Haven't started studying for bar yet; how fucked?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: June 13th, 2012 6:52 AM Top 10%, have biglaw lined up. Only took two bar courses in law school.
Assuming I find the will to start studying next week, how much (if at all) is my life about to suck for the next month and a half? |

The final 3 weeks I just focused on the most common subjects in my state, taking practice Qs/essays and memorizing bite sized barbri law statements. I spent more time each day as the pressure mounted. Eventually I covered everything, with much more time emphasis on the commonly tested material.
I don't think you would have to be moronic to fail. I think it would be easy for a smart to fail if you don't put in at least 100 hours that last month or you can't focus on test day. |

By the time I took the test I could visualize a fairly complete outline of bar law for each topic and write it down without referring to anything. All I did was do as many questions as I could, referring to the outlines when I recognized gaps in my knowledge. |

also, property has been tested several times in a row now, i think 3 times, so it's less likely to be an essay but you never know with these clowns |

i was very freaked out and thought it would be worth it to give up a summer and do nothing but study if it meant only having to do it once and being done with it forever. when all said is done, it was worth it (even though i was convinced i had failed until results came out so even all that studying didn't give me much comfort)
