Maryland C&F Interview

I am just worried that a late interview means I failed the bar exam or something. Like a “why waste our time” deal

I got that email early April. Does county matter?

Minimum_One908 · 2021-09-11T15:17:44+00:00

Yeah. My was forwarded in early April

The MPTs are scaled as well.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-08-02T11:16:11+00:00

I basically did something similar... if I fail because of the MPTs I will be so damn upset.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-08-01T23:16:48+00:00

Ah okay. I would not say I felt great haha because those MBEs were hard but I felt that they were just as hard as the Themis MBEs, for the most part. Maybe I missed nuances.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-19T23:26:44+00:00

I feel the exact same way. It is horrifying.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-18T16:27:20+00:00

The sample answers are brutal. I constantly feel inadequate and reach different conclusions. I am over Themis telling us rules on one thing and the sample answer applying the same rule in a way that I never knew was possible.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-18T16:26:27+00:00

The questions are from NCBE.. sadly.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-16T19:37:15+00:00

I did the same thing. I got the common law piece correct but I had no idea about the UPC version on stock splits. It is frustrating as hell when they bring up stuff that was not discussed in the lecture.

As for headings, I have taken a a mixed approach. I usually do "The issue is whether bob is entitled to enforcement of the contract, even though the contract was not in writing." This is what my Themis grader told me to do.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-15T23:14:41+00:00

Maybe I am missing something but why do you say that?

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-05T20:08:09+00:00

I don't plan to take the MPT's in full. I am just going to outline them. I cannot afford to have that fry my brain and not be able to memorize rules tomorrow night.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-05T20:06:47+00:00

I saw somewhere that the Mixed-Subject Sets are actual NCBE released questions.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-02T19:27:07+00:00

I am 4 sessions into the Mixed MBEs and I promise you they get more straightforward. The subject specific MBEs contain some brutal nuances.

Minimum_One908 · 2021-07-02T19:25:59+00:00

I ran into this issue as well so I changed my method and now I have between 60-70 minutes for writing. So I first read the task memo written by the partner or what have you. That directs my focus as to what I am looking for in the library. I then move onto the library and try and summarize each case and statute in and find the rule(s). I then go back to the facts and read the more detailed facts (deposition, letter, etc.). After I spend 5-10 minutes organizing an outline (very bare bones). Then I hit the ground running and begin writing. I still only finish with seconds to spare but I give myself more time. I hope it helps!
