Anyone who got sworn in knows how long it takes until you appear in the “attorney search” section of the Calbar website?

Not sure if this is the right place to post but... I’m a 3l in CA and I am currently registered to take community property in the spring... but now I’m wavering because I want to take a more flexible Schedule. Is it necessary to take a community property class for bar prep? Will I have to learn too much during bar prep time?

For some, it's a pretty simple subject. For me, I wish I'd taken it in law school because it was my worst subject. Just didn't make the most sense to me. But I still managed, so it's not necessary. What kind of flexibility are you looking for?

thanks for your response. Ive been in school for four years, so I am simply exhausted at this point and wanted to have only one final. I have four classes but only two finals. I know it sounds like laziness but its not.

Your bar review course will teach you everything you need to know about community property for an essay on the bar.

I agree, I took community property and it was a waste of time, IMHO.

To those of us who passed and are still subscribed to this thread: do we have to resubmit fingerprints again for the new requirement that all attorneys submit by April 2019, or were our 2018 fingerprints sufficient?

The status of your fingerprinting requirements is on your state bar profile. I did it again.

I called the state bar and they said I didn't have to do it again. I was fingerprinted last year during 3L.
