Frequently Asked Questions

Can Klarrity generate flashcards from Barbri or Themis materials?
Yes. If your bar prep materials are accessible online through your browser, you can highlight text and generate flashcards from them. Klarrity works with any web-based content.
Is spaced repetition effective for bar exam preparation?
Yes. The bar exam requires memorizing hundreds of legal rules and distinctions. Spaced repetition is the most efficient method for long-term retention of this volume of factual content, which is why many successful bar takers use Anki.
Should I make my own flashcards or use pre-made decks?
Research shows that creating your own flashcards improves learning because the act of formulating questions engages deeper processing. Klarrity helps by generating high-quality cards from your study materials, giving you the best of both approaches.
How many flashcards should I study per day for the bar exam?
Most successful bar takers review 50-150 cards per day with spaced repetition. Start building your deck early (8-10 weeks before the exam) so the intervals have time to work. Consistency matters more than volume.
