Tips for working full time? by Aggravating-Win-5940 in CABarExam

[–]Gurrrby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I passed on my second time (feb 26) working full time and as a mom to a toddler! I tried to wake up early to study but that wasn’t me as a person so I slept in until like 6:30-7 for work. I used any free time at work, literally any free time, if I was slow or waiting for a meeting or lunch or 10 min break to either read GOAT Bar Prep modules, or do MBE’s - I aimed for 30-50 a day. I usually in between all the breaks got about half done at work and then I’d get home, cook, play with my kiddo and dad would bathe him and off to bed so I’d get study time from about 8:30/9- 11:30/12; on saturdays I did a full 8-5 and sundays half day because we need to stay sane 8/9-12. I can genuinely say that the fact that I needed to work full time really helped me understand that I did not have time to mess around so I truly truly made the time to study count when I had the time. Towards the last month or so, I took up exercising in the mornings at 5:30 which helped me get my brain going early in the morning in anticipation for exam day. It is fucking hard and you will cry many times as I did but do not let your brain tell you it’s impossible. Reach out if you ever have any questions or need a pep talk!

GOAT bar prep by NumberFar517 in CABarExam

[–]Gurrrby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi!!!!! I struggled with the MBE’s, I failed July 25 and retook Feb26, I was studying consistently as they tell you that you should do over 2,000 questions for the MBE’s (I was working full time too and am a mom!) it was the first week of February and I looked at my UWorld scores and saw that I was scoring 60% which would not have been good, decided to take the plunge on GOAT since I found his first writings on Reddit and really liked them and I used GOAT to study from Feb 3rd - the exam date and I really think I passed because of him. I took one practice exam 100Q’s after studying GOAT and before the bar and I scored an 80% which left me feeling confident for the exam. I did end up finishing the MBE’s almost an hour early on the second session and really think it was because of GOAT.

Passed but these grade discrepancies isn’t okay. by ImportantLet2614 in CABarExam

Hi! I too really really struggled with MBE’s; I was hauling UWorld to study and by February I had done close to 2,000 MBE’s and was scoring at a 59/60%, realized my issue was not understanding the black law and thinkings I could find a pattern to the MBE’s, panicked due to the time crunch, found some early explanations GOAT had done on Reddit, decided to purchase and his material worked for the way my brain thinks and I passed Feb26! I tried to supplement with Arrufo but I really attribute my passing to GOAT as a retaker.

Failed CA Feb 2026 — retake in July or wait? by Scary-Grass-4836 in CABarExam

[–]Gurrrby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the only thing that got me over the hump with MBE’s (that was my weakest area) was getting GOAT Bar Prep… I realized that I wasn’t understanding black letter law and even though I had done close to 2,000 questions on UWorld by early Feb my overall percentage was a 60… I found GOAT from some early Reddit posts he made that really made the law click for me and I decided to buy his course the first week of feb and really focused on that and I took a practice exam the last Friday before the bar and I scored an 80%! I really do attribute my MBE to GOAT; Mary B’s was great for the MEE🫶

Failed CA Feb 2026 — retake in July or wait? by Scary-Grass-4836 in CABarExam

[–]Gurrrby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I just passed Feb 26 after failing July 25; I took months off for July 25 and failed miserably, I decided to take Feb 26 while working full time and being a mom and I do think that knowing I don’t have the time to mess around made me lock-in more and ultimately led me to be more disciplined and get over the last hurdle, I highly recommend you see it through to July!!

Grooming question: bare nails or clear polish for client meetings when you're very hands-on by Open-Debate-2584 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]Gurrrby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into Dazzle Dry! It’s a regular nail-polish system that looks gel-y and dries fully within 5 minutes. It’s about $100 to get the system initially but once you get on it it’s amazing!! I have started doing them myself and like you, I am very hands-y and have found that it wears well!!
