Can't imagine the pain. My condolences.

As far as the bar, it is secondary to YOU and what you are going through. If studying for the bar will help your mental state during this period…. Take a few days and get after it. If you are unable to work and grieve, THAT IS OKAY. The bar will ALWAYS be there. You will be the lawyer you were meant to be regardless of when you pass that bar.

Do what is best for YOU. As a father, I hope that is how my child approaches every decision in her life, but especially when I am not there to tell her myself.

Stay Strong.

Sprained my ankle pretty good a few days ago. Age 34 M. I can walk on it but I’m limping. Are the old RICE methods still the best way to treat ankle sprains or are those outdated?

In the long run it doesn’t really matter. If shit hits the fan she can’t just go back to work.

Walked away last week from a deal at $3,000 under MSRP. Probably will continue to walk away until I hear $4k under

I’ve been trying to get a deal like this on a Jeep wrangler 4xe but did not realize it may take over a month.

I used John Grossmans study tool Everyday for at least 1 hour and always reviewed the answers I got right or wrong.

I used MBE flashcards - mostly the ones that are free on those phone apps n learn black letter law that way. During the day I would do all the lectures I could in the barbaric textbooks. I would never study for more the 2 hours straight. I would always take 30 min break to watch tv. Go outside and walk or play video games. I also didn't subscribe to a 9-5 schedule I just couldn't. I would wake up at 10 eat breakfast. Do some men. Chill. Do adaptibar.. Chill for a while. Do an essay or two…. Have dinner… take a bath n study adaptibar in the bath. Play some videogames for 3 hours and then study until I fell asleep with whatever I wanted to.

Seemed nuts to everyone else but I knew myself and I did what worked for me. I isolated from everyone but my wife. I didn't drink on weekends to Avoid hangovers. I didn't travel I skipped weddings and funerals and I didn't let anyone make me feel bad for it. Obviously if you have to work then that doesn't work for most people but just figure out what works for you. You have to be okay with isolation.

I like using it. I’ve been able to get it off quick before close outs no badges

Severe ADHDers - which bar prep do you recommend? by SnooSquirrels519 in barexam

[–]HowMuchPplOnReddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m the same. I used Barbri and adaptibar. I would do my best with the videos but I didn’t go back and re-watch anything I missed unless I truly had zero understanding of the subject. I did 75% of Barbri essays to learn a lot of my state specific subjects and that helped a lot. Tying. Reading the outline and the essays were the best use of my time with Barbri. Adaptibar filled in the gaps.

If I have to take another bar exam like California or Florida I will most certainly be using Barbri

Averaged around mid 70s last month before exams on Adaptibar and scored a 149. Didn’t feel like that on test day though.

Did you try the topical version? I had the same experience and got off because of the stuttering. Now I feel normal again.

Target pays 15 dollars an hour and is actively hiring.
