Study for the Bar Exam More Efficiently
Your smarts and passion for law have gotten you through law school but now it’s time to take on the bar exam. And while that guy on Suits made it look stupidly easy, the reality of the challenge is the absolute antithesis.
The bar exam is an enormous, academic undertaking. Candidates require several months of full-time study in order to onboard the colossal volume of information they need to pass and pass well so that they are considered desirable to hiring law firms. (That's why we developed Brainscape’s MBE flashcards: to facilitate consistent and valuable daily study!)
We’ve also written a suite of science-backed study guides on what you can expect from the bar and the best ways to study efficiently for this notorious exam. We’ve also got some excellent advice on how to take a practice bar exam so that you can get the most out of this valuable preparation.
