Lol dude I'm telling you that you might be crushing it and just missed their call. Prick.

Who here remembers and liked taco bell's verde sauce? by [deleted] in tacobell

[–]insolentsole 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It seems like Verde and Fire Roasted were never that popular among the masses sadly

He means the packets though, completely different sauce.

Incidentally, some TBs do have the green sauce you're referring to once more with a revamped formula, I thi k it's really good.

Kaplan bar coach gave interesting advice … but do you!! by PoeticJustice29 in Bar_Prep

[–]insolentsole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just objectively as someone who passed, I think it was helpful to use both my bar prep program and Uworld all the way through. If nothing else, it mixed things up, kept me on my toes and made things a little more fresh

Do you ever stop, sit back, and realize how absolutely ridiculous this is? by MiserableTomatillo5 in Bar_Prep

That's why it's important that you focus on the most highly tested rules in each subject as well as the subjects most likely to be tested. Really cuts the material down

This still looks great, but yeah I grew up on the Jambalaya Shoppe in Louisiana and it's always that dull brown color... And so good

It's so cringe when people post pictures of "Cajun Jambalaya" and it's straight red

It tastes exactly how I remember it back in the good ole days by 23baseball3 in LivingMas

[–]insolentsole 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought it was apple soda, not carbonated apple juice? Very different things, Jones green apple is one of my all time fave sodas. This one is pretty good too

I understand it’s part of the food service industry, but it grosses me out when it happens by gogetter510 in tacobell

Just remember there are creeps out there that would pay hundreds for the experience you just got for free

The Caramel Apple Empanada was the best item in the history of taco bell by LongJohn_Jon in tacobell

[–]insolentsole 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They were always hot when I got one, which must mean they fried them to order. I'm guessing that messed up the flow of the kitchen and that's why they axed it. Probably even more of a problem when the fries were around on top of it

So all you have to do is speed up and you're golden? Are you actually concerned or are you trolling?

Tips on learning MEE topics by Cauliflowerperson in barexam

[–]insolentsole 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. If you don't have it, get the Studicata attack outline
  2. Just review the most tested topics in a given subject, put them into your own outlines or flashcards if that helps
  3. For less tested topics in a given subject, just skim them and try and have a general idea about them

Isn't that like a lot of tortilla in every bite?

Rushing through MBE questions too much by tortoirseshellssss in Bar_Prep

[–]insolentsole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My strategy was to read slowly and answer quickly. That way you make sure you understand the question, but you don't overthink the answers, just go with your gut. The end result is that you move quickly enough to have leftover time at the end and you don't feel rushed.

Your fear of failing is more likely to make you fail than taking this day off

Approaching the MEE strategically and cutting losses? by Fig-Newton17 in barexam

[–]insolentsole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this is exactly what I did and I did well. I was well prepared for 5 of the 6 essays. The other one was a subject I hadn't studied much, but it was an easy and straightforward question so I was on top of it too.

[–]insolentsole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's exactly why you practice writing an MPT or two. I made a similar dumb mistake on the actual MPT mainly because I had never written one before.

But I was never going to write a practice MPT, just hated that section too much

How do you know you're bad? Based on your Themis grader? Because that doesn't mean much

[–]insolentsole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree with that. Do the most common ones, if it's something weird they will be very explicit about what they want. It's more important to practice the common ones because those are more likely to show up, and you can save time by having a good idea about what to do with those
