SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the problem of inefficient bar prep by generating targeted MBE/essay practice questions for a student’s specific bar jurisdiction and exam format, with feedback that tracks misses and adapts over time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Jurisdiction- and exam-aware practice: Applies gates to confirm exam type (NextGen vs traditional UBE vs state-specific) and to handle rule divergences explicitly (e.g., UBE/majority vs state-specific Evidence, PR, Civ Pro, Criminal, etc.).
  • Weak-subject weighting + session tracking: Uses a practice profile plus an optional study plan to weight questions toward weak subjects/subtopics and records results for pattern detection.
  • Real-situation safety stop: Detects when the prompt sounds like a real legal situation and redirects toward non-advice study help rather than legal advice.

Quick Start

Run bar-prep-questions to generate a focused practice session for the bar using your loaded jurisdiction, exam type, and weak subjects, by asking: “/bar-prep-questions --session 10 --mbe”.

Frequently Asked Questions about bar-prep-questions

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate MBE practice questions tailored to my bar jurisdiction?▼

MBE practice questions are generated by running a session that applies jurisdiction and exam-type gates to match your specific bar exam format and local rule divergences. Use command flags like --mbe to specify the question style and set the number of questions.

Can I weight bar prep questions toward my weakest subjects?▼

Bar prep questions can be weighted toward weak subjects by loading a local practice profile and optional study plan. The system uses this data to prioritize your weak subjects and subtopics, then records session results back to study-plan.yaml for pattern detection.

Does this bar prep tool support NextGen bar exam format questions?▼

The bar prep tool supports NextGen bar exam format questions alongside traditional UBE and state-specific formats. It applies explicit exam-type gates during question generation to ensure the output matches your selected format and jurisdiction rules.

How do I track missed bar exam questions over multiple study sessions?▼

Missed bar exam questions are tracked by writing session history back to a study-plan.yaml file. The system records results and misses after each practice session, allowing you to detect weak subject patterns over time.

What happens if I ask a bar prep question that sounds like a real legal situation?▼

If a prompt sounds like a real legal situation, the system triggers a safety stop and redirects you toward non-advice study help rather than legal advice. This prevents the tool from acting as a legal advisor.
