What Bar Takers Say

"This is the only cheat sheet I used for my last two weeks before the bar. The CA vs. majority rule callouts alone saved me on three essay questions. Worth every penny."

J. Kim Passed CA Bar, July 2024

"I failed the bar twice before. Third time I used this alongside my prep course and finally passed. The Community Property section especially — the Pereira/Van Camp breakdown is clearer than anything my course had."

M. Rodriguez Passed CA Bar, February 2024

"The Performance Test guide is alone worth the price. I finally understood the format, what to read first, and how to structure my time. My PT scores jumped significantly."

T. Patel 1L, UC Hastings
