Mastering Contracts and Sales for the MBE with Celebration Bar Review

This comprehensive episode discusses Celebration Bar Review's methodology for mastering contracts and sales for the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE). It begins with foundational concepts such as offer, acceptance, and consideration, and navigates through key legal principles like promissory estoppel, statute of frauds, and unconscionability.

It examines anticipatory repudiation, third-party beneficiaries, assignments, and delegations, leading to a detailed exploration of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Article 2, which governs the sales of goods.

The episode further delves into the distinction between goods and services, contract formation under the UCC, and buyer remedies for defective goods. Additionally, it explains constructive notice, exceptions to the statute of frauds, and the parole evidence rule, providing real-world examples and strategic insights for future lawyers to tackle MBE questions effectively.
