The bar doesnt expect you to know much about NF. Insurance law in general is too hyper technical for them to expect much. All they want you to know is the very basics you would need to know should a car accident case walk through your door. The barbri NF outline is only a couple pages long if I remember right. Nobody is going to put a Mallela question on the bar.
CC and ST only require route memorization of a few black letter rules too. Its laziness to go into the bar and to just discount that shit. You have no one to blame but yourself if you fucked up.

Both of my States only have reciprocity with States that share it with them.
So State A has reciprocity with Iowa or North Dakota, but the 5 states surrounding State A can eat shit b/c they won't reciprocate with them. |

Date: June 30th, 2012 8:10 PM Author: domesticated hall keepsake machete State Bars are low level rackets designed to cut down on competition. They don't give a shit whether you'll be a "productive member" of the bar or not. Long as they get DAT CHEDDA every year and DAT CLE DOLLA DOLLA BILLS YA'LL they're happy.
My first state Bar relied heavily on state law. For my 2nd state Bar I didn't even study the state-specific stuff b/c the exam was designed to moreso favor the MBE more than anything else. |
