Frequently Asked Questions: The Louisiana Bar Examination 31 X. SULC’s Supplemental Bar Review Program 34 XI. Common Law Jurisdictions 36 XII. Resources 44 2 I. Introduction This booklet contains information regarding bar exam preparation. Its purpose is to provide SULC students with general information about preparing for a bar exam generally and the Louisiana bar exam specifically. While the booklet will not answer every question that a student may have regarding bar preparation, it will supply sufficient foundational information regarding the subject and identify various resources which may be consulted for additional information. Therefore, this booklet is purely informational. Students should accept the full responsibility of adequately preparing themselves for a bar exam. SULC’s Class of 2015 recognized the need to collectively work towards fully informing the entire Law Center on the necessary actions required when preparing for and taking a bar exam. The class also recognized that most lawyers – with rare exceptions (see Wisconsin) – must pass a bar exam in order to practice law. -
