Pass the Bar! provides a comprehensive overview of the pre-bar review, bar review, and bar exam process. The authors demystify the bar exam process and take readers through the steps they need to follow to succeed. Readers are given specific information about what to do during the year before their bar exams; checklists, exercises, and reflection questions; tips for studying and completing practice questions; and sample exam questions and answers to maximize their likelihood of bar exam success. The book has been designed with several uses in mind: As the text for a for-credit law school bar preparation course; As a supplemental text for an upper-level doctrinal course, allowing professors to build students' bar study skills in the context of learning a bar-tested subject; As a text for non-credit bar preparation workshops; or For students' independent study. The authors' recommendations are grounded in educational and psychological research as well as their personal experiences in designing programs and preparing thousands of students to pass their bar exams. Readers will find the text user-friendly and its recommendations straightforward and practical. "Once in awhile the perfect book comes along at the perfect time. Pass the Bar! is just such a book, arriving at the ideal time to help law students clear the last hurdle of the race they began when they started law school. The authors' approach is both logical and powerful, and would immediately enhance any bar taker's likelihood of success. I will happily recommend the book to generations of students as they prepare to cross the finish line of their challenging bar exam race." -- Professor Ruth Ann McKinney, Director of the Writing and Learning Resources Center, The University of North Carolina School of Law

BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Bulger family was not particularly Irish, as they were poor immigrants who worked for the government. Their father, James, was a third-generation laborer who was injured in a railyard accident, and his arm was amputated. They then moved to Dorchester and later to South Boston, where they heard about a new public housing project called Old Colony Harbor. #2 James Michael Curley was the most vexatious Irishman of all, according to Bostonians. He was the quintessential Irish politician, and he went to jail briefly for taking a civil service examination for a constituent. #3 The Bulgers were a family of small-timers, and that was what they were, even in their heyday. They were not a family of entrepreneurs, and they were not interested in rising above their station. #4 Whitey was more his father’s son than Billy. Whitey was rarely at home, even as a boy, and would often keep to himself. The projects were not what they have since become. There were no drugs or unwed mothers, and next to no welfare.
