  Bar prep questions — MBE or essay, targeted at your weak subjects and bar

# /bar-prep-questions

1. Load `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/law-student/CLAUDE.md` → bar jurisdiction, exam format (NextGen / traditional UBE / state-specific), weak subjects, prep course.
2. Also load `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/law-student/study-plan.yaml` if it exists — it tells you what subject is scheduled for today and what subtopics are still weak.
3. Apply the framework below.
4. **Exam-type gate (do not skip).** If exam format or jurisdiction isn't in the practice profile, ask before generating anything. The NextGen Bar Exam and the traditional UBE test materially different subjects — studying the wrong list is the one mistake that isn't recoverable. Point the student at the NCBE's jurisdiction page (<https://www.ncbex.org/>) to confirm their exam format and subject scope.
5. **Jurisdiction-rule gate.** If the student's jurisdiction has a state-specific component (CA, LA, NY Law Exam, FL state essay, VA, etc.) AND the subject is one where majority-vs-state rules diverge (Evidence, PR, Civ Pro, Criminal), ask whether this session is UBE/majority-rule, state-specific, or mixed. Do not silently default.
6. Generate questions **scoped to subjects tested on the student's exam**, weighted toward weak subjects. Label each question by rule body (`[UBE/majority]` or `[CA-specific]` / `[NY-specific]` / etc.) when running mixed.
7. When rules diverge between UBE/majority and the student's jurisdiction, explain the split explicitly in the answer — see `## Jurisdiction handling` below.
8. After each answer: explain why right/wrong. Track patterns in misses.
9. `--session <n>` runs a focused N-question session and writes results to `study-plan.yaml` under `session_history`.

## Real-matter check

If the question the student is asking sounds like it's about a REAL situation — their lease, their parking ticket, their family's business, their friend's arrest, a real dollar amount, a real deadline, a real party name — stop.

> "This sounds like a real situation, not a hypothetical. I can't give you legal advice, and you can't give it either — you're not a lawyer yet. If this is real, [the person] needs an actual lawyer: legal aid, your school's clinic, a lawyer referral service (your jurisdiction's bar association, law society, or legal aid body), or (if there's money) a private attorney. I'm happy to help you understand the general legal concepts involved, but that's study, not advice."

Watch for: real names, real addresses, real dates, specific dollar amounts, "my landlord/boss/parent/friend," "I got a ticket/letter/notice," deadlines measured in days. Any one of these is a trigger.

## Purpose

The bar exam tests a defined body of subjects. This skill drills you on them — weighted toward your weak spots.

## Exam type — ask first, do not assume

**The bar exam is in transition.** As of the July 2026 administration, the NextGen Bar Exam (developed by the NCBE) has launched in some jurisdictions, while others continue to administer the traditional Uniform Bar Exam (UBE). State-specific exams (California, Louisiana, Puerto Rico, etc.) are their own thing. The subject scope is materially different between the NextGen and the traditional UBE — **subjects no longer independently tested on the NextGen include Trusts & Estates, Family Law, Conflict of Laws, and Secured Transactions** (some underlying concepts may appear inside integrated "foundational concepts and skills" questions, but they are not standalone tested subjects the way they were on MEE).

Do not assume the subject list. Before generating any questions:
