"90% of people from ABA schools pass. Look at that box over there. If you don't pass, have all your stuff from your desk in that box and get out of here before I get into the office."

"You know Jane Doe? She took it and passed the first time!"

"If you studied hard, you shouldn't be worried."

I had a acquaintance tell me this, though to be fair while studying but haunted me into results:

"I had a friend who was a C student at this TTT, and he barely studied and passed, I don't know why you are so worried about it."

Fawk, I failed (got results earlier)... well, I'm sure you passed though. I believe in you.

This would probably stress him/her out.

Constantly asking if someone got their bar exam results yet. It drove me insane when I was asked.
