Indiana Bar Exam Outlines

Indiana Bar Exam Outlines

If you’re here and you’re prepping for the Indiana bar exam, this is the page you want. These Capsule Outlines have been helping bar exam takers pass the bar exam for the last five years.

What are Capsule Outlines?

A professor teaching a bar exam prep course once noted that while not every single question about criminal law is covered in what he teaches, if you learned what he taught, you’d be able to get about 30 of 33 questions right.

That’s the philosophy behind my Capsule Outlines. They do not cover every single point that could ever conceivably be covered on the essay topics. They aren’t supposed to. They cover the points that are most often tested, and I’ve tried to note the ways in which they are most often tested.

Focus your studying on what matters

If you head into the bar exam with a good handle on what’s in the Capsule Outlines, you’ll have the stuff you need to get most of the available points. Not all of them. But this isn’t about setting new score records on the bar exam–this is about studying smart so you can pass.

The Capsule Outlines narrow the universe of possible study material to the most heavily tested items. You can focus your studying, and study smarter, not harder.

What you get

There are nine Capsule Outlines included: Agency, Business Organizations, Commercial Law & Secured Transactions, Indiana Constitutional Law, Family Law, Pleading & Practice, Taxation and Wills & Probate.

Each outline is between four and seven pages long, and contains the main points, tests, factors, elements and details about those topics, along with notes about mnemonics I found useful and ways I noted the topics were tested in prior years.

I passed the July 2009 exam, and just thought you might like to know that your outlines were way more helpful for studying for essays than the commercial bar prep I overpaid for.

Plus! Tips and Advice from people who passed!

One thing that helps reduce stress and boost study endurance is getting a quick fix of tips and advice from successful bar exam takers.

So I culled the best tips and advice from others, and also compiled 25 of my own Top Tips & Suggestions into one e-book. It’s 5,000 words of advice from people who have been where you are–and succeeded in passing the bar exam. No one knows better than those that have gone before!

And a couple other goodies

I didn’t make a Capsule Outline for Trusts or Personal Property. So I’m giving you the 11-page Trusts outline I used, and the two-paragraph highlight of the most important points to review for Personal Property.

I’ve also included a 4-page Civil Procedure Rules & Joinder Review that I used in law school and (the joinder review specifically) in bar studying to help shortcut the Civ Pro review & memorization.

I almost passed on the outlines. I was already using a commercial prep course and I thought, “How much more can these outlines help me?” Turns out, the answer is: a lot. If we ever meet, I owe you a beer for helping me pass!

A couple of notes

First, these are outlines I prepared while studying for the July 2006 Indiana Bar Exam. I have not updated them since then, and have no plans to do so. They must still be good, because I get flooded with requests for them & thanks for them every time it’s bar exam season!

Second, these are my outlines–they are the exact material I studied from and passed with no problem. But they aren’t “official,” they carry no fancy endorsement of BarBri or anything else… they’re just mine. (Which is also why they’re, you know, actually affordable, as opposed to being outlandishly and appallingly overpriced like BarBri.)


What others are saying about the Capsule Outlines

Thank you so much for these outlines. I passed and I owe it to those outlines!
–J.B., passed the bar in 2010

I just wanted to say a huge THANKS to you. The bar results just came out. I passed, largely due to your FANTASTIC outlines. This is the first bar exam I’ve taken, so your advice was extremely helpful in preparing for the exam. Thank you!
–A.M., passed the bar in 2008

Seriously… I’m considering naming my first child after you. This is not a lie. My husband and I have discussed it. The outlines stopped my rapidly approaching panic attack. You rock!
–Jenn, passed the bar in 2006

AMAZING. These are exactly what I needed. Why didn’t Bar/Bri make these? You just saved me.
–J.T., passed the bar in 2008

Wow! These are impressive! I felt my heart rate decrease as soon as I glanced at the outlines. It’s clear you put a lot of time in preparing them (and now I don’t have to)!
–R.H., passed the bar in 2006

I was starting to feel overwhelmed. But I really like your organizational style in your outlines, and they really helped me understand everything better.
–J.M.

I’m so glad Google brought me to your website. Your outlines brought me the first piece of hope I’ve felt about the bar in weeks. I felt totally lost on the essays. Now I feel like I might actually be able to pass.
–Brian

May the Bar gods shine their light down upon your brilliant soul!
–J.B., passed the bar in 2006

Quite frankly, the most concise, humorous and catchy outlines I’ve ever seen. Your mind is on a different thought plateau than most. Who else would ever think to drop Snoop Dogg in an Agency mnemonic?! Seriously. Brilliant.
