Just want to say that I'm looking forward to this being the last weekend we will ever have to consume ourselves with bar prep ever again. Cheers guys and girls

I once thought this near the end of July. Oy vey...

This. It's only the last time until the NCBE says it isnt.

But that $800 they get for each retaker is so sweet

Do test takers fund the entire cost of the exam? $800+ seems expensive. The tax payers should help fund this

Law schools should be responsible for funding the cost of their students' first bar exam for X number of times and/or until they pass. (imo)

That would give NCBE a very good excuse to make the bar examination as hard as possible

Man, I could have learned a substantial chunk of a programming language with the time and effort I've spent on this bar retake. And if I combine both attempts...

Which ones you thinking about?

Ruby or Python for starters, both of them are supposedly relatively easy to learn compared to other languages.

is one of the most often cited intros to Python. It's what I used and it helped me.
Really though: The best way I've learned Python is to come up with a problem that I know is doable in Python and then find a way to code it. Learning through your own made up problems is a lot of times better than using some book or something with lots of little three line baby examples.
Example: Create a probability distribution for how well you think you did on each section of the bar exam. Then run 10,000 simulations and see how often you passed.

This MBE Refresher is evil, and not refreshing at all.

I'm already getting the jitters in my stomach.

Same The weird calm, confidence I've been feeling the past week or so has completely poofed.

[ReachTheBar79]

We will all be fine. Where is everyone sitting? I'm in MA.

Thank you! I'll pick it up after the bar is finally over.

[JoeAccidentally]

Anybody else have sudden drops in their MBE scores this past week? I've been confident for a couple months with strong MBE scores in Barbri and Adaptibar, and now suddenly every answer choice looks plausible and I have the worst time trying to narrow it down to even two. Don't know if stress or burn-out is setting in, but its an awful feeling going into the last couple days of prep.
