Preparing for a Bar Exam
While you will most likely take a bar prep course after graduation, preparing for the bar exam remains an important factor in selecting courses for every student. However, its importance varies from student to student. While no particular characteristic can determine a student's success on a bar exam, experience suggests that a student with a cumulative rank in the bottom 35% of the class, and/or an LSAT score of 154 or lower, is at greater risk of failing a bar exam than are other students.
Consequently, students with one or more of these characteristics are advised to seriously consider enrolling in electives covering subject matters that will be tested on the bar exams they intend to take after graduation.

Fingerprinting
If you are asked to provide fingerprints as a requirement for a bar examination, please check with your local police department for information regarding where fingerprints can be processed. The law school does not handle fingerprinting processing.
