There is no new model paper released on the basis of the new syllabus. However, note that the old format of the question paper, which was followed from 2010 till January 2012, is still accessible here, on the website of the Bar Council of India, and frequently shows up in searches pertaining to the bar exam on Google and other search engines. You should not rely on this question paper, as it pertains to the old format, which is no longer valid. For guidance, please refer to the mock papers and the past years papers on the BarHacker platform.  \n􀁸 The new model paper, which is not available any more on the Bar Council of India’s website, had some shocking questions (about which we will discuss later) . The Bar Exam in December 2012 (the fourth AIBE), and the exams that followed in 2013 and early 2014 also featured similar questions. There was significant deviation from the question pattern that was followed in the earlier Bar Exams. Hence, your preparation for the Bar Exam in September 2014 will be different from how you would have prepared for it earlier.  \nThe past years’ papers of the 4th and 5th All India Bar Exam are accessible on  \nBarHacker.  \n􀁸 What is the difference between the current syllabus for the 7th AIBE and the previous syllabi?  \n© iPleaders. This report is licensed only to BarHacker students. Any unauthorized use, circulation or reproduction will be liable to action under applicable law.  \nChanges to the Bar Exam & 6 Step Preparation Strategy  \nThe current syllabus is a modified version of the December 2012 syllabus, which was followed for the 4th, 5th and 6th All India Bar Exam. The new syllabus has certain additional subjects with a different distribution of marks, so preparation strategy will need to be modified accordingly.  \nThe volume of preparation required now has increased. New chapters have been added to BarHacker to provide guidance on additional subjects for this purpose.  \n􀁸 What impact can it have on the exam format?  \nThe Bar Council has not released a new model question paper, or provided any study materials for the 7th AIBE. In the absence of any study materials, we are inclined to believe that the September 2014 edition will be similar to the December 2012 format itself, the only difference being that there will be questions from more subjects, and the weightage given to the subjects will be as per the new syllabus. In any case, this is the safest and most risk-free preparation method.  \n© iPleaders. This report is licensed only to BarHacker students.

When the syllabus was first modified, the exam format changed significantly. This also coincided with Bar Exam ceasing supply of official study materials. As a result, most questions were from bare acts, with some questions testing knowledge of trivia, case laws or concepts.  \nThe second modification to the syllabus has added a few subjects.
