CA Bar case studies

The California Bar Examination is the licensing examination administered by the State Bar of California for people seeking admission to practice law in the state - typically law school graduates and attorney applicants who have completed applicant registration and filed a bar exam application through the Applicant Portal. It is offered twice each year, in February and July. The February 2027 administration runs Tuesday, February 23, and Wednesday, February 24, in person at designated test sites across California; the July 2027 administration is scheduled for Tuesday, July 27, and Wednesday, July 28. The examination combines written sessions and multiple-choice testing: for February 2027 the State Bar contracts with ExamSoft as the delivery vendor for the written sessions, which applicants type on personal laptops, and the 200 multiple-choice questions are drawn from the Multistate Bar Examination created by the National Conference of Bar Examiners, answered on a Scantron sheet with a No. The CA Bar case studies are 5 cases and about 2,139 words.
