Re: How to pass the CA Baby bar
Posted by 123 on 10/03/08

    I am studyihng law through West Coast School of Law. I'm now into
    my fourth and final year.

    I know . . . there have been a surfeit of postings about this
    school. The school basically just gives you a work book and list of
    reading material and the opportunity to learn the law by studying on
    your own. It is not for everyone. Frankly, on could buy some books
    and learn all the law they need to know to pass the CA Gen. Bar on
    their own. However, unless you study via a correspondence/Distant
    Learning school, or through one of the other alternative legal
    education programs approved by the CA Bar, you will not be allowed
    to sit for the bar exam. WCSL gives me the opportunity to study on
    my own and then take the bar. That's all I want and all I need. Like
    I said, it is not for everyone (probably not even a good option for
    most people, but it works for me).
