Couldn't find a New Jersey thread, so thought I'd start one.
What did you think? Personally, I bombed two essays (1 morning, 1 afternoon), thought I did well on 2 essays (both morning I think), and maybe did so-so on the rest. With the MBE being a nightmare, I'm pretty worried about my overall score.

Re: New Jersey Bar Exam July 2015
Well, the first issue is whether or not you are the only who feels this way. Lol couldn't help it. Honestly, you are not alone, and some ppl who thought it was very easy or a joke probably missed some deceptive essay issues or answers, the exam looked straightforward but there were sim tricky hidden issues, so no one nailed every essay so missing a few will not fail you if you got some issues on them and made up by doing some work on the other essays.
As for the MBE, I have yet to hear anyone feeling great or confident about it. So for all you know you did well enough to pass or maybe even a little better, it's too difficult to tell.
It's a difficult exam and you're supposed to be worried about it, I was confident about the ny exam and iffy on the nj exam and uncertain about the MBE and have no idea what to expect.
I wish I could tell you not to worry or think about it but I'd be a hypocrite. I can't spend more than a few minutes without thinking about the issues I missed or answered incorrectly.
Just know you're not alone, sometimes that helps.

Re: New Jersey Bar Exam July 2015
Appreciate it. Yeah, figured I wasn't the only one, but didn't see a threat on it and was wondering what people thought. Before the exam I've heard from people who have taken the bar how NJ is generally considered easy, but I always thought the essays were much more difficult to fully answer than, for instance, PA essays. And as mentioned above, two of the essays gave me considerable issues, so just hoping that I made up ground one or two of the other essays (and didn't bomb the MBE).Ijustwant2pass wrote:Well, the first issue is whether or not you are the only who feels this way.
