Johnnie Lugh Hester

Beschreibung

Are you a foreign-educated lawyer or LL.M. student facing the U.S. bar exam? You are not alone.

Each year, thousands of talented international attorneys attempt the New York or California bar exam, only to face pass rates significantly lower than their U.S.-trained peers. The reasons are clear: you're not just learning new laws, you're battling a different legal system, a unique testing style, and a language barrier—all on a compressed timeline. This guide is the first of its kind written specifically for you.

Forget generic bar prep advice. This book provides a targeted, practical, and empathetic roadmap to conquer the specific challenges you face. It translates the confusing aspects of the common law and demystifies the bar exam's structure, giving you the tools to bridge the gap between your legal education and a passing score.

Inside, you will discover:

A Crash Course in Common Law: Finally understand core principles like stare decisis and the adversarial system from a civil law perspective, preventing critical mistakes on exam day.

Targeted MBE Strategies: Learn why the Multistate Bar Examination is the biggest hurdle for foreign takers and master a step-by-step method to deconstruct tricky questions, manage your time, and improve your reading comprehension of legal English.

The IRAC Formula for Essays: Move beyond theoretical writing and learn the rigid IRAC (Issue, Rule, Application, Conclusion) structure that bar graders are trained to look for on the MEE and MPT.

Customized Study Schedules: Implement a realistic 6 or 9-month study plan designed for the demanding life of an LL.M. student, integrating commercial bar prep courses effectively.

Real Advice from Successful Foreign Attorneys: Gain invaluable insights and learn to avoid common mistakes from international lawyers who have successfully passed the U.S. bar exam.

The Parting of the Sea - How...

Barbara J. Sivertsen

“[Sivertsen] has done an exceptional job of digging into the wide variety of fields relevant to understanding the Exodus. A superb and stunning book.” ―Paul and Elizabeth Barber, authors of When They Severed Earth from Sky 
 
For more than four decades, biblical experts have tried to place the story of Exodus into historical context—without success. What could explain the Nile turning to blood, insects swarming the land, and the sky falling to darkness? Integrating biblical accounts with substantive archaeological evidence, The Parting of the Sea looks at how natural phenomena shaped the stories of Exodus, the Sojourn in the Wilderness, and the Israelite conquest of Canaan. Barbara Sivertsen demonstrates that the Exodus was in fact two separate exoduses both triggered by volcanic eruptions—and provides scientific explanations for the ten plagues and the parting of the Red Sea. Over time, Israelite oral tradition combined these events into the Exodus narrative known today. 
 
Skillfully unifying textual and archaeological records with details of ancient geological events, Sivertsen shows how the first exodus followed a 1628 B.C.E Minoan eruption that produced all but one of the first nine plagues. The second exodus followed an eruption of a volcano off the Aegean island of Yali almost two centuries later, creating the tenth plague of darkness and a series of tsunamis that “parted the sea” and drowned the pursuing Egyptian army. Sivertsen’s brilliant account explains inconsistencies in the biblical story, fits chronologically with the conquest of Jericho, and confirms that the Israelites were in Canaan before the end of the sixteenth century B.C.E. 
 
In examining oral traditions and how these practices absorb and process geological details through storytelling, The Parting of the Sea reveals how powerful historical narratives are transformed into myth.
