SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It turns an overwhelming “what should I study and when?” problem into a realistic, adaptive long-term study plan aligned to bar prep or exam prep goals.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-based plan construction: Builds learning, drilling, and review phases and allocates weekly hours by subject weakness rather than guesswork.
  • Daily schedule generation with adaptation: Creates an initial two-week day-by-day schedule, then updates priorities and the upcoming schedule using session_history.
  • Mode-aware planning: Supports build, update, status, and cram workflows (including a high-yield cram mode with explicit tradeoffs and pacing expectations).
  • Prep-course integration: When a structured prep course is present (Barbri/Themis/Kaplan or similar), it supports either supplementing or replacing that calendar to avoid running two full curricula.
  • Sustainability guardrails: Enforces a life-context sanity check so the plan fits the student’s actual constraints and flags declining adherence risk when life details aren’t provided.

Use it when you need to start bar prep from scratch, adjust your plan after missed or completed sessions, or get a clear “what’s next today/this week” view.

Quick Start

Run the command /law-student:study-plan with the flag --build to generate a study plan for your bar exam.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a bar exam study plan from scratch?

To build a bar exam study plan, use the build mode to construct phase-based learning, drilling, and review schedules that allocate weekly hours by subject weakness, generating an initial two-week day-by-day schedule.

How does adaptive study scheduling work after missed sessions?

Adaptive study scheduling works by updating priorities and the upcoming daily schedule using session history tracking, allowing the plan to shift dynamically when you miss or complete study sessions.

Can I integrate a bar prep study plan with Barbri or Themis courses?

Yes, you can integrate a bar prep study plan with structured prep courses like Barbri, Themis, or Kaplan by either supplementing or replacing that calendar to avoid running two full curricula simultaneously.

What is the best way to cram for the bar exam with limited time?

The best way to cram for the bar exam is using the dedicated cram mode, which provides a high-yield study schedule with explicit tradeoffs and specific pacing expectations for condensed preparation.

How do I check if my bar exam study schedule fits my actual life constraints?

The study plan enforces a life-context sanity check to ensure the schedule fits your actual constraints, and it will flag declining adherence risk when you do not provide sufficient personal life details.
