Task 8. Part Two - Bar Review Courses and State Bar Examinations
In the United States, admission to the bar is governed by state law. (The American Bar Association is a voluntary professional organization and ABA membership alone does not qualify a person to practice law in an American jurisdiction). There is no "United States" bar exam as such, consequently international students interested in admission to a bar in the United States must determine the rules for the particular state. If you are interested in sitting for a bar exam, you should find out the applicable rules and register early. The registrar at your law school will have information to help this process. The New York bar traditionally is the bar of choice for international LL.M. graduates. Bar exams are typically given twice a year, and the results are not generally available for several months. In addition, a written legal ethics exam may be required.
As incredible as it may seem, even completion of a three year J.D. degree does not fully prepare law graduates to pass a state bar examination, so the overwhelming majority of law students elect to take some sort of bar review course. These bar review courses are not taught like standard law school classes and are designed to provide a great deal of information about different legal topics in a relatively short period of time. You will have an opportunity to register for such courses through representatives at your law school.
Part Three - Preparing for Graduate Study
Graduate legal study in the U.S. is a major step in your professional career. Although it is rewarding, it is by no means easy, and you will be confronted with large quantities of unfamiliar legal material, possibly in a language with which you are not entirely comfortable. To ease the transition, the International Law Institute offers two programs, the Introduction to Legal English course and the Orientation to the U.S. Legal System program. Both courses are taught in the summer and are designed to familiarize the student with legal terms and concepts found in LL.M. classes. (What is "consideration" and why do you need it in a contract? How does the common law function without a Code?).
Even if you are not able to participate in these programs, you can help assure your success as an LL.M. student by reading about American law in English, and by arriving early enough to get comfortable with living in the United States.
