You will need to take an intensive, eight-week course, costing a drillion dollars, to prepare for the bar exam. Wait a minute, you say. Why did I borrow ten drillion dollars (exceeding the national debt of some third-world countries) and spend three years of my life going to law school? Didn't law school teach me the law? No, you idiot. Law school's purpose is not to teach you the law.
Law school taught you to THINK LIKE A LAWYER, unless you attended one of the elite schools, and then it taught you to think like a medieval philosopher, or a business school dropout. So you have to take the bar preparation course.
