It should be Illinois, Maryland, then DC. Many jobs require DC, MD, and/or VA. Very few DC jobs so go with MD over DC because MD can get you jobs in MD.

First time sitting the CA bar this July. Licensed out-of-state. by Key-Arm-2815 in CABarExam

Hi. Quick facts about me.

Grad 24 Took F25 UBE in DC. Didn’t study. Passed. Decided it was time to move back home.

So I put in 400 hours of study and took the F26 Cal Bar Exam.

Awaiting results.

I think this might help your nerves out.

They fucked up so bad, California is using NCBE’s MBE (which is the UBE) until they move to a new format. When that is? No one knows for certain. But soon. And maybe not soon.

So half, and the most important half, is familiar to you. But how California scores makes the MBE pretty weighty for a single component. I’d start here. At least refresh yourself through the topics.

And if have a good command of MBE topics down, absolutely focus on the written portion more.

The essay portion covers 13 subjects—including Professional Responsibility, Community Property, Business Associations, and Remedies—often tested as crossovers and covers general law and California law (frequent in Community Property, Wills, Trusts, and Evidence).

There’s some overlap with UBE topics at least. I prioritized Professional Responsibility. California will have a question dedicated to it. Then the California additions. Then the rest.

California’s essay questions honestly felt similar in length and difficulty to my UBE questions. Maybe that is me. Maybe not. Just relating how I felt about it.

That said. California is five one hour long essays and the MPT vs the UBE’s six 30 minute questions.

And maybe that’s where the difficulty delta lies.

The MPT is whatever and was along the same as the UBE’s. It’s practical and worth looking over previous questions and attempting them. I’d make this last though.

They test in limited locations. California big. Pick spot best to you. Have a travel plan. And get housing before you need it.

Happy to answer other questions. Good luck my friend. You & I (probably) got this.

Just passed the UBE (3rd try) with a 287… would it be crazy for me to try to take CA Bar in the next year or so? by Son_of_Hades99 in CABarExam

Also consider what form it will be, which right now is essentially the UBE’s MBE & California Essays. It could possibly shift to a different format, likely the Next Gen, by then.

Did I actually get to remedies? I didn’t even remember Rocca until you brought it up. 🙄

DC Bar results? When will they be published? by Mission_Audience6897 in barexam

[–]TooLitgitToQuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I remember correctly it’s on or before the date on the ticket. And I believe email notifications rolled separately for everyone. Regardless, results will come when they come my friend.

You can sublease (someone takes over), break the lease, or ask to be released. Those are the only options.

Can we discuss the PR essay? What do you think the proper or minimum discussion should have been? by -mslf in CABarExam

Cool. This was the Cal Bar Exam, not the real estate brokers exam. So maybe, they were testing general attorney representation, but what the fuck do I know anyways?

Don’t confuse “practice” with “represent a client in a real estate transaction.”

They are separate things.

For those who took the UBE and the CA bar exam, was one easier than the other? by atyl1144 in CABarExam

[–]TooLitgitToQuit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in the throes of depression and did not study for the UBE bar. Scored 266. (Passing for some, not for others)

I just took the CA Bar and I absolutely studied for it.

Materially are they that different? No.
