	Bar examination - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bar examinations in the United States are administered by government agencies of individual states, except for the patent bar, which is separately administered by the Office of Enrollment and Discipline of the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
		Passing the bar exam is typically the most arduous part of the process of gaining admission to the bar.
		Bar review tends to be one of the the more stressful and unpleasant process which a law student faces before becoming a lawyer, and may be a contributing factor to the unusually high rate of drug and alcohol abuse among lawyers.

		The Bar course is taught to a recipe I have never met before in the liberated environment of 30 years of teaching medieval Latin texts.
		We may not leave the room without sending up a piece of paper explaining why and waiting for a written reply (much to the embarrassment of one young woman and the merry laughter of the young men seated in her "mess").
		While winds of change at the Bar Council and the Law Society are stopped by draught-excluders of complacency and students' fear of professional disadvantage if they say what they think, all this will presumably go on.

		THE Bar tradition dating from medieval times whereby student barristers have to "eat dinners" at their Inn of Court to qualify at the Bar is to be scrapped.
		Students on the one-year Bar vocational course will no longer have to eat 18 formal dinners in the hall of their Inn during term times, wearing their gowns and complying with various customs and rituals as they have done since the 13th century.
		The traditional idea of the dinners is that students absorb the ethos of the Bar and mingle with their contemporaries and with the benchers of the Inns the QCs and judges who are its governors.

		At the Bar Conference last year, Jack Straw confessed that he had chiefly made it from council estate to the Bar through the help of a local education authority grant to fund his year at Bar School.
		The course, she believes, has made the Bar more accessible to those from less privileged backgrounds, "and that can only be good news for the depth and diversity of the legal system".
		Sean believes the course is ideal because without it, he would have had to take at least a year out from the Navy and to put his career on hold.
