Ave Maria School of law provides a series of bar materials and classes to third year students. Those materials as well as in-class activities will be listed here.
Goal: To adequately train and fully prepare students for the Florida and out-of-state bar examinations.
Program Components: For-Credit Bar Review Courses and a Supplemental Bar Preparation Program
Once the commercial bar courses are completed, Ave students can attend a 5-Day final review of the Florida subjects and a 3-Day final review of the Multistate subjects.
There will be no shortage of opportunities to maximize your chance of passing the most difficult and the most important exam you will ever take.
