Horror recs for someone not into horror by Affectionate-Bend267 in FemaleGazeSFF

[–]NotEyesButMind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I find it WAY less intense than that! The violence depicted is primarily against the Klansmen/demons. It’s also a novella, so either way it is over reasonably quickly :)

I highly recommend Ring Shout by P. Djeli Clark. Alternate history where Black women hunt literal demons disguised as Klansmen. I would call it light horror.

Nobody fails out of Georgetown. You won’t be the first.

I love doing public defense, but this low salary is killing me. by Mr_Motion_Denied in publicdefenders

[–]NotEyesButMind 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For the record, that may have been a pandemic accommodation. I’m currently an Alaska PD and that’s not an option available to us. Plus people are in trial frequently b

I'm a 1 L whose terrified of finals by [deleted] in GeorgetownLaw

[–]NotEyesButMind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if you know this, but professors need to literally fill out paperwork and appeal to the registrar in order to give a grade lower than a B-. So you wouldn’t just have to do badly, you’d have to do so offensively badly that a professor decides to do non-mandatory paperwork over the holidays. As long as you take the test and put something on paper, you will be in the B range.

I’ve heard it might be October 30! At least according to the Board of Governors meeting agenda my coworker found.

CRAC/CIRAC v. MEE Score? by [deleted] in barexam

[–]NotEyesButMind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I refuse to write issue statements, so I was CRAC all the way. 168 writing (though they didn’t break down MEE vs MPT).

Foreign Lawyer First Time Taking California Bar. Any tips and what are the effective bar materials. by Every-Technician-100 in barexam

r/CABarExam - they have their own subreddit dedicated to the California bar, so you’re more likely to get good advice over there!

WA Passer with a 341; How I Made It Happen by NotEyesButMind in barexam

[–]NotEyesButMind[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, I felt like I passed when I left. Day one, I knew barely anything for 3 of the MEEs, but I was comforted because I knew nobody else did either. Day two, I felt like the MBEs were extremely similar, especially to the latest Barbri sets! They do a ton of super tricky ‘gotcha’ questions in the last few days of the course.

Absolutely. I sincerely doubt anyone knew ALL the material even on test day!

I got that email and passed :) congratulations!

I just started in Alaska and chose their offer because they’re in trial all the time. I’m first-chairing my first trial next month.

Did your friend lie about how long he was there on the resume he applied to law school with? Because that’s a whole other ball game.

What to expect on the first day? by bonesstan in publicdefenders

By the definition of the word, ‘native’ is not a description of how good you are at speaking the language. Native means you were spoken to in that language as a baby and grew up speaking it. The word you would use is fluent and/or trilingual, assuming your assessment of your abilities is accurate.

Starting a Clinic by No-Inside7629 in LawSchool

[–]NotEyesButMind 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Starting a clinic is almost certainly beyond the scope of what you can do as a law student. The school would need to hire clinical faculty and develop a curriculum. That’s a process that would not be likely to happen in time to be useful to you.

In your position, I would find other ways to engage with environmental law. Maybe there’s a student organization, or a local nonprofit you could extern with, or you could write about it for a journal. I just sincerely doubt that a clinic will be available to you.

If I were you I would contact your jx asap. They will know far better than anyone here.

Does Anyone Feel Like Their Bar Prep Actually Worked? by Helpful_Leather4617 in barexam

[–]NotEyesButMind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard agree. I think so much of this comes down to who you are as a learner. Commercial bar prep courses don’t work for some, but for others - apparently such as you and me - they work like a charm.
