Unless the fact pattern mimics a well known case, just look at what they've set up as the important facts, don't try to finesse it.

i agree. i don't think reading questions off a screen of a computer since I have been up since 6 am after studying for past three weeks will be dispostive of my performance Tuesday or Wed.

Not really true. You have to bite your tongue a lot, which I guess is a form of self moderation, instead of just calling out all the passive aggressive assholes.

The happy people living happy lives was a joke, but my point still stands, the place self-moderates, just in a different manner than here. Here, you can call Rontele a juvenile asshole with no repercussions, there, you might get in trouble (and thus self-moderate). But that board also avoids the defjef's, unibonger's, etc, that this board "enjoys", and the tone of the forums are, IMO, responsible for that difference.

It is wiggedy, but WTF, it'll be over before you know it. Two days ain't shit- after the first two days of California, I could still remember my own name and everything. Things were a little shakier after day three...

Give 'em hell buddy.

I agree. The last three weeks have FLOWN by and I feel very prepared. I have embraced the beauty of this exam and its role in the economic protectionism of our profession.

Good luck to you too, tomorrow and Wednesday. I can only strongly presume that internet killing is an adequate substitute for studying and that you will surely pass if the Bar Examiners were to read your posts on this board.

Thankfully your multiple choice questions were not the real test. :D

don't forget to toss the salad before the test, better yet, do it before you go to bed... so you can have a restful sleep.

One can only hope. I don't really have very high hopes, to be honest- I ended up missing a solid week of study time due to a family matter and am definitely in a hole, possibly one with a spite fence surrounding it. But I can construct a scenario where I pass- slay the MPT, get a couple MBE-based essays, then do okay on the MBE itself. If it's New York-heavy, I'm screwed.

Are you in Albany right now? I will imagine you will do fine. Good luck!

No, Manhattan, 'cause I live here. It's all the way over on the West Side, though- I was considering getting a hotel room, until I realized I didn't give a shit (what with interviews for LA jobs with Skadden, O'Melveny, and Bingham this Thursday and Friday).

I thought the exam was only given in Albany?

Awesome thread cuntage. I highly approve!

If you're out-of-state then it's only in Albany. If you live in Manhattan (at least) , you can take it at the Javits Convention Center. I don't know what the options are for all residents of the five boroughs, or NY residents who don't live in New York City.

Thanks for making me re-check my admissions ticket, though.

As for thread cuntage, it was really all over when Irul made that predictable hippie joke on page 1.

That is a nice luxury. I only have a short 10 minute drive to the Merchandise Mart for the exam. My buddy taking the Florida bar had to drive from Miami to Tampa today.

I loved all the idiots who got a hotel room next to the Merchandise Mart. Just where I wanna relax before and after exam day.
