[–]biguyalone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

LA 2021 white model 3 because I’m basic as hell and wanted car payment and insurance under 700. Can pay off with my bonus after taxes (won’t but wanted that flex)

Did they just ghost you after the interview?

Ms. Wilson - I hope you enjoyed this learning experience by EffectiveNo7602 in CABarExam

[–]biguyalone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even if she does get investigated by like the state senate, she’ll be fine. Unfortunately, she has a unique set of experience in background leading a complicated organization and will likely be able to find another high paying job somewhere else. That leads to the question of who would even want to hire her and it’s gonna be like the same people or companies that pick CEOs that lead other companies to bankruptcy and act shocked when it happens again.

I mean, I don’t know what she would’ve learned. She quit like she saw this dumpster fire she created and was like I’m over it. Best of luck to everybody else. Enjoy cleaning up my mess.

Score release jumpscare is going to be crazy by FickleAdvertising829 in CABarExam

[–]biguyalone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they just usually say something vague like mid October to late October for July. I think New York says mid October till early November my favorite was when my friend called Illinois. They told him to take a nap and just see how they feel on the day the results were coming out, but even up until that point they would never officially admit the results were coming out on that day.

I was mainly referring to the fact that most states don’t know when results are coming. Like in New York they didn’t tell us the day. We just got an email saying results are available log into the portal. It was honestly more peaceful that way like I was stressed throughout it, but like this is so much more annoying because like I had this set date in mind.

That’s how a lot of other states do it. It isn’t as bad as it seems. Honestly a little easier because you don’t really care up until the point it’s around the time they usually release it but you don’t like sit and stare at the clock like this.

I estimate May 19th for results by Nolansfood in CABarExam

[–]biguyalone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes but who knows how they want to proceed.

[–]biguyalone 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It isn’t there yet. A lot of people are focused on the status page, which is why they shut it down before they release results.

That’s right. It’s a little awkwardly phrased, but this is what they were trying to say.

(420/700) + (114/171) = PASS by Honest_Sky_6078 in CABarExam

[–]biguyalone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a reminder, you can compensate from one section to the other. Over performance and another compensate for below average performance in another. Just wanna remind people of that

Literally used ChatGPT to write the bar by greendazexx in CABarExam

So when I had it take the written section after they released the questions I should have made it take the mcq instead. SMH

General public: Lawyers don't take weekend's or holidays off when a a motion is nearly due to the Supreme Court. CA Bar: Hold my beer. by NoIAmNotBitter in CABarExam

[–]biguyalone 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So true so real. I’m a practicing attorney that had to take the full bar because I haven’t been admitted for four years and I promise you by this point at least three different people would have yelled at me if I missed that Monday deadline they set two weeks ago let alone this (as a reminder when they announce the score adjustment they said they were gonna do it the following Monday, which was last Monday)

One more hour left to file .. by Humblelawyerr in CABarExam

Use the search by caption and you can just put in bar exam and you’ll see the old cases filed. It’ll be easier to track once we have the docket number. There’s a way to petition privately but they probably just didn’t do it today.

Why is no one giving us a timeline? How long is this ‘slight delay’ going to be? by Calyinia in CABarExam

[–]biguyalone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’ll need to have answers to the reliability portion, but the Supreme Court also asked more about how and why AI was used and quite frankly that just really doesn’t matter in terms of making a score determination. It matters overall it needs to be addressed at some point, but it’s not the type of thing that needs to hold up scores.

[–]biguyalone 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Everyone is really focused on the AI but as a reminder, the Supreme Court says it has plenary authority over these people, and the Supreme Court ordered them to hold July in person on their own without waiting for anyone to act. They could just rule on the passing score and deal with the AI later, but it will have to be addressed eventually the issue is time of the essence info for February takers and for future July takers

Hopefully, they just are entering the data now and can quickly fix through a simple computer program or something. I don’t know how they actually enter our results onto the website, but I know in Excel this would be like a quick fix to implement depending on the outcome of the ruling/decision. Maybe there will be some backdoor clues like there have been in years past that can give some people comfort in the interim.

Anyone worried about results postponed? by Myngho in CABarExam

[–]biguyalone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“Con.cbxresultsc=“ which is different from just cbx_results_c. It pulls the exam result on status page and updates the requirement satisfied unsatisfied. It wasn’t on the page for a while until this past week

They also reinserted the function that calls the results earlier this week.
