In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Use cool water and mild laundry detergent that’s free of bleach and added dyes to wash your suit if it isn’t already clean. Fill the sink with cool water and apply the soap directly to your suit. Massage the material in the water to create suds and clean away any grime. Drain the sink, then use fresh water to rinse the suit until no more suds are visible. Squeeze the suit by hand until the suit is just damp instead of drenched. If you iron a dirty suit, you are essentially baking in any residual salt, sand, sweat, sunscreen, or lotions you may have come into contact with the last time it was worn. If you don’t have a cotton cloth specifically for ironing, you could also use a handkerchief or some other kind of scrap fabric, just as long as it is clean and made of cotton. Never put the iron directly onto the damp bathing suit, as that will damage the material. To avoid damaging the swimsuit, avoid using high heat. It’ll take a little longer to iron and dry the suit, but in the end, your suit will be in better condition. You don’t need to fill the steamer basket in the iron for this process. Because the suit is already wet, you won’t need to add moisture to it. Because you’re using a low-heat setting, be prepared to iron your suit for upwards of 10 minutes. Work systematically from the top to the bottom of the suit, using long, even strokes. Press down with force so that the heat of the iron penetrates through the protective cloth and hits the swimsuit. Even though the iron isn’t exuding a ton of heat, still be careful to not catch your fingers or grab the bottom of the iron with your bare hands. It’ll still be hot enough to burn you! Make sure to work both sides of the suit so you don’t end up with one side that shrunk and one side that is still the original size. Try flipping the suit over after going from top to bottom completely. You may also want to wipe off the ironing board with a clean, dry towel when you flip the suit over. If there is excess moisture on the board, you don’t want it getting absorbed back up into the side you were just working on. It may take 10 minutes or more, so settle in at the ironing board. Continue using adequate pressure and alternating sides so that the suit dries as quickly as possible. Once the majority of the water is gone and the suit is almost completely dry to the touch, you can stop. If you dread the idea of ironing for that long, watch a show or listen to some music while you work—it’ll help the time pass more quickly. Avoid putting your suit into the sun as the heat could mutate the colors and weaken the elastic. Leave it on the ironing board, or hang it up on a clothesline to let it finish drying. Once it is completely dry to the touch, go ahead and try it on. If it isn’t as small as you’d like, go ahead and repeat the ironing method another 1 to 2 times. If it isn’t shrunken enough after those efforts, it may be time to take it in by hand or invest in a new suit. You could pop the suit into the dryer on high heat for about 20 minutes to finish drying it. This could help the material to shrink even more, but letting it air dry will be gentler on the material.
Summary: Wash your suit, rinse it out, and thoroughly wring out the excess water. Cover the suit with a cotton cloth once it’s on the ironing board. Turn the iron on to a low- or medium-heat setting. Iron the suit, pressing down with slow, firm movements. Flip the suit over from time to time to evenly iron both sides. Continue ironing until almost all of the water has evaporated. Let the suit air dry the rest of the way before wearing it again.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: In addition to your four years of law office study, you should consider taking a Bar prep course to learn how to succeed at the Bar exam itself.  Bar prep courses typically offer a combination of in-person and online instruction over several weeks, and cost a few thousand dollars.  Bar prep courses boast far higher passage rates than the state averages. For example, Themis states that 75 percent of first-time test takers who completed their program passed the California bar. In July of 2014, four candidates took the California Bar for the first time after completing the four year study program. None of them passed. Of the 23 exam takers who were on their second or third attempt to pass the bar, only one passed. Once you've completed your four years of study, you can apply to take the California Bar exam by filling out the application and paying the $645 fee to take the California Bar as a general applicant.  The exam is administered in July and February of each year. If you file your application in April for the July exam, or in November for the February exam, you'll pay an additional $50 late filing fee. Anytime later, up until the final filing deadline, you can only apply if you pay an additional $250.  If you want to use a laptop for the exam, you'll pay an additional fee of $146. You should decide if you want to use a laptop when you initially file your application, because if you change your mind and decide later that you want to use one, you'll have to pay an additional $15 late laptop fee. The California General Bar Examination consists of a written section that includes six essay questions and two performance tests along with the 200 multiple-choice questions for the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE).  For example, the July 2014 examination included essays on contracts and remedies, evidence, business associations and professional responsibility, criminal law and procedure, trusts and community property, and torts. The two performance tests were writing an objective memorandum and writing a persuasive brief.  You will receive an admissions ticket that includes the dates and times of your exam and the location of your assigned testing center. You also will receive a bulletin that describes the schedule for testing each day and provides a list of items prohibited at the testing center.  Carefully review the rules regarding items such as mobile phones that are prohibited in the testing center, and make sure you don't bring anything with you that isn't allowed.  The California Bar exam takes three days. Each of those days begins at 8:30 a.m. and consists of two three-hour testing sessions broken up by a lunch break. To pass the exam, you must have a total scaled score of 1440 points out of a possible 2000 points. Your result letter will include your raw scores on each of the eight parts of the exam, your total raw and scaled written score, your MBE scaled score, and your total scaled score.
Summary:
Study for the Bar exam. Understand that you probably won't pass. Apply to take the Bar exam. Take the Bar exam. Pass the Bar exam.
