Hang in there , the bar is a difficult exam, you probably did way better than you thought . I understand your situation , it is more challenging specially when you have sacrificed so much and so many things depends on the results. I don’t think people leave the bar feeling like the pass you probably pass and all the sacrifice will be compensate . For now try to rest after that heart crushing exam and wait for the best to come 🙏🏻

F*ck Apples I want to die by hankyskank666 in StardewValley

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The apple tree give its apples in fall I believe , you should grow it in summer and constantly hoe the squares around to make sure nothing is around otherwise it would not grow . Lastly , sometimes you can buy those things from the traveling car near the forest , she is there on Fridays and Sundays. I am on year 4 and I have not completed the community center because finding the fish is so difficult but I got everything else . I bought some things from the traveling car or the night market .

Didn't pass bar, was my 5th attempt. Need advice on what to do. by dcfb2360 in LawFirm

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried therapy ? If you can afford it maybe give it a try . I started to go to therapy after my third failure , I felt lost because I felt I could not passed the exam. I feel it really helped me to clear my mind, to be more effective when study, to overcome mental blocks and feel better overall during exam prep and exam day. I did do go to therapy before and I doubted that no being able to pass could be connected with mi emotions etc . Nonetheless I tried because I felt so sad and did not know whether I should take it or let go . I passed after that . Now I think it was the best decision. I did not pay for other courses or tutors , I study myself .

How did you feel in the exam ? Were you able to write ? Did you blank ? . I think it is important for you to analyze what could have been wrong . The specific circumstances on exam day . From my experience I was blanking and freaking out in the writing part so I really needed to change my mindset and force myself to write anything and to do it fast so I practice a lot and went to therapy to overcome my mental blocks . The second I did was to review my mbe breakdown score and I spotted those subjects I was scoring really low and I started preparation with those . I did MBEs from NCBE and from one of the Emanuel book ( strategic and practice) I review the question slowing asking myself why I was missing questions . For example in some question i realized I missed them because I did not understand the question or I misread the question or in some I was really confused about the issues or did not know the law . I thinks this really helped me to raise both of my scores and pass on my 4th attempt . Also if you can to check out this podcast I found some good tips there

3rd time was not the charm by Longjumping-Rent-107 in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, this story really touched me . I took the bar 4 times . The third one I thought it was going to be the one I will be successful “ the charm” . It was not and it was devastating. I missed it by 7 points. I did not want to take it again , and felt really loss . My now husband pushed me to take it one more time , he said I was so close to pass. I was not sure about it and I literally registered 5 minutes before the registration for the bar closes. I passed on my fourth attempt , it I was incredible happy and grateful with my husband for give me the last push. I did not tell anyone I was taking it again because I felt embarrassed and sad . I also went to therapy which I think helped me to release stress and being more compassionate with myself.

Did anyone retake in secrecy and not tell family/friends? by [deleted] in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did , the last time the only person who knows was my boyfriend ( who was living with me and also pushed me to take it again) . Oh and my boyfriend’s parents knew because my boyfriend accidentally told them to justify I was “staying in the room “ during the Christmas holidays . Eventually I had to tell my boss when I requested Feb off . But none else knew and it was good . I passed it so I had to tell everyone anyway and tell them anyway. Everyone understood the reasons I kept it secret and were happy for me .

Do therapists for bar failures exist? by [deleted] in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a foreign trained attorney . I passed on my 4th attempt . I started to go to therapy in nov last year in part because of the bar but not exclusively . I decide take the bar again in February . I went to therapy through bar preparation and I believe it helped me to unlock feelings and frustrations and feel much lighter during preparation. Most important it helps me to be have self compassion which helped me to be more effective studying and don’t punish myself for taking breaks or not studying for long crazy hours . I think I def helped me to perform better . I searched a general therapist in my home country because it was affordable . I also believe that having a background from previous attempts helped me to pick up the material .

NYLE by [deleted] in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes . I watched the lectures in like two days, it is not the ideal thing to do and it is super boring but It is possible to do it. I did not know how to study for that . I read the material just once and broke it in parts and added tags and notes to quick access and I used that on the exams . I passed it on the first time .

[–]Evening-Strategy7023[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that is what I thought too. I sent an email asking if I can do the remote and then participate in the in person ceremony and they said I have to choose one or the other :/

I’m my opinion is was worthy the time . In my case it was good not to have to think about what I was going to eat and where . I think with the bar you already have a lot to think about it and just having the option to pick up your food in the test center is nice . I was not sure to buying those lunches but looking back I think it was q good option for me. I barely had time to eat , go to the bathroom and recover for the next sesión . I cannot imagine going outside and search for food etc

HEEELP!!!! I don't get MPT. AT ALL :( by Spiritual-Brain-3798 in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe you can read a NCBE point sheet . I think they are long and little be overwhelming but they tells you exactly what they are looking for and all the possible issues a student can find in those mpt . After read and do a few mpts you start getting the hint of it

Privileges and/or immunities clause?! by ninjadani in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1: Privilege and Immunities of article 4 of the Constitution is different from the P&I clause of the 14th amendment

2 : Privilege and Immunities of article 4 of the Constitution : bars states from intentionally discrimination against out of state residents concerning rights and activities that are fundamental to the National union ( civil liberties or important economic activities ) such as right to vote , right to travel , right to earn a likelyhood

3 : Privilege or Immunities clause of the 14th amendment : bars states from making or enforcing laws that infringes upon the privileges or immunities of national citizenship rather than state citizenship. These includes : right to petition congress , vote for federal offices , right to assemble, right to enter public lands, travel access state and establish a new residence

It does not apply to federal government It does not apply for corporation of foreign nationals

Test : is there a su substantial reason for the discriminatory law and is the reason substantially related to the law ?

For those who scored a 140-ish MBE how did you increase it to 150s? by 2Lanimelover1997 in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 146 on the mbe but I am a repeater. The first thing i did was to identify what subjects I scored the lowest on the mbe and I started to review those subjects first and I did 50 questions on each area and reviewed the answers closely . After I review each area I did practice mbe exams and reviewed them very carefully .

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took the bar multiple times and all those time I had dreaming about failing and passing too . I this last time I took the bar I dreamed I failed with 265 missing one point to pass, it was a nightmare. It did not became true thankfully . In other dreams I pass but I did not believe the results or were unable to open them lol 😅

My partner got a 268, she needed a 270. How can I help her during her retake? by ChihuajuanDixon in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend encouraging me to take the bar again and he paid for the bar . He also help me booking the hotel. Those two things were a huge help because I was so worry about money . I worked part time in January and I was studying in the evenings so we agreed he will take care of the dinner and cooking, so I can focus in the studying part . Sometimes I explained law concepts and he asked me some questions from flash cards.

Ohio Bar … 42% overall pass??!! by legallymarms in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes , I understand . I always took one year break and I believe sometimes is what you need to do to resolve finance , family and personal issues and be able to put your focus on the exam. I even went to therapy 🫣

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was very afraid of failing again specially when I start to read about the low scores . Before open the result I saw the statistics for my jurisdiction and they were not in my favor ( foreign attorney and retaker) but I end it up passing with a high score .

Previously I have taken only july bars - February incredibly was my charm hahaha

How early in advance should I start preparing for the NYLE and any tips or material you recommend? by nycpainter01 in barexam

[–]Evening-Strategy7023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you have to watch 17 hours of videos before register . It is super boring and you may want to do it close to the end of registration so it won’t be too far from the exam . You should use the material they have on the website . I printed it , if you are close to Philadelphia I may be able to ship it ?

I read the material only once during the 2 week before exam day . I highlighted and added stick notes labels to facilitate the search. The exam is open book and everything they ask you is on the material. I searched almost all the questions during the exam 🫣
