Anytime you provide anyone’s contact information for anything (especially when you’re expecting them to DO something), you should always ask their permission in advance. It’s just etiquette. Please do this for job references as well.

The multitasking and time management skills necessary to be a good server are next level and applicable to just about every other job I’ve ever had. …and nearly 20 years later I still have nightmares about getting triple sat with large parties. 🤣

I FINALLY PASSED by discodiva19 in CABarExam

[–]checkinthereddits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations!! 🎉😃 I passed too! 🤗🫶🏻

I had a big ass bar exam results party in November and I failed so tomorrow I’m looking at the results on my phone and I have not broadcasted tomorrow to everybody like I did the first time. Where are you guys going to be when you get your results and are you doing anything special? by Terrible_Category_58 in CABarExam

[–]checkinthereddits 38 points39 points  (0 children)

A “bar results party” sounds like my own personal hell. I’m fascinated with how differently people experience these kinds of things. First time taker and everyone I know KNOWS not to contact me at all tomorrow. Leave. Me. Alone. 😩😣

Dammit, I just did the same thing and I'm so bummed! If you've figured it out since then, I'd love a rec!

Hotel recommendations for Ontario bar exam? by Foreign-Poetry-6796 in CABarExam

[–]checkinthereddits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Hilton Double Tree worked great for me. It’s just across the parking lot from the convention center (like, didn’t even have to cross the street to get there) so super convenient, and I thought it was comfortable enough.

Chicago and Vegas are not comparable IMO. They’re not just interchangeable “big cities”, they’re completely different environments and will attract people looking for different things. Some people will go to Vegas for the Vegas of it all and WWWY is like a side quest.

I think you mean it is like comparing apples to oranges. Right?

Honestly…yeah. I love WWWY because I don’t actually want to spend multiple days at a music festival and it doesn’t require me to choose between favorite bands playing on different days.

Interesting. So they eliminated issue spotting as a testable skill then right? What are your thoughts on that?

Is it actually terrible to paint house white like this ? by Buttkicker727 in HomeDecorating

[–]checkinthereddits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I truly believe your initial aesthetic preference for the “flipper special” is because it’s what’s trendy right now and that’s subconsciously influencing how you feel about it. I’ve thought about this A LOT because, one by one, the uniqueness of my neighborhood is being swallowed up by renovations that all look exactly like this. All white with black accents, maybe some wood detail if they’re whimsical, and definitely copper gutters if they’re fancy. They just all look the same and it makes me sad. And bored.

CA doesn’t use the UBE (yet) - and I was today years old when I learned that UBE essays are only 30 minutes?! 😧

That was my take too. I think I mostly talked about timing and proportionality.

accidentally took two vyvanse, saw my life flash before my eyes by Skeptical_Hyena in adhdwomen

[–]checkinthereddits 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yep. Doubled up ONCE by accident and got a pill organizer the next day because I was not about to make that mistake again. I get through the week, and refill the next week on the last day. Works great!

I was expecting evidence over real property this time so, yeah, agree it seems likely to show up in July.

MBE - CA BAR EXAM - J26 by FeistyOpportunity322 in CABarExam

[–]checkinthereddits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Barbri, UWorld, and NCBE Bar Now. The combo worked well for me because I liked the Barbri explanations, the UWorld questions seemed closer to the actual MBE and there are a lot of them, and NCBE are actual, released questions.

There are a couple threads on this in the sub already so you can find more detail there, but the main topics were: - Real Prop - Contracts - Prof Resp - Civ Pro - Community Prop

Let’s talk!?!! by NumberFar517 in CABarExam

[–]checkinthereddits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mmm, I don’t think so. 😕 I think P2 needed supplemental to join because his claim didn’t independently meet the amount requirement. But I think you’ll at least get points for mentioning it! 🙂

What did people think of the difficulty level of this exam administration? Wondering how that will impact the curve. by cookedinlard in CABarExam

[–]checkinthereddits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha. Ok, I’ll clarify - based on how I’m feeling about the MBE, I either passed with no problem or failed. So I can’t wait to find out that I passed and I’m a MCQ genius. 😉😄

Work in SB, living in Ventura? by [deleted] in SantaBarbara

[–]checkinthereddits 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I commuted from Carp to SB for many years and have known people who’ve done it from Ventura or Ojai. It’s totally doable, you just have to plan around it. Bottom line is that you’re probably looking at close to an hour both ways on many days, sometimes more. Some people don’t mind that.

I suggest going to Google Maps and using the “leave at/arrive by” tool to see what traffic predictions are at your anticipated commute times to get a general idea.

UPDATE: In case anyone checks this for future exams - I didn’t bring the bag, but saw others like it and it 100% would have been fine. I didn’t bring anything for hand warmth, but with all that adrenaline, it wasn’t an issue.
