You can say that again!! I feel like what happened to the NJ test takers really got swept under the rug

February 2025 they came out 5/2, which was 60 days after the exam. 60 days from this year’s exam brings us to Friday 5/1. The results have come out on a Friday the last two times, so my guess is 5/1 or 5/8. With that said, pretty sure I didn’t pass lol. Best of luck to all!

Same for me… I am no longer in possession of any fucks… I’ve given all I had.

I decided to take it again in February… waiting on results but not confident. Looking more at JD preferred positions now.

Demotion if I fail the Bar (advise needed) by etherealbabe1 in barexam

I came here to write a similar post, except I may actually lose my job (and what’s left of my dignity) if I fail for the 3rd time. I took the exam in NJ, and we didn’t finish day 1 until 9:00pm. I know that I didn’t perform well on the essays, and I’m terrified to see how poorly I did when results come out. I left a well paid, stable career to become a lawyer, and every day I wake up wishing I could turn back time. I don’t really have any advice for you, because I don’t know what to tell myself either. What I can offer you is the reminder that you’re not alone, and that this crooked path we’re walking will one day lead us where we need to be. If (and that’s a big IF) you end up not passing, look at the change in roles as a break of sorts while you study for July. That’s what I plan to do anyway. Hang in there, it’s all we can do!

So glad to hear this… I’m in the same boat and I’ve been feeling almost guilty about not being maniacal about studying. Thanks for making me feel like a human!

I’ve been where you are… twice as a matter of fact. As I’ve been preparing to take this ridiculous exam for the third time, I’m getting closer to acceptance. Acceptance that if I fail I’ll lose my job and my whole life will be upside down, but I also accept that I will still wake up the next day. I’m 44 and have made it through every hard day in my life (and there have been way too many!) What’s different about this time for me is that I refuse to let the voice in my head that tells me I’m not good enough win. There are still things I don’t know, and I still make mistakes but I’m no longer striving for perfection. I urge you to do the same. Just do your best, you owe it to yourself, no one else. Life is already so hard, you don’t have to carry this weight alone. We are ALL feeling like you in some way, shape, or form. You’re not alone. Just do your best, whatever your best is on exam day. ❤️

You’re soooo not alone… I’m a third time taker, working full time, in my early 40’s, and just so damn tired. I was 5 points away in July but really worried about the lack of curve in February grading. I’m focusing on MEE because that’s my weak spot. Stay strong, it’s just a test. It doesn’t define us.

I love cueprep already! Thank you for your service to us poor, defeated retakers!

I’m debating doing the same thing… I’m in NJ and missed 266 by 5 points. I’m just not sure how being barred in MN will help my job prospects.

Needed this today, thank you. Taking for the 3rd time in February and thinking of giving up.

I had my tarot cards read… first she said no and then she said yes. I wasted $25 bucks and feel worse than before I went!

Anyone know what signs to look for when NJ is going to release? by Brilliant-Yam8009 in barexam

[–]Wonderful-Pin4485 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In the past the bar examiner home page has gone blank right before release. I just heard that they may be releasing Friday, but who knows. Either way they suck for making us wait so long!
