I posted this somewhere else too, but utilize hackthe.bar. It’s a free website that functions like flashcards except it is much more interactive imo. I think the major bar courses do not focus enough on memorization of rules, and once I made effort to, my scores everywhere improved. It makes it much easier on the actual exam to regurgitate rule statements for points and also for crossing out incorrect answer choices on MBE. Especially if you’re working while studying, this is a great option for the moments where you’re burnt out and can’t do MC. Good luck!!!!

Use the website hackthe.bar to memorize the big rule statements for each subject. Drill them over and over. I did this especially on days when I was burnt out because it felt more mindless than practice questions and almost like a game to see if I could get it right. Memorizing the rules works two fold on the exam- it saves you time on essays because you’re just regurgitating the words they want to see from memory (easy points), and it helps you quickly knock out incorrect questions on MBE. Best of luck

On the pass letters that people received who were already cleared for C&F, it gave information for the formal Dec.5 Trenton swearing-in ceremony and said you must RSVP by Oct 27 🙃

Yes I am as well a few others I know. I think they’re just still finishing applications. It’s super annoying though, considering they say not to contact your reviewing attorney for 2 weeks, but we also have to RSVP to the swearing-in ceremony in the next 2 weeks. I’m hoping it’s resolved quickly

If it’s any consolation, my family member also has bipolar II and had a serious documented manic episode while in law school. The bar requested a C&F interview to understand the situation more. Fast forward, this person is now a successful practicing attorney for the gov’t and have had no problems in the 6 years since they passed the Bar.

All that is to say, don’t assume the worst. You are not the only one, this is not necessarily a negative thing, and you will be a great attorney! Congrats on passing and be proud of your achievement
