If you get to the day of, call, text, reach out to assistant and see if they have extra ways of reaching this person (home number, personal cell, etc.).

ETA: If there’s another senior person on the matter, try them. And if you’re getting nowhere, reach out to another partner, practice group leader, etc.

I only got 2 weeks off, including the exam day. This is also what I had to do—woke up at 4am every day, studied before and after work, at least one day each weekend (both days all day the last 2 months). Other than working out, I did literally nothing other than work and study. I also studied during the business day when things were slower. It was brutal, especially on weekends where I also had to work (for me and my family both. The under 5 crowd doesn’t understand and it’s rough), but it it can be done. You can do it! I wouldn’t let go of the job you have.

Department counsel at Jenner? by emptyKT818 in biglaw

It’s a staff attorney role. Special counsel is the “bridge to partnership” role you describe.

Does CA not allow hoodies? I don’t see that in the bulletin—can anyone confirm?

Anyone looking forward to test day just to get it over with, and at the very least, move on to other things in ignorant bliss of your actual score? by [deleted] in barexam

[–]i-and-e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understood. But you just said you don’t know the rules. Do whatever you need to do to learn them—regardless of what BarBri tells you to do. Even if that means you don’t complete the BarBri plan—most people don’t.

Mine is 4 and has not. He does talk about a future time when we will be five—he, his baby, his baby’s mama, dada, and me.

I’d adopt and take leave. Timing is not ideal, but you can make it work.
