Sample workflow · no live call

Barstudyprep in action.

Pick the module for your state, paste a draft, submit. The grader returns a calibrated 1–6 score plus a four-criterion breakdown in minutes — branching off where the bar examiners actually score.

What follows is the writeup, plus a side-by-side: a real-shaped California practice essay on the left and what the grader returns on the right, rendered from a static fixture so it loads instantly and never breaks.

The flow

Four steps from purchase to a graded draft.

No 72-hour queue, no TAs triaging your submission. You write, the grader reads, the rubric writes back.

  1. 01

    Buy the module for your state.

    One-time $499, or whatever your state's module lists at. Access runs from today through the next California bar exam (capped at three months per purchase).

  2. 02

    Pick a topic, write a draft.

    The eleven canonical CA bar essay topics are loaded in a dropdown — Professional Responsibility, Community Property, Civil Procedure and the rest. Paste your draft.

  3. 03

    The grader returns a calibrated 1–6 score.

    Inside three minutes, the grader returns an overall, four sub-scores (issue-spotting, knowledge of law, analysis, conclusion), and a reasoning summary cross-referenced to your draft.

  4. 04

    Re-calibrate before the real thing.

    Submit again any time your window is open. Iterate on the same topic until the criterion flags line up with the bar examiners' median.

Demo

Sample essay, scored.

A California Professional Responsibility essay on the left — and what the grader returns on the right. Same rubric the calibrated CA bar examiners use, written as the model answer.

Rubric

The four criteria the grader always returns.

Same scale, same weights, same expectations as the State Bar examiners. Each criterion is returned on its own 1–6 line — and the overall is calibrated against recent CA scoring distributions.

Criterion 01

Issue-Spotting

Did you identify every legal issue the facts plant — and the CA-specific overlay where the subject demands it?

Criterion 02

Knowledge of Law

Did you state the controlling rule accurately, including any CA-specific variation (CA Rules of Professional Conduct for PR, Community Property for CA)?

Criterion 03

Application / Analysis

Did you apply the stated rule to the specific facts, reaching per-issue conclusions under IRAC?

Criterion 04

Conclusion / Clarity

A clean per-issue conclusion, signposted prose, structure a tired grader can follow without re-reading.
