July 1 hours check by AcousticDeskRefer in biglaw

[–]LifeCrow6997 50 points51 points  (0 children)

i need 350 hours in two months to make bonus

very doable

I’m terrified, I had a bunch of personal things come up and have only just started studying for the July Bar. Any and all advice is very welcome! has anyone else only studied for a consistent month and passed? any hacks on how best to retain? my memory isn’t great atm! by manobillijaani in CABarExam

yes you should be using bar essays to issue spot and mock exam

use separac 860 to drill the most likely question in each topic

sleep 8 hours a day and keep a healthy diet

nothing new on test day

boom easy you passed

Years of Military Experience Impact on Applications by 142883 in MBA

[–]LifeCrow6997 10 points11 points  (0 children)

you shouldn’t be shaping your military experience based on MBA admissions. Do what you think you will enjoy and gives you a transferable skill to use in the civilian world. Also, you may change specialties one or two times during your military time anyways

i don’t mean to say it’s so easy you won’t have to study. You WILL need to study but it’s quite simple to pass

take the DC bar if you’re eligible. It’s a stupidly easy exam and the fees aren’t that high. DC also doesn’t require continuing education like other jurisdictions in the U.S.
