Answers are provided for each question, including citations to the MPEP. Taking practice exam questions is a great way to prepare for and pass the Patent Bar Exam. The questions cover the America Invents Act (AIA), New Trial Proceedings, Subject Matter Eligibility (SME) and Patent Law Treaties Implementation Act (PLTIA), along with other important must-know topics. This practice exam book contains a mixture of old questions from the USPTO that were freely distributed, new questions that we have created, and old questions that have been considerably updated. If you can get some of these questions free, why should you pay for them? There were several old exams published and distributed freely online by the USPTO and many of these questions have circulated around the Internet. The problem is, out of the questions that were made freely available, more than half of them are outdated. If you simply take the old exams (which you can still find online) and start studying from them using the currently tested MPEP, you'll be in for a very frustrating experience. Those questions were all created in the early 2000's, therefore they are over ten years old. The PES team has spent hundreds of hours reviewing old exam questions, correcting them, deleting those that no longer apply, updating the MPEP cross referencing in the explanations, and creating new exam questions on new material. Some of the questions in this manual will be similar to questions you see on your exam on test day. However, it's best to use this manual to understand why the correct answer is marked as the best choice, rather than to try to memorize the questions. Learn the material first through careful review of the MPEP or one of our other study aids. Then try your hand at the practice questions in this manual. Get on the road to beginning your career in patent law today.
