first year law
student exam
Students who choose to attend law schools that are not accredited by the ABA or the State Bar of California, must take the First Year Law Student Exam (FYLSE - also known as the California Baby Bar Exam), to get credit for their law studies.
The First-Year Law Students' Examination is a one day examination. The morning session will be a maximum of four hours in duration, and the afternoon session will be a maximum of three hours. The 100 multiple-choice questions are administered during the afternoon session.
