Publisher's summary

A perennial Amazon #1 Best Seller, now in an audio book format!

"Best investment I've ever made, I failed my first bar exam and could not have passed without this book!” Julie T, Esq, May 8, 2021

“I passed, first try, without these rules I would have definitely failed.” Caroline C, Esq, January 24, 2021

“Ed’s book is all you need for the rules you NEED for California Bar Essays." Dan A, Esq, February 25, 2021

Bar Candidates are required to memorize massive quantities of law, frequently written by some of the the world's best authors—the Justices of the United States Supreme Court. And as you learned in 1L, mining the rule of law from complex Supreme Court decisions is no easy feat. Enter this audio book, a concise, all-encompassing reference to the rules required for passing the Bar Exam. Sorted by essay topic, this book balances the need between listing all required elements and keeping it short and simple, with one goal in mind—compiling all of the necessary rules in a format that is easy to understand, easy to remember, and easy to recall during the Exam.

Revised in March, 2024, this book includes chapters detailing a plan for bar exam success.

In fact, this audio book includes the rules the author, and many, many others have used to pass the bar exam, in California as well as in jurisdictions throughout the United States.

Studying one, succinct version of the rules makes memorization easier, which is exactly the reason the print book, app and audiobook of these rules have been so successful.

This audio book forms the backbone of the No Bull Bar Prep Big-Box alternative program, proven to show you can pass the exam without spending your life's savings. See nobullbarprep.com for more information.

Perfection!

An absolute must-read for anyone taking a bar examination in the United States. It doesn't get better than this, all of the big-box bar review programs boiled down into concise rule statements, ready for memorization. I am convinced I could have skipped law school and settled down with this book and passed the bar exam. Very well put together.

Good bar review

Fairly comprehensive bar review material. Good narrator. Could be all you need to get you over that last hurdle.

Good Material not so great narration

I like the contents of this book and I have the hard copy as well. However, the narration is hard to follow because there are not enough pauses and the author who is the narrator moves on too fast from one issue to another. This is problematic because sometimes when listening it’s hard to follow along. It would have been much more helpful if the narrator paused for a little longer after each rule and before moving on to the next rule.

If you don’t like flash cards, this is for you.

I actually like handmade flash cards, my trouble is I don’t really have the time to sit down and review them. However, I can listen to this while cleaning, running errands or laying in the bed resting my eyes from an exhaustive day.

One of the reviews said something about the rules being incorrect and you will fail because of it. That’s silly, if you look at many of the sample answers on the California bar website, you’ll see how often many examinees write the rule incorrectly and still passed. Besides these rules in this book were pretty accurate (but the abortion rule wasn’t updated)

Excellent Bar Prep

Passing the bar became achievable thanks to No Bull Bar Prep and Ed. Their standout essay formula was a game-changer, making essay writing across all subjects manageable and improving my analysis and memorization skills significantly. Their approach to breaking down complex legal issues and enhancing recall of rule statements under exam conditions was unparalleled. Highly recommend for anyone serious about conquering the bar exam with confidence.

Perfect for foreing students and attorneys

This book is the best tool you must have study for the California Bar exam, it makes the process of memorizing so much easier. I also have the paper book and the app. I need to say that they are helping me tremendously to feel prepared for this extremely difficult test! He cuts all the unnecessary junk that you don't need and keep the rules simple and easy to remember. I can't thank Ed enough. It is important for foreign law students like me to be able to learn the rules in a more manageable way. Thank you, Ed, for this amazing book!
