Just found this Duolingo-like bar prep app.

It was free, no ads so far, and it's surprisingly fun. I'm taking FL, so it's been nice to review some of the weird deadline variations here in a quick way. Seems to be IOS only. Figured i'd pass it along because I'm having fun with it. LINK

What is the correct language for strict scrutiny?

I've seen three different definitions of strict scrutiny for both FL and Fed Con Law -

  1. Government has burden to show law is narrowly tailored to achieve a compelling state interest.

  2. Government has burden to show law is necessary to achieve a compelling state interest.

  3. Government has burden to show law is narrowly tailored to achieve a compelling state interest by the least restrictive means necessary.

Which is correct?

Florida Essays and WTI

Hi yall, I am studying for Part A only as I took the bar almost two year ago in another state

I just finished my first WTI video for torts. I noticed Grossman doesn’t really dive into intentional torts. Do we not need to know the intentional torts learned for MBE on Florida essays?

I will start going through the essays on the FBBE website but haven’t started yet, but that may answer my question at some point.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I am done and paying it forward

I am a full-time solo health care businesses owner, solo parent 2, with a hectic and busy home life.

I drove to Tampa with fever, but I almost turned around midway. I went to the exam with fever and almost left in the afternoon cause I had no idea what I was reading…

And guess what?
I passed!!!! I’m done with this grueling process.

I’d like to give away my study books and materials preferably to a single parent or someone in financial hardship. Everything is in Miami beach for free pick up.

Believe in yourself even when you can’t anymore. Push yourself harder and harder even if it makes you cry (which it did to me!). And then be sure to show up. You got this! 💪💪💪

Bar prep + Essay Preparation

How do you find time to seriously practice essays when the bar prep schedule is already packed wall to wall?

I’m doing Themis and every single day is loaded with tasks, lectures, practice questions, etc. I already do Adaptibar questions on top of what I do everyday.

For the essays, I’d like to rep hundreds of rule statements practice, do What’s the Issue, and other essay related stuff. But when? The bar prep schedule barely leaves breathing room, let alone time to sit down and grind through essay after essay on top of everything else. By the end of the day, I’m beat so I definitely can’t do this after a day of bar prep. Tips? Thanks.

How close or far am I to pass MBE portion?

Hey all, for all of you who already passed MBE, how far or close am I to pass this portion of the bar exam? I can’t figure!

Consent and waiver form require consideration

I took a practice torts essay recently for FL-specific law that was about an injury at a business that required people to sign a waiver form before engaging in the activity. I wrote about implied consent if the form was defective and knowledge of the risk so they assumed the risk. However, the model answer ended up neglecting that entirely and went into an offer, acceptance, and consideration analysis instead.

When did consent forms require offer, consideration, and acceptance? One doesn’t need to provide consideration for consent or assumption of the risk to stick. Am I missing something here? I went to law school outside of FL

Retaking in July + Sick Parent

I failed February by 2 points & have to retake the exam in July. I need advice because my father is dying. His recent cancer treatment caused his brain activity to slow down and he has lost the ability to say more than 2 words at a time. I don’t know how to focus on bar prep right now but I have to or else I will forget everything. Any words of encouragement or magic study tricks would be most appreciated.
