Basic Information on the Bar Exam

Basic information about the Bar Examination is available in the Online Student Handbook and from the Registrar's Bar Admission Page.

The Online Student Handbook Section 9.2 provides specific information about the subjects tested on the California Bar Examination along with the related courses in law school. Although you are not required to do so, we strongly recommend that every student plan to take each of the Bar-related courses. To ensure that you are able to enroll in all of these important courses, you should not leave any of them until your last semester.
