An on-line course, known as the New York Law Course (NYLC), and an on-line, open book exam on New York specific law, known as the New York Law Exam (NYLE). The bar exam doesn't have textbooks.After you graduate from law school you take a review course. A convenient one volume edition containing all of the current New York Civil Practice Law and Rules and related statutes. A fifth state, New York, allows students to enter into a law office study program after completing one year of law school. They always have a wall-to-wall showing of law books and I was wondering if you actually use them or if they are just for show to the clients. All of our public access law libraries are now open. Each county must have a library with legal information that everyone can use. Trying to figure out if law school is right for you? Curious about the expectations and the day-to-day?
