Bar Readiness programs are designed to\u00a0help students transition from law school study and exams\u00a0to bar preparation and the bar exam. This transition begins in the final year of law school and continues through the 10 weeks preceding the actual exam administration.<\/p>\n
Multistate Bar Strategies (MBS) is an advanced survey of legal analysis and communication focusing on the Multi-State Bar Examination subjects, with writing exercises designed for graduating students preparing to transition to bar study. The course covers planning and preparation techniques for completing assignments involving substantive areas of the law, analyzing and solving bar essay and multiple choice questions, and communicating legal analysis in writing. Components of the course include an online memory enhancement program, strategic approaches to essay writing and MBE question formats, and a particular emphasis on essay writing under exam-like conditions.<\/p>\n
This class is not a substitute for a commercial bar review course.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Performance Test (PT) accounts for approximately 26% of a bar taker\u2019s exam score, and, in essence, is equal in score to two bar exam essay questions. \u00a0Given the significance of this portion of the bar examination, La\u00a0Verne Law has created a Performance Test Strategies course that focuses on helping students develop analytical and organizational methods essential to successfully completing the PT. The PT Strategies course covers topics including managing a case file, synthesizing legal authority, performing objective and persuasive drafting tasks, time management and perhaps most importantly,\u00a0following directions<\/em>. Each student in the PT Strategies course completes four performance tests during the semester as homework assignments. \u00a0Students also practice and develop their skills by drafting several written assignments over the course of the semester that either target specific areas that need improvement or build on lessons discussed in class.<\/p>\n The\u00a0Bar Exam Strategic Training\u00a0<\/em>program (BEST) is a complimentary program for La\u00a0Verne law graduates that provides comprehensive and targeted assistance during the bar exam review period.\u00a0This customized program is not a standalone bar review course, but works in tandem with BARBRI to provide La\u00a0Verne law graduates with the best opportunity to perform well on the California Bar Exam. BEST begins immediately after graduation and runs continuously through the last day of the exam. \u00a0Bar examinees receive a customized paced schedule, proctored simulated exams, progress tracking, essay and performance test grading with detailed feedback, general and stress relief counseling, and various other guidance on bar study and exam strategies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bar Readiness programs are designed to\u00a0help students transition from law school study and exams\u00a0to bar preparation and the bar exam.
