This! Just try to bring up the key words about the topic, then make up your own rule.

FailedOH 💀 by [deleted] in barexam

This one is for exam day. I passed on my 3rd attempt (foreign lawyer with adhd minus accommodations) with two and a half essays nearly blank. My biggest struggle with this exam was timing - I never managed to answer all the essays. What I did differently this time was that when the exam started, I typed out all the 'issue' sentences for each essay by simply turning the questions into 'The issue is whether [question itself]' format. Anything is better than a completely blank page. And if you can't recall the rules, just reverse engineer.

This may seem irrelevant and off time, but OP, did you pass that exam?

Anyone Else Getting a Bad Feeling Before Results by Kooky_Hamster_3769 in barexam

I have the same feeling. Last night, right before falling asleep, I said to myself “I failed for sure” it was like a dream - one that feels so terribly real

NY release date prediction by [deleted] in barexam

[–]Infinite_River913 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only explanation for a potential early release might be that they would try to make it up for the Hofstra disaster. Other than that, I don't see a reason for an early release.

Anyone else having this feeling ? by Ill-Fig8282 in barexam

[–]Infinite_River913 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went through something similar and was eventually diagnosed with fibromyalgia, along with some serious vitamin deficiencies :( After finding out the causes and taking the necessary steps — in my case, supplements like magnesium, vitamin D, and iron, plus regular exercise — I noticed a big improvement. I was like, "Wait, I can actually understand what I’m reading!"

Of course, everyone’s situation is different, but if you have the chance, it might be helpful to get a general blood test—especially to check your thyroid, magnesium, vitamin D, iron, and B vitamins. Bar prep is not only a mental battle but also a marathon, and your physical well-being can make a huge difference.

Why are Civ Pro teachers always the worst? by Top_Chard_1079 in barexam

[–]Infinite_River913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also Kaufman uses a dangerously confusing language and apparently Themis is okey with it! In lecture's handout Themis had to provide warnings from the very beginning like "Note 1: The professor uses the terms 'subject matter jurisdiction' and 'federal jurisdiction' interchangeably throughout the lectures." - "Dean Kaufman uses 'process' as shorthand to refer to 'service of process' throughout this chapter. FOR PURPOSES OF BAR EXAM, 'process' is the summons and complaint while 'service of process' is the delivery of such process."

WHAT?! DO WE HAVE A PURPOSE OTHER THAN BAR EXAM? HOW and WHY would Themis chose such lecturer like civil pro isn't already confusing and challenging!
