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."
JK
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."
MR
M. Rodriguez Passed CA Bar, February 2024
★★★★★

Common Questions

Is this for the California Bar specifically?
Yes. While the MBE subjects apply nationally, every section includes California-specific distinctions, CA case law references, and notes on where CA diverges from the majority rule. The Community Property, Wills & Trusts, and Professional Responsibility sections are fully California-focused.
What format is the download?
You receive a high-quality PDF, delivered instantly after purchase through Gumroad. You can print it, annotate it digitally, or view it on any device.
Is this a replacement for a full bar prep course?
No — and we don't claim it is. This is a condensed reference tool designed to work alongside Barbri, Themis, Kaplan, or self-study. Think of it as your go-to quick-reference during active review and in the final weeks before the exam.
Does it cover the February and July exams?
Yes. The substantive law covered is the same for both exam administrations. The cheat sheet covers all subjects tested on both the July and February California Bar Exam.
