Nope, nope.

Worst thing is: I keep refreshing the page, hoping maybe they'll post results early. No such luck, though.

When specifically will scores be released? 8:00 am?

I checked WSBA's website for a schedule, but they only list 2017 (which shows 8:00 am).

I am going to crush a few beers and watch the Pats and Panthers. Hopefully that will take my mind off of it.

Nope. I'm at the point that I want them right now and also don't even want to look at them.

Worst is, i'm at this conference tomorrow where I know a lot of judges and attorneys and I know they'll be asking all day about them, especially since they did today.

A few? Your goal should be to be shit housed by the time the results come out. When you find out you passed it will be awesome!

Passed! 311. 151.90 for MBE, 158.90 for Written. I spent 80% of my prep time on MBE, but felt like I crushed the essays.

holy smokes! congrats. i get that passing is passing and that is all that matters, but 337 has to be ~97-98 percentile, right?

Congrats! That is an AWESOME UBE score. You should transfer your score into as many UBE jurisdictions as you can afford or your employer will pay for just to show each state bar how you absolutely murdered the UBE.

Congrats on an AWESOME score! Do you mind sharing what bar prep company or study methods you used?

I used Barbri and did about 85% of my PSP - all of their practice questions in my plan, plus a bunch of the supplemental questions they had elsewhere on the website (the "drills," "Set A," etc.). I was also having a pretty difficult time with torts and contracts, so I rented an old copy of Emmanuel's to sharpen up on the MBE in those areas once I finished Barbri's questions.

I started off my studying using Critical Pass flash cards, but abandoned those pretty quickly. I liked them a lot, but found myself taking too much time to add miscellaneous details to them so I gave up and just followed my plan (reviewing my lecture notes and the CMR).

As for essays, I mostly just went through Barbri's essay book and copied down the rules from their models/rubrics and studied those over and over again, in addition to outlining answers once I got further along in studying. I also recorded myself reading some of the notes from MEE subjects I was struggling with and played them a few times before bed, the week before the exam.

Hope this helps!
