I was really stressed out in the beginning of the process trying to figure out a "perfect" schedule for myself and trying to gauge what other people did. Here was a sample studying schedule for the week. I was able to schedule an hour exercise routine once a week, and I took one day off on this schedule. So, this is technically a 6 day study schedule cramming in 7 days of Barbri, so yes, it may look a little crazy, but I got a day off.
Monday to Friday (and Saturdays when I had Barbri class):
7:15-7:30 a.m.: wake up and get ready to go to Barbri
8:15 - 8:45 a.m.: drive to Barbri class and play the PMBR CDs during drive
9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.: attend Barbri lecture
1:00 to 2:15 p.m.: drive home and eat lunch
2:15 to 2:30 p.m.: begin reviewing Barbri lecture notes and formulating outline for the subjects
2:30 to 4:00 p.m.: work on outlines
3:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.: do Barbri homework assignments
6:00 to 6:30 p.m.: eat dinner
6:30 to 9:00 p.m.: finish homework or do extra PMBR problems
9:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.: relax and watch tv or go online
10:30 p.m.: bedtime
Sunday Schedule (no class/off day):
8:30-9:00 a.m.: wake up
If I didn't take the whole day off, I would study or do PMBR questions or a practice Performance Test from 9:00 a.m. to noon.
I would definitely take at least half a day off.
Taking a day off accomplished two things:
1) It kept me refreshed to start this process over on Monday.
2) It gave me motivation to finish all the homework by Sunday so I can go out the play.
