Rock on, dude!I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

Or however the joke goes.
I think it ends with the D student being in Congress or some-odd thing.

ambulance chasing or defending OJ Simpson?
I'd rather munch on broken glass before spending my life wresting money from rich ******* X for rich ******* Y, so ideally I'm leaning criminal prosecution or investigation. That being said, in this job market I'd gladly be a hired gun for Satan if it pays the bills, and I haven't even knocked anyone up yet.

End of July, then it's off to the poorhouse for good.

I hope you're being facetious, because from the glimpses I've seen the bar is a goddamned joke that 99% of students from my state's top school pass and 93% from its bottom school pass. I honestly walked into the "practice" exam this morning hung over from about a dozen shots the night before, on 4 hours of sleep, with no breakfast, and still got 72% of the questions right by accident. After three years these things just settle into gut instinct.

Enjoy your next couple of months. Sounds like you've already figured out the most important thing to know at this point: the bar exam tests for minimum competence. You'll look around on the first day and more or less be able to pick out those who won't pass by lunchtime. Your friends and classmates will still be way too anxious and cramming way too hard during the whole exam. Do the month of BarBri mad-libs, the practice multistate questions, and a quick review of any problem spots the night before the first session and you should be fine. At that point, worrying and cramming become counterproductive.
I recommend having a beer or three each night, just not so much that getting to the test in the morning is a problem. Worked for me.Solomwi is very wise. - Imran Siddiqui
