Exam Preparation Materials
If you need some pointers on how to prepare for Law School exams, the Reference Staff has put together a display of materials that you may find helpful. Located just outside the Reference Offices and across from the Circulation Desk, the display, brings together an array of study aids and materials on exam preparation and writing. Most of the materials on display are circulating resources. If you find materials that you would like to checkout, please feel free to take the material to the Circulation Desk for assistance.

Law School Past Exams
Many faculty members make their past exams available to students as a teaching aid. In an effort to provide students with the broadest possible access, the Law Library has obtained approval of some faculty to make the past exams available online. Instructions on how to access the online exams is available at http://www.okcu.edu/law/lawlib/library_lawstudents.php Print copies of the exams are also available for checkout at the Circulation Desk.
