I wouldn't feel too bad about it if I were you.  I have not heard of this

See "Who offers patent bar exam review courses?" at 
http://www.patents.com/opportun.htm#review.

Four organizations are listed there, including the Practising Law Institute.  
I am on the faculty of the PLI course, which is scheduled to be offered in 
Manhattan around August 3-10.
