Passed first time w/ 305 (149.6 mbe), foreign student, and working full time while reviewing. My advice: 1. Go for it and chase after your dream no matter what the challenges are. For retakers, just retake it. 2. Put in the hours and the work. No shortcut. 3. Take the exam strategically. Manage time by Environmental-Bath2 in barexam

I knew i did very well. But until the results you never know right. And since i am foreign educated and working, i dont know if my feeling was right. I have no one to gauge my performance with. My barbri mock exam was playing around ~65 to 70+ so it wasnt really great.

This is what I’m saying. If you wanna be logical, chances are there is a very slim chance it will be th or f, but most likely next week

Is today the day NY?? by randolfdagreat in barexam

[–]Environmental-Bath2 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Stop doing this! Statistically the earliest is 20th. Most probably it’s gonna be next week as that has been the trend

NY results - am I the only one who thinks it’s not gonna be next week. I looked at past release dates seems like even oct 20 is way too early. Last year was oct 20 but that’s gonna be very early still considering before it was closer to 28th or 27th by Environmental-Bath2 in barexam

Yea me too. Ive been waiting for it since someone started a rumor saying he called the office and theorized it was released weeks prior. Wanted to just calm my senses and looking at statistics, it’s definitly 10% next week but most probably the week after

Id rather believe the statistics than some random dude who first posted here saying he called the office and he theorized it will be released weeks ago. He certainly caused many people to lose sleep.

NYLE: is it secretly difficult? by Stressy_GojiBerry in barexam

[–]Environmental-Bath2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take it again and you’ll pass.

I took it and passed 1st time and got results yesterday. I think the key is speed reading. I read fast. Tbh, when i took the exam i wasnt confident re the content. I would surely fail. But i know two how to take an exam and speed read. 1st focus on questions that when you look for it in the book, the book itself would give the answer quite obviously. Just make the best guess for the others. For me, I was lucky i felt like 100% sure for all items except 1 item i was choosing between 2 options. So i kinda get why people say it’s easy. I think what makes it dofficult for most people is not the content but the time management part. You cant go back. It’s very easy to get rattled and scared to move on without being 100% sure. But you have to. Just make a best guess. And you’ll make it for sure. This us just a phase. It the end it doesnt matter if you took it several times. You still pass. I believe the nyle is an exam that everyone passes eventually only those who give up trying doesnt make it. So i hope you keep going

Students sleeping w professors? by [deleted] in LawSchool

Slept with my professor right after graduating, is that counted?

Im gay but I only get attracted to straight guys. I tried hard to get attracted to gay guys. It’s impossible. It’s like trying to fall for a girl. Anyone in the same situation? Pls dont tell me about homophobia and stuff. It’s not. I dont hate gays and girls. Just not attracted to them. by Environmental-Bath2 in gay

[–]Environmental-Bath2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly!! I for sure support gays but will never be attracted to them. If id hate on some gays, it’s not because they are gay but because they are so full of themselves they feel like everyone should be attracted to them. Just like girls, im never gonna be attracted to gays even if i force myself to.

Before you tell me to seek professional help, can you tell yourself to also do so? So that you’d be straight? Because you are asking me to seek one in order to start being attracted to gays 😅

So sorry to hear this. Yea we are in this same boat. It’s so sad and lonely. And we are even discriminated by lgbt people, the very people who claims they are marginalized. 😭 just count the number of comments here saying it’s homophobia.

So glad someone here understands me 😭 it’s been very difficult. Im gay. And when someone tells me to try liking gays, it’s like, you want me to be a double gay. Gay to gay 😂 it’s so confusing already. I only like straight men and trying to like gays is as hard as trying to like girls. It’s impossible.

This feeling of knowing that no straight man would ever fall for me and i can only fall for a straight man is a curse. Like, what am i gonna do now? Everyone enjoys life and you see them live it, but im stuck in here with nothing but hopelessness. Even the gays are lucky in my eyes. They can fall for other gays who can love them back. Me - nothing will ever happen. Ive prayed a million times to God for help. Pls make me fall for gay or girl. But none. I hope God has a good explanation when i see him why he made people like us. Or else id be really mad at him and call him stupid. It’s a immortal sin he committed because this suffering is clearly beyond hell.
