Heard that bar exams have become more challenging since the cheating scandal. For those who have taken the exam recently, could you share your advice on how to study and prepare? What strategies or methods worked best for you? Any insight would be appreciated.

Read through everything once, make highlights and/or margin notes at the important parts, use an index, and do practice tests to make sure you can keep up with the timing. If you do that, you have a very high chance of passing. 

All of those suggestions just have a view toward finding answers as quickly as possible in your materials - the more you read and the more practice tests you do, the quicker you'll get at navigating the index and the detailed table of contents. It also obviously helps your timing if you know some answers without looking at your materials.

Honestly it's not worth overthinking it in November since you won't get the materials until April anyway. Don't worry too much.
