IL Bar Exam HELP!

I'm a 4th year, previously practiced in New York, and taking the February 2009 Illinois Bar Exam.  I am studying on my own, with BarBri books only.  Any advice on taking the MEE and Illinois essay questions?  Are MEE questions answered using national majority law for MBE topics?  Any advice/trends on what topics are tested on the Illinois essay portion?  PLEASE HELP!!!

Admission to the Illinois Bar on Motion

On December 18th, 2009 micheal.smith898 says:

(i.e., without having to sit for the bar exam)
1. You must be a graduate of an ABA-accredited law school and meet the
educational requirements for admission on exam.
2. You must be admitted to the bar of another jurisdiction and must have
practiced law actively and continuously  for five of the prior seven
years.
3. The other jurisdiction must have a similar policy by which Illinois
attorneys can be admitted without taking that jurisdiction's bar exam.
