Passed bar without studying
Poast new message in this thread
Date: April 29th, 2009 8:32 PM Author: hot jet philosopher-king orchestra pit This is my second bar (the first was in a different state a few years ago), and I didn't bother studying more than about 3 hours because I don't really want to keep practicing law all that much. I probably cut it pretty close. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=988068&forum_id=2#11587714) |

Date: April 30th, 2009 12:29 AM Author: hot jet philosopher-king orchestra pit It's pretty expensive to register for a bar though. Would someone else be paying for you to take it? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=988068&forum_id=2#11590548) |

Date: April 30th, 2009 12:35 AM Author: Costumed immigrant home no, but money isn't the issue. and if i were to take it and pass, i'd probably go inactive in one of the other states where i'm already admitted. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=988068&forum_id=2#11590622) |

Date: April 30th, 2009 12:31 AM Author: ebony diverse patrolman I passed 2 bars so far without really doing it hardcore style.
First of all, I never took a bar review course. I studied for one bar abroad with a micromash set.
I studied for another one with used barbri books I bought and I worked full time up until a week and a half before the exam.
Passed each state.
Spending 2 months taking a barbri class and not working is undeniably overkill. |

Date: April 30th, 2009 1:34 AM Author: hot jet philosopher-king orchestra pit Barbri definitely seems like a waste, though the mini review book seemed useful to look over. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=988068&forum_id=2#11591447) |

Date: April 30th, 2009 1:24 AM Author: Passionate chrome giraffe shrine I did this. Mind you, it wasn't in a state with a hard exam (like NY or CA), but my state's not easy either.
Somehow I passed, but it must have been just barely, and the stress while waiting for the results wasn't worth it. I got hooked on Valium during those next few months, no joke. |

Date: April 30th, 2009 5:58 AM Author: beta deer antler There's a story about Joe Jamail doing this. He was drinking with some buddies his 2L year and he bet them he could pass the bar. They took him up on it, and he sat for the bar his 2L year.
Got his results back, he went to the bar w/said buddies, opened the results. Results said he passed by one point.
Looked at his buddies and said "well, guess I studied too hard." |

Date: April 30th, 2009 1:42 PM Author: Heady greedy antidepressant drug not sure. only took the TX bar. pass rate isn't that bad (~80% for the state), but then again TX doesn't have a shitton of unaccredited law schools like CA (which lowers the passage rate). The essay portion is a bitch (there are somewhere around 19 subjects that are tested). (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=988068&forum_id=2#11594819) |
