Re: Georgia Bar Exam Prep

More | Report Post

My girlfriend and I are both taking Ga. Bar in Feb also. I
understand the topics they test but I'm wondering if they group
the subjects at all. Any information? Like is there one Q on
Civ Pro, one on Business , one on comm paper/secured
transaction? Any idea on the format? (other than what barbri
can tell us).
