Constitutional Law on the Louisiana Bar Exam
This is federal constitutional law, free speech, equal protection, the religion clauses, the limits on state economic regulation, and the structural doctrines. Most answers are a scrutiny drill: identify the government action, pick the tier of review, and apply it to the facts.
Where it sits on the exam
- Day 3 (Friday), 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM.
- Tested by multi-part essay questions, and in recent years about 10 multiple-choice questions as well.
- One of 4 non-Code subjects. The five Code subjects count double the four non-Code subjects toward your score.
