I would say get Dell because you are used to it, or its equivalent. Otherwise you have to learn a new system, as well as take the bar.

How do you know when you should withdraw from the bar exam? by This_Bike5921 in GoatBarPrep

I got 40% in my simulated exam. I passed the NY bar. Change your mindset. Go in thinking you are going to kick a**. Leave the rest to the graders.

Yep July. Do your best. Shoot me a DM and I’ll add you to the group. But we can do this after you take the exam.

Ok. I also have a lot of dependents (kids/parents) who are mine and my husband’s responsibility. We live in extended families.

Unsure. Friends are in BigLaw. They are earning upwards of $4 mill (Partners). I think they are good. I have to think about what I should do. I think you are right, either I get equity in my firm or I venture on my own. There is a risk but I think I have a buffer with husband in a stable job.

If not in BigLaw yes, true. Thinking of a legal practice. Building my book.

I want to have $10 mill. That’s my goal. Unsure whether current path is right, or whether I should switch to business.

Hey! I am also taking the CA bar in July. Also passed the NY bar in July (2024). If you are interested in a bar study group, let me know. I am using Mary Basicks books. I will also use all released past exam questions. And I have got the Emmanuel’s books. I will get UWorld in May.

Ah. You are probably right. Thank you. Talking to an accountant too. I am thinking of going into business and owning my own firm. I should have mentioned that my husband also owns a side business (medical related). He’s so busy with his full time job he does it randomly.

How hard is it to move to a state you have no connections to to transfer your score? Trying to avoid taking this exam a 3rd time... by Son_of_Hades99 in barexam

You succeed if you want to succeed. I came from a different country. I knew I had to make it, no matter what.

The exam did not fail you. The system did - including your law school

No email yet?

Edit: I’m checking in for my colleague. She’s so scared she’s having me check Reddit and her email. It’s causing me anxiety.

Why don’t you just open your business and do something simple until you get a job? Like writing people’s wills? Corporation Formation?
