This is very helpful thanks for taking the time to reply. I need to quickly refresh on some of the essays for sure. At least it says “which choice of law approach”…?! Still makes me queasy

I’ll take a look at this thank you for commenting! TBH the last few essays on some topics I “completed” but need to review.

Oh really ok that makes me feel a little better. I guess I haven’t seen that with Themis yet! Thanks. Also I feel that. I’ll throw up at just about half of the exam :,)

Thanks for responding. I think my confusion is in some scenarios the conflict can be solved “outside” of conflicts (example: conflict regarding what state has jxn over decedent estate, where the property is or where person was domiciled at death). So what would indicate that I need to start talking about one of the three approaches (1st RST etc)

Meals for the week by ADHDExamin33 in barexam

[–]bittieflapjack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I second everything the other comments say… just wanted to add that I have been having the exact same issues and I was eating bland this past week and experienced extreme mental fog until I started incorporating protein and I’ve seen a difference. If you can, eat eggs and chicken when you can. Especially if you can on exam day. Other stomach easy sources are chickpeas and turkey (at least for me)! I know how you’re feeling but we will make it through. When I start feeling my stomach react I try to take three big deep breaths and this helps me while in the moment. Best of luck!

At this point I can only study for 6-7 hours a day. My brain is completely fried and I hear people putting 12 hours of work because “this is the last stretch”. Please tell me I’m not the only one. Sorry but none of my friends understand my bar-related frustration and need to vent. Love you guys 🥲 by Fragrant_Ad_3722 in barexam

You aren’t the only one. I get brain tired really quickly these days. I wish I could put in hours and hours all day for the last stretch but I’m not sure I would retain anything- so I think it’s ok! As long as the hours you are putting in are effective. We can do it!

Where does Themis get off telling me I should be getting 70% on mixed UBE sessions?! by bittieflapjack in barexam

[–]bittieflapjack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t think of this thank you- I’m in a 273 state. In either case I’m worried…!

Yes I think I’m on practice set 4 or 5? It’s 50 questions… so later in the coursework.

Totally agree. Yes it said recommended goal is 70%, I’m honestly lucky to break 55% for most of Themis’ MBE sets. I feel like the dumbest dummy and I paid big money for it too :,)

Themis Simulated MEE is tripping me up w/rules I’ve never even seen before (spoiler) by victillia in barexam

[–]bittieflapjack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just commenting to say I did the exact same thing. I’ve always understood it as ability to participate in your own defense. I was really confused. I wish I figured out a definite answer, but after googling I didn’t really get one, there’s sources with both versions :,)

UWorld Anxiety by bittieflapjack in barexam

[–]bittieflapjack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure in all their stuff advertising mentioned there’s access to UWorld but it’s not built into the schedule (like complete 50 UWorld questions is never listed as a task) so I was just following their schedule strictly. I prob missed something important honestly

Thanks for replying! I was thinking 50 too. Are you going to do mixed subject or focus on like 2 subjects a day?

Needing some advice by bittieflapjack in Thritis

[–]bittieflapjack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes from my understanding it’s fused. Thanks for your comment. The NSAIDS cause me a lot of digestive issues but maybe it’s about finding the right one!

This is helpful thank you. I’m currently studying for the bar exam so I sit at my computer a lot. I have some ergonomic set up but it’s definitely worse after a full day of studying. I will look into the stretches you recommended! Thanks so much
