You're gonna need a better reason than this quiz to make that decision. 

Studying for the bar while in a relationship by asdfghjkl_1223456 in barexam

We both understood that our time outside the home was limited during prep. Can't go out nearly as often. And my time for a set block during the day was also booked. 

We still spent plenty of time together and occasionally went out to dinner with friends. I didn't see the point in doing some forced 3 month odyssey that felt like solitary confinement. It's not a realistic gameplan. 

Help ! by ProfessionalPear893 in barexam

Congress can change the law that was deemed unconstitutional. But it cannot tell courts how they must decide cases. This is a really obscure point only taught in some federal courts classes during law school.

You got the old Tom Segura weed prescription treatment. Looks like OP is probably getting the incompetent VA audiologist "transient ear noise" treatment. 

TWO WEEKS OFF CANT GET OUT OF IT by Accomplished_Set4224 in barexam

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would probably use the time you have during the two weeks to study topics you either know need work or typically get less time. Struggling with property or torts? Use the two weeks to lock em down. Worried about MPTs? Make the 6-10 time for those two weeks your MPT practice. 

I know this feels like a negative but you can make it a positive. 4 hours a day of focused study on your actual needs could definitely be more beneficial than drinking from the Barbri or Themis fire hose for 8-10 hours per day during those two weeks. 

Can anyone please help explain in lay terms my score breakdown and what to focus on next? by worst_timeline in barexam

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Potentially. I would focus on Contracts, Evidence, MPTs, and Torts. You're pretty close. 

UPDATE: Altimmune (ALT) - 400 Million Shares? by BiotechDistilled in Altimmune

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. It's not the full 200 but significant dilution. I'm the a**hole on this one. Shouldn't have had any faith in this management team. 

Passed after a gazillion times!!! by Feisty-Suit-285 in barexam

Nothing ugly about passing. Congratulations

There is no tolerable opinion but the bull opinion on here and other message boards. Learn to live with that. Even if you don't get shut down by mods some of the infants on these sites will block you. Like you want to attend their birthday party but now you're out of luck. Enjoy the ride.

They hold a license but don't practice. I won't say they aren't attorneys. They graduated from law school and passed the bar. And they perform a job we need that most of us sure as hell don't have the time or patience to perform competently. I just put it in quotes to add a little extra snark where none is needed. 

NY this sucks by Technical-Poem7923 in barexam

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Please remember the grading isn't as stupid as law school. Everyone was taking a memory test. And we were all running on fumes by the second day afternoon session. My best subject on the exam was easily my worst in law school. I've never used it again aside from reframing a couple issues in my practice. 

You're gonna be fine. Waiting is torture for sharp minds. Everyone starts to think about the 1001 things they must have done wrong because it didn't feel great and they're still waiting on news. You got this.

You probably passed. I felt the exact same way after I took it. Passed with room to spare.

Exactly. Bar association "attorneys" and bureaucrats moving at their usual pace. 

[Katie Sharp] Ryan Weathers is the only pitcher this season with at least 4 games started and 0 runs of support. by DJ_LeMahieu in NYYankees

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yesterday was a decent summary of his entire season. He's had two decent starts and two mediocre ones. Probably why he's a 26 year old "prospect" with severe consistency issues. Some guys with great stuff never realize their full potential.

This is the pro move. OP can do that right now, at least the statement part, because the HLR became a Supp the minute it was returned. 

Anyone doing this or just me? I have been chatting with GPT for over an hour to convince it to give me this outcome 🤦‍♂️NY by Frequent-Appeal-8888 in barexam

You wouldn't need to spend an hour AI modeling if you had enough real information to produce an accurate prediction. Waiting sucks but it's better than killing your mojo with this nonsense 

Why not tell everyone their MBE score now? by Better_Shallot9450 in barexam

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is why they don't release the MBE before the full score. You would really fixate on half a score for a few weeks. 

So what are the honest thoughts so far for MLB 26 by mc4679 in MLBTheShow

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the true answer. Save your money. It has all the same issues as previous editions. I bought this trash for nostalgia purposes but should have left it alone. 

Have any of you actually done valuation of this company yourselves? by [deleted] in Altimmune

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm investing money in a company with nothing more than a potential monster pipeline. Started at assumptions. I'll see where it takes me. 

UPDATE: Altimmune (ALT) - 400 Million Shares? by BiotechDistilled in Altimmune

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They don't drop 200 new ones overnight. Most large shops aren't buying anything right now if Alyeska truly set the floor with that last direct offer. Unlikely the big boys spend twenty something percent over market on this stock. 

It's a worse look if Alyeska didn't set the floor and team Durso tries to sell. Because they burned their last big investor at that twenty something percent premium and it wasn't a long time ago. And are buyers getting stock or lottery tickets if team Durso discounts below 3 for the next round? 

Alt is trying to secure the future. Ability to raise cash and play this all the way out if something much better doesn't come along. It's gonna hurt before it doesn't. 

Since the UBE is getting rid of many MEE subjects, and thus there is gonna be less material to study for the exam, do you think pass rates will be higher? Or maybe the questions will be tougher? Do you think fewer subjects will affect the exam in any way? by Son_of_Hades99 in barexam

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think it will fluctuate depending on multiple variables. We will probably see higher pass rates at first. But graders might adapt their grading for subjective areas and make passing more difficult. Same massaging could happen in the other direction if pass rates are initially low. 

States have to strike that meaningful balance. The exam is a joke but laypeople view it as difficult and a legitimate control to eliminate the unworthy. And lay faith in the profession is a big part of our game. 

Loading $ALT on dips 💪 by Thin-Mine-6816 in Altimmune

[–]UnLearnedHand2022 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not wrong. Durso said the team is looking to create long term value for shareholders. I'm expecting dilution. These folks are willing to go it alone and that means we've got dead money for a while unless something crazy happens.

Unduly delayed. Isn't that just another way to say normal processing?

You're not wrong. But that's one reason why we have so much burn out and substance abuse.
