Podcast Episode 35: Tackling a California Bar Exam Essay: Corporations

March 5, 2019 By Bar Exam Toolbox Leave a Comment

Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast. Today we are walking through a California bar exam question on corporations. This is one of our series of podcasts on how to approach California bar exam questions.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Why memorizing concise, effective rule statements and attack plans is key to writing passing essays
  • What should (and should not) be included in rule statements in a California bar essay
  • How to use overarching rules to frame your answer, and how to incorporate the sub-rules effectively in your analysis
  • Why every fact in a bar exam essay question matters, especially in shorter hypotheticals
  • How to save time by referencing earlier rule statements when issues overlap
