jurisprudence exams- how to study

[jdkadk]

Hi all,

I live in a state where I have to take a t/f jurisprudence exam, open book (not sure if I can bring my own materials as I think they provide them). I am assuming this should not be all too difficult but was hoping to get some feedback about how to study. I have read the laws and regulations through two times and am trying to create a visual outline in my head re: headings, titles, overall concepts. I REALLY do not want to overthink this, so please share any info re: your experiences with jurisprudence exams.

Thank you!

These exams are straight memorization - and it sounds like you can even use some sort of open book materials. In my state, the exam was so easy that I doubt I would have even opened any materials if I were allowed to use them. Most of the questions were about ethics, and the remainder were details about state-specific laws - for example, how long to keep records, number of hours of direct supervision needed if you supervise others, amount of time for license renewal, fines for certain things, how to petition the state to start a business, who to contact in case of suspected child abuse… I read through the booklet once and got almost a perfect score on the exam. Study tip - read whatever manual they gave you.
