You should get the Barbri conviser mini review and maybe the big green book. You should also try to get the book called like "how to perform your best on the performance test".

It's a good way to develop a plan for the PT

Others have suggested strategies and tactics for the MBE, but I didn't use it

I don't know of a good book for essay prep. I did not like the Barbri books for essay prep.

No worries, I looked online and Barbri books are ridiculously expensive right now. You may be able to find a comprable book from a big test prep service like Kaplan or Themis that is less expensive.
