Re: Question
Most employers won't call you in for an interview unless you are at least top 20. So the higher you can get, the better.

Re: Question
Probably won't help for biglaw or federal government positions that require top 20%.
UBE ? If so, what was your score ?

Re: Question
I took the bar before the UBE was a thing, but does it actually tell you where you placed? Someone from my school was reported as having the highest essay grade average on that particular year's state bar exam, but I can't imagine that being a factor to hire someone. Not even sure how they figured out that result.

Re: Question
Its one of those things you can put on your bio when you are a 50 year old rainmaker. A la Fred Bartlit has "highest GPA at Illinois law in the history of the law school" , or maybe firm will post something on linked in. Don't think it will impact a hiring decision at all

Re: Question
In my mind, the bar exam is pass/fail and no one cares about anything beyond that. That being said, slap it on your resume and report back your results.
