How this site works

This is a small study site for lawyers trained outside Canada who are preparing for the Canadian law exams. It is new, it is independent, and it is free to use for now. It is not connected to the National Committee on Accreditation or to any law society.

Lessons

Each lesson covers one small topic in plain English. Open Practice and look for a topic that has a Read the lesson link. Topics marked Coming soon are still being written and checked. We open a topic only when it is ready.

Practice

Practice means trying a question yourself before you look at the answer. Right now the practice on this site is typed answers. Multiple-choice questions will be added later.

How a typed-answer question works

1. Open a topic from the Practice page and press Written answers.
2. Read the facts and the question.
3. Type your answer in the box. Pasting is switched off, as in the real exam. A timer and a word count run while you type.
4. Your draft saves by itself, so you can leave and come back.
5. Press Submit. You will see a model answer and a checklist.

How to mark yourself

Compare your answer with the model answer. For each line of the checklist, choose how many marks your answer earned. Be honest: the marks are for you, not for anyone else. The total shows at the bottom. You can try the same question again later.

Where to find things

• Practice: lessons and written answers.
• Revision cards: short cards to review what you learned.
