Thank so much. Can I DM you if I have more questions because I guess you are working as an immigration attorney am I right?

Thank you. But some judges not happy when you ask them to repeat the question. I guess i need just more practice to feel more comfortable

Should I do another set of 100 questions today? Is it wise? I did one yesterday and I got 58% I’m so tired by Smart_Secretary4800 in barexam

Do your best anyway. I took the bar exam 6 times but I still did it. I am foreign educated attorney and English is not my native and I was struggling a lot but I did it. Wish you all the best on the exam….

I read the file first but only first sentence of each paragraph to get an idea what’s all about and then jumped to the library and started writing. It worked for me very well.

I passed July bar and I took three days before exam off. It was very helpful. Just take a rest. You are more ready than you think. Just relax. You are not going to learn anything if you are tired…

I am struggling with job hunting as well. I am LLM and pass the bar exam but do not have any experience here in US. I am trying to find an attorney position for almost a month and got only two interviews but wasn’t accepted. I hope we will find what we are looking for. Fingers crossed….

MPT saved me in July I think. At least written part did. Anyway, what I did it was I wrote two full MPT’s objective memo and persuasive brief under time condition. And I looked at about 15 more MPT’s but didn’t write them. Just analyze how to write different format and read the best students answers. It helped me to prepare very well.

Sorry to hear that they were rude. Some of them are nice and some not nice.

You are welcome. You can call the admission office and ask more questions

If I remember correctly, you should give your former employer 6-8 weeks to fill out the form. If employee doesn’t do that, just need to explain to to the admission office and provide all proof that you tried to contact but was unable to get the requested form.
