Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, we're discussing how to balance the law and your analysis on a bar exam essay, and why the ratio of law to analysis may be very different than you think!

In this episode, we discuss:

Why memorizing the law is important, but not enough to pass the bar exam
How much law you really need to know for the bar exam
How to balance law and analysis, and what the ideal ratio is for a good essay
What you do need to memorize, and how to use it effectively
What to do when you just don’t know the law
Resources to help you learn the law you do need
