These skills, however, are applicable across jurisdictions. By the end of the course, successful students will have: (1) created essay templates for a variety of topics and sub-topics for the bar exam; (2) developed the ability to use issues checklists to write well-organized and thorough essay answers within the one hour allotted by the California Bar Examiners for each essay; (3) developed the ability to identify legal issues on essay and MBE questions; (4) developed the ability to identify and analyze legally significant facts; (5) developed a strategy for organizing an answer to a performance exam; (6) practiced writing answers to essay and performance exams; (7) practiced doing and reviewing MBE questions; and (8) developed the ability to self-assess their performance on essay, multi-state and performance exam practice questions.  \nCourse Methodology: This course has been designed as a significant departure from traditional law school instruction and course work because it teaches a set of study skills that are unique to the Bar Exam—and because it begins your preparation for that exam. Using materials from Western State, U-World, Themis Bar Review and Mary Basick/Tina Schindler’s Essay Book, you will follow a rigorous weekly program and become proficient in employing the following skills:  \n(1) viewing substantive lecture, filling in workbooks and doing assessment questions;  \n(2) creating essay templates;  \n(3) Completing writing assignments and self-assessments;  \n(4) using a method to identify key facts/issues and outline an essay answer;  \n(5) writing and assessing essay exams through graded assignments taking and assessing MBE questions;  \n(6) developing a strategy for organizing the file and library of a 90-minute performance exam; and  \n(7) writing and assessing performance exams through graded assignments, in-class work and out-ofclass ","cbCaiv8qk7DZI6bB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiv8qk7DZI6bB","pdf",1509927,"English","# Class Schedule and Contacts\n## Professors and Office Hours\n## Course Website and Enrollment\n# Course Objectives\n# Course Methodology\n# Course Subjects\n## Essay Course Subjects\n## MBE Course Subjects\n# Course Materials","[{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of the Basic Bar Studies (BBS) course?\",\"answer\":\"The course introduces study skills needed to succeed on the Essay, Multi-State Bar Exam (MBE), and Performance Test sections of the California Bar Examination, while noting these skills apply across jurisdictions.\"},{\"question\":\"What skills are students expected to develop by the end of the course?\",\"answer\":\"Students will create essay templates, use issues checklists to write organized essay answers, identify legal issues and legally significant facts, develop performance test organization strategies, and practice writing and reviewing essay, performance, and MBE questions for self-assessment.\"},{\"question\":\"Which subjects are covered in the Essay Course and MBE Course?\",\"answer\":\"The Essay Course covers Torts, Contracts, Constitutional Law, and Professional Responsibility, plus the Performance Test types (Persuasive, Objective, Wild Card).
