If you're studying law at the University of the Pacific's McGeorge School of Law, the Lorenzo Patino School of Law at University of Northern California, or any other Sacramento area school, Varsity Tutors can help you by providing a Sacramento bar exam prep course that may be just what you need to get your studies on track. If you've made it this far towards a license to practice law, you've already invested considerable time and expense into your education. Passing the bar exam may be one of the last hurdles you'll face on your way towards making good on that investment, and a prep course can give you extra resources to draw upon as you pursue success on the exam.
What topics will a Sacramento bar exam class cover?
The bar exam varies depending on the state you're looking to be licensed in, so we'll take a brief look at what you might be faced with. California uses two exams: the MPRE and the MBE. The MPRE, or Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination, is a test that's intended to assess your understanding of issues of professional ethical conduct that concern lawyers and judges. The test is two hours long and is comprised of multiple-choice questions. A truncated list of the topics you'll see on the MPRE includes client confidentiality, regulation of the legal profession, potential conflicts of interest, disciplinary rules regarding the law profession, and more.
The MBE, or Multistate Bar Examination, is also a multiple-choice test. The test is six hours long and spans 200 questions, which are intended to measure your ability to use fundamental legal principles and reasoning to set of factual data. The exam outline includes subjects like civil proceedings, constitutional law, criminal law and procedure, and other, similar subjects. A Sacramento bar exam course can cover not only the legal knowledge that you'll have to apply on the MPRE and the MBE, but also assist you in developing test-taking skills that may prove crucial when you're required to focus on complex subject matter for six hours straight in a high-pressure environment.
How will a Sacramento bar exam course help me learn all this?
The bar exam can be intimidating, but with guided review sessions from a professional bar exam instructor, it doesn't have to be. Doing well on the exam can require a fairly comprehensive knowledge of legal principles, and you'll have to show excellent reasoning and analysis skills. Your instructor can break down the exam step-by-step so you can build an understanding of what you'll have to tackle when you sit down to take the test. You'll learn through an online classroom environment, where you'll be able to see, hear, and speak with your teacher and classmates just as if you'd all gathered to review for the test in person. In addition to presenting lessons on the material, your instructor may have the class take part in group discussions, too, so you can engage with diverse perspectives on law. You may be able to imagine how useful this type collaborative study can be when you're trying to come to grips with every angle of the tricky ethical issues that you might be required to analyze on the test or in developing your argumentative skills.
You'll be able to reserve one-on-one time with your instructor, too, so you can meet outside of class to go over any topics that you're having a particularly hard time with to get expert input and clarify issues quickly. We aim to provide you with convenience and flexibility in other ways as well. The online format of a Sacramento bar exam class means that you won't have to worry about commuting, so you can more easily fit a class into your busy day and you can spend your study time more efficiently. Plus, you can access your live class from any location that you have an internet connection, so you can study somewhere that you find comfortable and free of distractions. There are many class meeting times on offer, so you can find a class that's most effective for your individual needs.
How can I get signed up?
Give Varsity Tutors a call, and you can speak with one of our educational consultants, who will be happy to provide you with more information about what you can expect from a Sacramento bar exam course. You'll be able to discuss scheduling, find a course, and get signed up easily. New course sections are starting every month, so there may be a course that's just right for your needs right around the corner. Passing the bar exam is important, but thorough preparation may not only give you a leg up on the exam itself but help you develop skills that can pay off further down the line, should you become licensed as a lawyer. Reach out today, and you may be setting yourself up to pursue long-term success.
