I don't know how to convert from raw to scaled. But, I was told that they put everything on a curve and pass the top 80%.

I would love that to be true, but 80%? When the pass rate is 66%?

I talked about the miranda warnings (because he admitted voluntarily he trespassed) and not the mental state or so.

Yeah, i don't even need to come tomorrow i believe :?


I love that you talked miranda warnings. I wish I'd thought of it. On some of the questions I just defined terms. But from what I understand, that's helpful. I basically just memorized all the rules from sample essay answers in the Barbri NY book and applied them, sometimes more appropriately than other and I was really hoping for a 4A question.
Thanks I appreciate your kindness.

A very tired person is quoting another very tired person, who used to be an examiner.

Deleting because I'm paranoid and don't want this to look like I'm sharing test materials with the Internet.
