Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, as part of our "Listen and Learn" series, we're looking at the conditions that have to be satisfied in order to form a valid contract. We'll review the concepts and illustrate them with two essay questions from previous bar exams.

In this episode, we discuss:

Determining the applicable law governing a contract
The conditions that have to be satisfied for a valid contract
Recognizing when there is a counter-offer
Applying the mailbox rule to determine the time at which an offer is accepted
Analyzing two hypos from previous California bar exams involving contract formation
