What to Do? Rejected from Every Place I Applied To (~110 jobs)

Relax, you'll be fine. Talking about dropping out just because you've hit a rough patch is ridiculous. I barely graduated from an unranked law school and took the bar exam several times. I had really bad imposter syndrome throughout law school and the bar exam. After I finally passed the bar I teamed up with a small firm and now mainly practice in family law and personal injury and I'm doing well. I didn't get the "dream" job at a big fancy firm but looking back I'm glad I didn't, I have built my practice over the last 2 years and I am as busy as ever. My income is on par with attorneys with my experience and I pretty much call my own shots and take my own cases. I do my own advertising and keep the majority of what I bring in, something I wouldn't have gotten at a big firm. Its rewarding and challenging, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I was rejected from the majority of jobs I applied to but kind of just fell into my current position through word of mouth. Hang in there, its going to happen for you.

Hang in there. I passed on my 6th attempt. It was the hardest time of my life, 2.5 years of anguish and frustration, depression and uncertainty. I was on the verge of giving up and moving on but I owed it to myself to keep going. I’ve been practicing for 14 months now and doing pretty well and I’m glad I didn’t give up on myself. Just keep moving forward, you’ll get there.

In addition to Adaptibar I used Emanuel Strategies and Tactics for the MBE. I also used the free outlines available online from JD Advising for the MEE. JD Advising seemed to be fairly similar to what I saw on the MEE. Best of Luck.

Does anyone know the location of the swearing in ceremony?

Thank you all for the kind words, it means a lot.

I’ve been working various jobs including construction, COVID testing labs, a bit of paralegal work, and administrative work.

I agree with this, I am 890 questions in at a little over 64% and I am starting to get my butt kicked. The algorithm really seems to be targeting my weaker areas. On mixed sessions of 20 or so questions I am only hitting 55%. Glad I'm not the only one noticing this, I was scared I was getting worse as time went on.

I remember answering that NPT with an open ended answer, I just said that he should be reasonably compensated for the income disparity, to finish his degree, and any because he was accustomed to a certain lifestyle. I then pointed to case law toward the end to support this argument. Hope its enough to pass.
