How Bar Exam Flashcards Can Help You Pass

Flashcards are an educational tool that many students have been utilizing since they were in kindergarten.  They’re cheap, easy to make, and simple to study with – what could be better? With so many complex and intricate details to remember for the bar exam, flashcards can be a valuable tool for some test-takers if used properly. Speaking of benefits, what other benefits can bar exam applicants gain from using flashcards to study for the bar exam? Let’s take a closer look at how flashcards can benefit those studying and preparing for the bar exam.

How Bar Exam Flashcards Can Help You Pass

Flashcards Are Flexible

There’s no “one size fits all” limitation for what flashcards can be used for in relation to the bar exam. For example, flashcards can be used for memorizing legal terminology or learning the elements of a legal test. You can even create flashcards yourself! Creating flashcards and tailoring them to areas of your performance that need improvement can be beneficial. Not only are you creating a powerful study tool but you’re also actively learning substantive material during the process.

Flashcards Are Efficient

There’s no denying that flashcards are quick and easy to study with. Unlike thumbing through a 50+ page outline, flashcards provide the user with instant feedback on his or her performance. There’s no need to search through large swaths of text or Command/Ctrl F anything on your laptop. Instead, all that’s required is for you to flip over the flashcard to reveal the correct answer. Flashcards allow for large areas of substantive material to be broken down into as many segments as you need. This in turn allows studying for the bar exam with flashcards to feel like an active learning experience. Sooner or later, you’ll be shocked at how quickly you can run through hundreds of flashcards.

Some Flashcard Study Ideas

Now that you’re familiar with the benefits of flashcards in preparing for the Bar Exam – it’s time to get busy! If you’re unsure of how to create your own set of bar exam flashcards, don’t worry we’ve got you covered. To begin, make sure that you create flashcards for legal terms you might need to explain during an essay question. As you probably already know, being able to accurately state a legal definition can score you big essay points. For example, flashcards covering the legal definitions of “burglary,” “strict scrutiny,” and “subject matter jurisdiction” might be helpful to include.

Lastly, be sure to mix up the order of your flashcards when testing yourself. Sometimes, we can get too comfortable with the set order of flashcards and can anticipate upcoming cards. Mixing up the order of your flashcards can replicate the experience you’ll have on the MBE, where everything is assorted.
