Hi, I just wanted to see how everyone was feeling right now since we're a few weeks away from the Bar. How does everyone feel? I'm pretty nervous and anxious, but excited to be done. I also had a dip in my MBE performance over the past few days which shot my confidence. Anyone else feel the same?

Second here for me. Not enjoying life right now. There is so much material and I don't feel like I am retaining much of anything. I am doing Themis and with MBE question sets, I go from scoring in the low 50's to mid 70's...there seems to be no rhyme or reason. I barely missed last time, so really hoping that the renewed effort this time will get me over the edge. At least it's almost over, I am ready for the relief.

You'll do fine! Just keep it up, we're almost there. I was doing poorly on the MBE two weeks ago and then it went to mid 70s' as well. It's weird. I barely missed last time as well and hoping for a pass this time around. I'm ready for this to be over...

Thanks for the positive vibes. My performance isn't quite where I would like it to be, but I think it will be "good enough". I am on track to have completed about 2200 questions, so I don't know that there is much more I can do. I am very, VERY thankful that there are only 11 days until the exam. I have spent so much time sitting at this damn desk, my back is screaming in pain. Yes, I am a little older than the traditional bar taken (mid 40's) but damn...

OK, back to studies.

You have no idea. I have also spent way too much time on this desk. My performance could use more work as well, and I'm nervous about the MBE portion. I also hope that I am able to get some sleep the night before.. I'm so done with this.
