Last-Minute Information On The Online November Baby Bar

The State Bar California continues to conduct the California Bar Examination and the First-Year Law Students Examination (the “Baby Bar”) under special circumstances caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The Baby Bar will next be offered to examinees on November 17, 2020. The test will be offered remotely

Applicants required to pass the First-Year Law Students’ Exam will not receive credit for any law study until the applicant passes the exam. Passage of this test must be achieved within the first three consecutive administrations after the applicant becomes eligible to take the exam. If the applicant passes subsequent to this occurring, credit will be received only for the first year of law study.

Because the California State Bar is administering the test remotely online, the following procedures and rules are in place for the exam:

  • First, applicants must verify their identification by logging into the exam a least 15 minutes prior to the posted start time of 7:45 a.m.
  • MORNING SESSION: the exam will be administered in four, one-hour sessions (one-hour per essay question). There will be a 15-minute break between each one-hour question session.
  • Other than scheduled breaks for the morning session, applicants are not permitted to leave the view of their web camera unless they finish the session early and upload their answers.
  • AFTERNOON SESSION: the exam will be split into two 90-minute sessions, each containing 50 multiple-choice questions. There will be a 15-minute break between the sessions.
  • Other than the scheduled break for the afternoon session, applicants are not permitted to leave the view of their web camera unless they finish early and upload their answers.

Results from the November 2020 Baby Bar Exam are scheduled to be released electronically through the Applicant Portal to applicants on February 26, 2021.

It is crucial in the last week before the test to observe regular sleep patterns. It is a good idea to go to bed and get up at the same time you will go to bed and get up on test day. If you have not already, take a practice test under real test conditions to measure endurance. Lastly, make sure you get some relaxation to minimize the amount of stress that you are undoubtedly experiencing. Good luck!

California State Bar Standard and Required Disclosure

The method of instruction at this law school for the Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree program is principally in physical classroom facilities.

Students enrolled in the J.D. degree program at this law school who successfully complete the first year of law study must pass the First-Year Law Students Examination required by Business and Professions Code 6060(h) and Rule VIII of the Rules Regulating Admission to Practice Law in California as part of the requirements to qualify to take the California Bar Examination.

A student who passes the First-Year Law Students Examination within three (3) administrations of the examination after first becoming eligible to take it will receive credit for all legal studies completed to the time the examination is passed. A student who does not pass the examination within three (3) administrations of the examination after first becoming eligible to take it must be promptly disqualified from the law school’s J.D. degree program. If the dismissed student subsequently passes the examination, the student is eligible for re-enrollment in this law school’s J.D. degree program, but will receive credit for only one year of legal study.

Study at, or graduation from, this law school may not qualify a student to take the bar examination or to satisfy the requirements for admission to practice in jurisdictions other than California. A student intending to seek admission to practice law in a jurisdiction other than California should contact the admitting authority in that jurisdiction for information regarding the legal education requirements in that jurisdiction for admission to the practice of law.
