California or New York Bar Exam


Gregor2009

Hi All,

I am educated in Australian law and I am looking at gaining admission to practice either in California or New York.

Please could anyone help me with the following questions:
1. I am aware that both exams are difficult but which would be generally easier?
2. In relation to bar review courses, which distance learning/self study providers are highly recommended?
3. How many months should I give myself to prepare for the bar exam?

Of course, any additional information that can be shared with me in relation to this would be greatly appreciated!


Cheers
Greg

1) they're both difficult and i think both have high failure rates (prob also b/c they're the two most lax states re: who they allow to take the bar exam)
2) don't know...barbri, peiper
3) two and half months seems the average (including the bar review course)
