yes. My Notebook works alongside flashcards and the mobile app to create one connected study experience. You can move between reviewing notes, drilling flashcards, and working through practice questions, with your progress automatically saved and synced across devices. Notes you build in your notebook can reinforce the same concepts you’re targeting with flashcards, giving you another way to review and retain key concepts.
