NCBE C&F

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Jul 29, 2019 7:39 pm

I know that this is more of a bar exam question, but that section is mostly 3Ls that wouldn’t be able to help.

I am submitting my information for the NBCE C&F and one of the questions asks whether you’ve been terminated or been allowed to resign in lieu of termination.

At a prior legal job, I got the axe but was able to negotiate a resignation.

Does termination on C&F mean termination for cause or any old termination?

It would suck to not pass C&F because I got fired from a biglaw job around the time many people do...

Answering yes isn't a bar to admission. It just means a follow up question from NCBE.

Tell the truth and explain when they follow up that it was for economic reasons (or whatever, which it sounds like it was). This isn't a big deal.

Thanks for the response. Yeah, the practice group was very slow.
