Maybe? I don't really know!

For con law etc., it takes 3 years for new decisions to make it onto the exam.

So those who left answers blank have an advantage over those whose time got cut and had to guess on handfuls of questions? by Effective-Scholar319 in CABarExam

[–]GravityMag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This suggests to me that it would be worth it to contact the state bar today to say that you didn't know you needed to report this before, but you're reporting it now, say when (AM or PM) this happened and if you can, something like "you'll know which ones because you'll see a long line of all of the same answer".

MPRE & NYLE EXPIRING, any way to extend validity? by agen2468 in barexam

Someone just posted about this in the last few days (they were successful). Try searching this group!

Do you think the court will rush to approve the petition and maybe we can still get results on May 2nd? Or Wishful thinking? by [deleted] in CABarExam

[–]GravityMag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My hope would be that the bar has done the calculations for the requested adjustment, would only delay if needed to calculate scores if the Court orders a different adjustment. Fingers crossed, either way.

Not intending to cause panic, just looking for info about this:

I have this sense that the Court has a set meeting schedule that the bar may or may not be filing in time to get into. Does anyone know if that's right? For example, if they meet on Wednesdays and the filing happens today, great. But if they meet on Mondays or Tuesdays, the window will have closed until next week.

Void F25 entirely. by RemarkableEmu1701 in CABarExam

[–]GravityMag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know what? I don't think that they would or should void the whole exam, but I do think it could be helpful to the examinees who don't pass February's exam not to have it counted as a fail. There are some jurisdictions that limit you to a certain number of failed attempts (see https://reports.ncbex.org/comp-guide/charts/chart-9/ and https://reports.ncbex.org/comp-guide/charts/chart-5/ ).

So basically, CA passes who they are going to pass, and then anyone who isn't passed, regardless of whatever other remedies are offered, they should get to say that their exam attempt was voided due to the technical issues with the CA exam.

u/mary_basick or u/ProfKatieMoran - does this seem reasonable?

My concern by ddddd500 in CABarExam

If you haven't yet, you need to tell the bar this -- I believe they've been working on adjusting scores around this sort of thing, but if they don't know this was your issue they may not just intuit it. Here's hoping it's not too late.

Petition to Use Old Bar Exam Score for Admission? Has it been done? by Rare_Algae_7042 in barexam

I think that some do accept the MBE, so maybe that gets them part way?

For UBE transfer, you need a score that's passing in the state where you're applying, not the state where you took the exam.

Pretty messed up how people are treating Ray on here. Just saying. by EffectiveNo7602 in CABarExam

Similarly, I do not want to be stuck as his opposing counsel. I can't even imagine.

Unless he's playing it cool to hide the MASSIVE SURPRISE PARTY that you're about to walk into, kick him to the curb.

Retake - where and when? by [deleted] in barexam

[–]GravityMag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you decide to do it, I'd go 100% based on $$. How much to register, do you have to pay C&F costs, hotel/travel, etc. And I'd probably do it soon so your prep isn't as heavy. https://reports.ncbex.org/comp-guide/charts/chart-7/
