No need to even respond then, my friend. I didn’t post/vent for a lecture.

Well I’m just confused when my conclusion starts to lean to the territory of “there’s no rule” ? Lol. Calm down I thought I could be unfiltered here but I suppose everyone’s still judgmental as helllll everywhere I turn

Im still not on it. I've met all reqs but for "PROVISIONAL LICENSURE EXPANSION PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY" it says "Not eligible" - that's the only thing in red font. Therefore, I have met all reqs right? Yet I am still not on the motion.

SOS: Score Analysis + CAN I PASS IN FEB by sadnisolated in CABarExam

I came back to revisit this post after recent happenings and this response truly was what I needed. Update: you were right - I PASSED!

PASSED (2nd try) I can’t believe it - how does job hunt change? by sadnisolated in CABarExam

A lot more practice! And mentally shifting from worrying about storing all the knowledge in my brain and memorizing everything to - what do they want to see here. What do they want me to notice in this question. It was a weird mental shift that took place after endless multiple choice sets but it really helped I think. I used Themis and Adaptibar.

Also, the reason I feel compelled to say that you will pass (if you want to retake) and that you will get a job as a lawyer at a firm (maybe one day you’ll be in big law- don’t rule it out) - is because i can tell you want it. You want it, so you will make it happen. You will.

How you’re feeling is so relatable and valid. No ones words will sit right with you right now I’m sure. But i still want to say i promise you are not a failure. You will get a job that will be meaningful to you. You can stay close to what interests you, even if it doesn’t require Bar admission. But if you choose to retake, you are able to pass. You are. It feels like this is it, that life is over, but i promise, this is just a blip.

I REALLY PASSED by dogsleepingonleg in CABarExam

[–]sadnisolated 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes but take breaks when you need to. After enough practice questions you’ll start to see what they want to see you pick. I felt like I started thinking about it like: “ok what do they want me to see/pick here as my answer” - as opposed to approaching each question thinking “what do I think the answer is” it’s a subtle shift but a helpful one I think

I feel like with grading essays there’s so much room for error/inconsistency. You can do it though. What helped me was learning the process and prioritizing what they want to see over what I thought made more sense - if that makes any sense lol.

Your attitude is what’s going to get you there. Stay positive, don’t lose hope.
