At the Bar with a Girl Named Wiki
Patent Agent Alex Nix recently created Patent Bar Questions, a Wiki, inspired by a thread at Intellectual Property Forums, geared toward poor souls preparing for that test that separates the savvy from the savant. The relatively simple site is bifurcated: Key Things to Know for the Patent Bar Exam, a chapter by chapter walkthrough of the MPEP that highlights key sections; and Questions reportedly asked in the Patent Bar Exam, a listing of questions reported by those who have recently taken the exam. Since reported strictly from memory, the questions are not comprehensive, instead reading more like concept areas. The Wiki is currently a wee sparse; hence, better treated as a supplemental source of information, rather than a primary. For those wanting in-depth Patent Bar study materials, one of the many commercial-test-prep companies is still the way to go. Yet, like any good Wiki, Patent Bar Questions is community supported, and so the amount of available insight will inevitably grow.
