Practice question
After three unsuccessful Bar attempts, an applicant enrolls only in a short private pre-Bar review and claims this alone necessarily meets amended Rule 138, Section 15. No regular fourth-year review classes have been completed. Which is correct?
- Any private review automatically satisfies every requirement
- Three unsuccessful attempts permanently bar every further attempt
- Only self-study is required
- Section 15 requires the prescribed regular fourth-year review and pre-Bar course showing, with its completion and examination windows; the short course alone is insufficient
- The applicant may ignore all review requirements after three failures
