Bar Course Accuracy & Source Ledger

See what every course module covers, and where the boundary is.

The bar course accuracy and source ledger connects every current-scope subject to the course modules that cover it. A transparent audit layer connecting every current-scope subject and all 213 core modules to the official blueprint, governing authority family, tested-status label, and known scope boundary. 213 core modules across 9 subjects are logged this way, each checked against a named primary source rather than asserted from memory. Every module passes five checks: scope, rule, boundary, application, and maintenance: is the topic on the official outline, does the proposition match the controlling authority, are exceptions stated rather than implied away, does the example use legally decisive facts, and is a date-sensitive field linked to its live source. This documents editorial alignment, not NCBE endorsement, access to live exam content, or attorney certification: the responsible jurisdiction still controls admission requirements.

Where states differ, a question states the majority or uniform-act rule and says so, or names the statute it applies as an example. The Restatements of Torts and Property are not free to read online, so a point that rests only on a Restatement section is taught as the generally accepted rule and was not matched to a fetched page, and the same is true of the common-law parts of the other subjects. Report an error through the contact form and it goes through the corrections process.
