Probably not legal, otherwise test prep companies would be doing it.

I don't care about probably. If you were my lawyer would I be paying you for probably?

Tell me why it would not be legal. Your reasoning sucks. What if I told you a prep company did publish that question?

you guys are A+ on issue-avoidance (which i suppose is important) but you're missing the point yet again. i'm not asking for legal advice, i'm posing a challenge and seeking suggested answers.

is the bar exam seeking legal advice from non-lawyers?? it poses legal questions without asking for advice. no? thought so ... so answer the question or get out.

This sounds like changing the names in a novel and trying to republish it.

Stop berating people. Why do you want to know this?

You're not paying him at all dipshit
Your "posing a challenge" only proves you're too much of an idiot to do your own research, and given your shitty attitude no one on this forum with an answer is going to help you

If you take an exact question and just change the variables, you are still copying the underlying thinking, which is what they are testing. I think you should not do it.

yes you think, very nice great opinion... ("think" always hurts your argument...)

but your first sentence makes a good point. so this question has a legal side and an ethical side... even if it is not strictly legal to manipulate a question (I don't know if it is) in this manner, is it morally/ethically wrong? After how much manipulation do they stop owning the question? Can they claim ownership of the "underlying thinking" forever?

You should be working on losing your virginity rather than making stupid threads.

honestly i've been lurking for a while and i recognize you as a pretty solid contributor, but your ad hominems are a non-starter

why is my question stupid? I think it is actually a very reasonable question to ask. if you're some enlightened god of wisdom, then please bestow your wisdom upon my fragile virgin mind.

It's not an ad hominem, as I'm not concerned at all with your argument (if you even have one). I'm giving you advice to quit making stupid threads.

"I think" is a signal of humility in this context and should not be taken literally. Learn to English better.

to find out the answer to the question: Does publishing or sharing the above question violate LSAC's copyright?

no part of my original post was sarcastic or joking; it was a legitimate question; i don't see why that is so hard to understand
