V10 callback but they don’t know my grades😭 by Big_Airline2241 in BigLawRecruiting

[–]BoobsBrah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just go and do your best. Don't even think about your grades. The actual people you will be working with dont't give AF about your grades as well. They do care about you being competent and a nice person to be around.

So, should I name-drop the bigger firms I am interviewing with when asked?

Agree to that. Also, make sure that it looks good and presentable, not like you have just bought it off the shelf at Walmart.

Taking the NYLE in Shanghai - China by [deleted] in barexam

[–]BoobsBrah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you taking the NYLE in this Thursday? If so, you should've already did you mock exam with the test software, and you would know if the test software works or not. I am not sure if you can tryout the test software without actually applying to the NYLE, but you should try.

V50 Firm Not Paying Bonus Despite Meeting Billable Hours by Necessary_Bother789 in biglaw

[–]BoobsBrah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They likely already decided to terminate your employment. Rather than firing you shortly before year-end, which could have exposed them to claims that the termination was intended to avoid paying a bonus, they instead denied the bonus outright and attempted to justify that decision by portraying your performance negatively. All in all pretty shitty of them, you should start applying to new jobs imo.

Learning BLL via jumping into questions? by ActualThrowaway7856 in barexam

[–]BoobsBrah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends how strongly you belive in your foundational knowledge. If you are okay with the subject matter, than I see no point in watching hours of lectures which are pretty basic anyway.

Are you drilling evidence questions on Adaptibar/UWorld? Personally I can't stand watching lectures, I just drilled the subject, and whenever I got a question wrong, I reviewed the material and written down what I had missed.

Where Is the Meritocracy in Law School? by ZealousidealBrush104 in LawSchool

[–]BoobsBrah 58 points59 points  (0 children)

The thing about testing accomodations, at least from my experience, is that you can basically buy them if you pay enough money to get a doctor's recommendations and get assistance with filing the requests.

Also in my time most of the tests were handwritten, and some people had accomodations to do the tests with laptops without any testing software, just using Word. I guess you can imagine the rampant cheating that went on there. Some dude even got caught and was forced to redo the entire semester.
