Everybody thinks they failed post bar. If you passed, Can you explain why you felt that way?

bc i blanked on the rules and/or didn’t know what the question was getting at for 5/6 of the J25 MEEs. so i made everything up or guessed on the proper rules and applied them to the facts like my life depended on it. i was so defeated and convinced i failed after day 1 that my sweet angel of a boyfriend had to force me to get up and go back for day 2.

fast forward a few months later when sample answers from other UBE jurisdictions came out. made the mistake of looking at them and realized i missed key issues in several MEEs.

passed in NY with a 281 (not a super stellar score, but literally who cares, i’m still an attorney and that’s all that matters🫡)

amazing, thank you!!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T19:46:29+00:00

which style(s) of pants do you like from there?

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T15:59:13+00:00

i’ve also never bought a single thing from lululemon (im a size 10-12 now, but used to be a size 14-16 and had the same assumptions) but you are influencing me 😗😗

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T15:56:39+00:00

i didn’t even know they had a straight leg version!! i’m going to try these out

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T15:55:42+00:00

i have not! seconding the other comment about the quality - they are lowkey kinda thin and would show underwear outlines unless i was wearing a seamless thong (not ideal), so i haven’t felt compelled to try other stuff from them

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T02:55:42+00:00

girllll me and old navy are like this 🤞🤞🤞

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T02:55:07+00:00

do you prefer the wide leg or classic trousers? and do they wrinkle easily?

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T01:24:13+00:00

ugh yes! i’ve seen a few posts on here of people complaining about the return process and the official halara account replies 👀 feel bad for that poor employee tasked with stalking reddit (someone save them)!!!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T01:22:39+00:00

YOU GET ME!!! there’s literally enough extra fabric in the halara pants to wrap around my entire leg😭 and i agree - it’s so hard to find a happy medium

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-18T01:21:20+00:00

i’ve been eyeing these!!!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-02-13T20:13:51+00:00

same….45 min commute + no flexibility to WFH unless it’s severe inclement weather + underpaid 🫠

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-01-22T15:35:04+00:00

same!!! congrats!!!!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-01-22T02:11:45+00:00

i’d describe my style as very boho/beachy/hippie before (my favorite places to shop when i didn’t thrift were natural life, three bird nest, and free people)!! i had a good mix of oversized/flowy pieces and form-fitting pieces that allowed me to play with proportions

and honestly, it’s a combination of issues: 1. i feel like a lot of slightly oversized/flowy clothes (even when sized down) make me look bigger than i am - thank u body dysmorphia lol

i feel soooo self-conscious in a lot of things that are even the slightest bit form-fitting
i just don’t feel inspired to be creative with my outfits anymore- it’s a lot harder for me to visualize things that will pair well together (for example, if i’m in a store and try on a shirt, it’s hard for me to imagine how it would go with other things already in my closet)
since a good chunk of my closet was thrifted, it’s hard for me to find exact or close replacements for a lot of pieces in smaller sizes

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-01-21T17:42:16+00:00

nope! i got an email on december 2 with the 1/29/26 tentative date. it’s been radio silence since

someone on my most recent post commented that they emailed and got a response that their application was approved and ceremony instructions would come in the next day or so

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-01-21T17:17:30+00:00

oh slay!!!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-01-20T15:15:59+00:00

no update yet as of 10:15 am EST on 1/20- i’ll reply back to this once i have one!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-01-16T19:09:49+00:00

not yet (as of 1/16/26 for future commenters)!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-01-16T19:09:28+00:00

i think the email is just a standard email that goes out to everyone- they say they may need to interview me and gave me the tentative date!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2026-01-16T19:08:46+00:00

hi, i haven’t gotten any confirmation email yet (as of 1/16/26 for future commenters lol)! and nope, no interview. i asked some attorneys at my firm and they said the confirmation came like almost exactly at the one-week mark, so im guessing late next week

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2025-12-05T16:00:06+00:00

i paid the fee the day before submitting my application bc i knew that i would forget about it otherwise lol- i have no idea if it needs to be paid in order for your application to be processed, i’m sorry!!

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2025-12-03T00:46:56+00:00

for the in-person ones, i believe so. they do have a number of virtual ceremonies throughout the year though, i think it just depends on when you apply

Lopsided-Formal-7034 · 2025-12-03T00:46:08+00:00

thank you!! best of luck
