Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! We're coming up on the third online bar exam, and we're continuing to get questions from students and listeners about the best way to outline when using scratch paper is not possible. Join us for this episode as we share some best practices for outlining on the remote bar exam.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How important is it to outline your answer?
• Outlining on paper versus on screen
• Outlining for essay questions and the performance test
