i have got my enrollment number and i have also filed power in 2 petitions in allahabad high court,lucknow bench and in district court lucknow
i didnt have any problem.
i also didnt get any examination form with my registration form
not only me but hundreds of students here whom i know got registration
and many of them have filed their powers in cases
but before few days 1 of my frnd bought a enrollment form and he also got a examination form with it
so still there is some confusion regarding it
picture is yet not clear
but as i think that there are very rare chance that this exam will be held this year

Bar Exam should be mandatory. BCI is very late in introducing Bar Exam but better late than never. In almost all the Developed and developing countries Bar Exam is there and even Philippians started Bar exam way back in 1901.

Such exams would surely enhance the quality standards of advocates and it would set its own benchmark for survival in the stiff professional competition.

All India Bar Examination - Exam Methodology
The All India Bar Examination will have one hundred (100) multiple-choice questions spread across various subjects. The subjects are taken from the syllabi prescribed by the Bar Council of India for the three-year and five-year Ll.B. programmes at law schools in India (as set out under Schedule I to the Bar Council of India Rules). These subjects are divided into two categories: the first comprises subjects that may be considered &lsquofoundational&rsquo in nature, those that form the basis for large areas of law the second comprises other subjects, which a new entrant to the legal profession must also have a basic understanding of. Schedule I to this document contains the list of subjects that would be tested in the All-India Bar Examination and the weightage ascribed to each of these areas. The All India Bar Examination shall be structured with multiple-choice questions (that is, the correct answer would have to be marked out in the Optical Mark Recognition (&lsquoOMR&rsquo) format answer sheet provided, and no writing of an answer would be required.) These questions will be divided into &lsquoknowledge-based&rsquo and &lsquoreasoning&rsquo questions, and advocates will be allowed a maximum of three hours and thirty minutes (3 hours 30 minutes) to complete the All India Bar Examination. The emphasis throughout is on assessing an advocate&rsquos understanding of an area of law, rather than on the ability to memorise large texts or rules from different areas of law. The All India Bar Examination will be &lsquoopen-book&rsquo, which means that advocates may bring in any reading materials or study aids that they choose, such as the preparatory materials provided for the All India Bar Examination, textbooks and treatises, and even handwritten notes. Advocates may not bring in any electronic devices, such as laptop computers, mobile phones, or any device equipped with a radio transceiver (such as pagers) at the examination centre. The results generated after the answer scripttts are corrected will simply state whether an advocate has or has not qualified for practice (that is, whether the advocate has passed or failed the All India Bar Examination) no percentage, percentile, rankings, or absolute marks will be d.
