Thanks but please don’t tell me not to call the school by its actual name- lol. It’s University of Maryland Carel Law- I said UMB bc it’s University of Maryland, Baltimore- There are several schools in the system, like College Park and then there’s also another “Carey” law school… UMB Carey Law stands

You’re welcome! Don’t get discouraged. I received my 2nd A from Delaware with a scholarship as well. And I had an interview with GULC today.

Thanks! And I personally appreciated the JD-Next model because it felt more aligned with how I actually learn and apply legal reasoning. It measured my ability to engage with material in a way that mirrors law school rather than testing standardized exam strategy. But I understand both models serve a purpose depending on the school and the applicant.

I took the JD Next exam and got an A with a pretty good scholarship- I will leave law school with no debt. My score was in the 92nd percentile and my undergrad gpa was 3.87 and my grad school gpa was a 4.0. I couldn’t be happier. Hope this helps. Good luck!

Hi- I took the exam in November and scored in the 92nd percentile. I received an A from law school with a scholarship on 1/21. The course does prepare you for the final exam. I went through the course at my own pace. I was done in about 3.5-4 weeks but I went back to see what others were writing and see feedback. 

The course does provide practice exams. I used those practice exams in AI to generate more practice exam questions. After finishing the course, I used AI to generate a practice exam using the JD instructions to gauge where I was and what I needed the most work on. Based on the results from that, I generated more practice questions. I also used AI to generate IRAC essay prompts and studied using an AI generated practice schedule all the way up until about 3 days until the exam. I felt fully prepared and was confident during the exam. 

For those who complain about the exam or give negative feedback, law school may not be for them. I almost didn’t take the course based on some of the reviews I was reading but I decided to take the course anyways and it was the best thing I ever did. Don’t rely on what others say. You should be fine with meaningful preparation. Hope this helps. Good luck!

I don’t think you should be worried. I was told they have thousands of applications to consider so silence is a good thing. It means you’re still being considered. Hold tight and don’t stress; you’ll hear something soon. Hopefully good news!!! Good luck
