Audio program! (check our CLE Programs page for live versions)
FREE!
We have compiled tips from Certified Legal Specialists teaching at our various Exam Prep courses over three exam period years: 2015, 2017 and 2019.
Click on the button to the right to order our Free Exam Prep Tips package. Be sure to select all three download packages – as some programs we did in 2015 we did not do in 2017 or 2019 and some programs we did in 2017 we did not do in 2019. When you download the packages (from your receipt after you order it for free) it has three separate zip folders, one for each year and you will want to click on each year’s link. These are large files.
We have included tips from three of the most recent years in which we have Exam Prep courses. We held programs for different practice areas in different years, and some of the same practice areas each year (like Civil Appellate Law).
We recommend you take the time to listen to all of them, even those that are not in your practice area, as you’ll pick up some good study tips and advice on how to approach the exam from all of them, regardless of practice area.
Summary for each package year:
2019 CA Legal Specialist Exam Prep Course Study Tips Compilation
2019 has both audio and video programs in it: Appellate Law is an audio program, Tax and Criminal Law are video programs as they were held as Webinars. Each practice area is its own mp3 file.
2017 CA Legal Specialist Exam Prep Course Study Tips Compilation.
All courses in this zip file are audio courses and each practice area has its own mp3 file.
2015 CA Legal Specialist Exam Prep Course Study Tips Compilation Audio
This 2.5 hour Audio Recording contains four of our “Exam Tips/What to Expect/How to Study” sessions from our 2015 Exam Prep courses in one combined .mp3 file. Faculty information on study tips, what to expect, how the bar creates and grades exams, and other insight from specialists who were previously on the commission that wrote and graded the exams, or are specialists who have taken the exam.
The recorded sessions are from topic-specific programs, so they will include tips specifically related to a practice area that might not be your practice area. However, we wanted to provide all of the tip sessions from all of our Exam Prep courses, because you will likely benefit from other tips provided during that program that are not legal area specific. Please use your judgment when discerning which tips apply to your topical area of law and which would apply to any exam, regardless of legal subject matter.
If you have any questions about the Exam Prep. courses, please contact our friendly staff at Pincus Professional Education, and they will help you with any additional information and registration.
