Pre-Bar Review I - Remote
This course surveys core U.S. legal doctrine in a number of areas including Tort Law, Contracts, and Civil Procedure. These core subjects will be reviewed and analyzed and then serve as the foundation for practical application on the Uniform Bar Examination. Students will learn fundamental strategies in reading, outlining, and writing essays as well as answering multiple choice questions. In addition, students will be exposed to the Multistate Performance Test and have the opportunity to work through several simulations. Throughout the semester, students will receive guided feedback on their essay writing to improve their Bar Exam strategies and skills. Students will do significant in-class and at-home timed practice work to learn how to directly apply these skills to bar exam-like settings.
