Paralegal Candidate Testimonials


 
The Emond practice tests helped me prepare really well for my P1 Exam. I don't think I would have been able to finish the real exam on time if I hadn't taken the time to practice the Emond questions first. I would recommend them to anyone writing.
— Aaysha W.
I would like to express my sincere appreciation for Emond Exam Prep's paralegal practice exams. The structure and content of the exams were incredibly helpful in preparing me for my paralegal exam, which I successfully passed in the summer of 2024 session. The detailed format closely mimicked the actual exam, making it an invaluable tool during my study process. That said, I would love to see further development of these practice exams to make them even more reflective of the real exam, particularly in terms of scenario-based questions and time constraints. This would enhance the preparation experience even further. Overall, Emond's resources played a significant role in my success, and I am grateful for the support they provided during my exam preparation. Thank you for the outstanding materials!
— Omer E.
I am working full time and there was no way I could prepare for the exam by the recommended three time reading so my only option was to use practice exams. I used Emond practice exams as recommended by a friendly and it was a huge help. I highly recommend those exams to anyone preparing.
— Megan K.
I purchased the two Emond Prep examinations and found them to be great resources in helping me with practising my time-management in preparation for the P1 exams. The practice exams were available to me at anytime, and it was also helpful that I could use them to practise more than once and improve my speed without having to pay again. What was also helpful was that for the questions that I answered incorrectly the correct answers were clearly explained so that I knew where I went wrong in my rationale. I would highly recommend these for anyone who wants to achieve success on their P1 examinations.
— Sandra M.
Choosing Emond’s Paralegal Exam Preparation was one of the best decisions I made. The program offers a comprehensive range of resources, including insightful webinars and PowerPoint presentations delivered by seasoned legal professionals. The lecture slides are highly valuable for review, and the timed practice exams closely simulate the real exam, giving me the confidence and preparation I needed.
— Roma P.
Emond's P1 Exam Review Course was able to bring an array of legal professionals such as Deputy Judges, Lawyers, and Justices of the Peace who combined theories and examples from the field, provided a huge breadth of knowledge tying professional ethics with substantive material. I would highly recommend this course because it will help narrow the topics and focus on preparing for the exam.
— Yohne Y.
The P1 Exam Review Course has been extremely informative. The instructors that taught the sessions were experienced lawyers or professors. They were able to explain those questions that my college professors couldn't. Most importantly, they gave me great tips on how to prepare for the upcoming paralegal exam. Finally, I was able to create professional contacts with future paralegals. I feel confident I will pass the licensing exam after doing this course. I would recommend it to anyone that will write the paralegal licensing exam.
— Valdis C.
I highly recommend purchasing the practice exam. Many of the questions were extremely similar to the ones on the exam and it definitely contributed to my success on the exam.
— Arielle G.
I found the practice exam to be extremely helpful when it came to writing the actual exam. It helped me to target my weaknesses and focus on them more. I especially liked that the website provided explanations. Overall, it was helpful and I highly recommend it.
— Kudrat M.
