i get to the library at 10:30 or 11AM, stay until 7 or 8pm because the library fucking closes. go home, study more, usually one or two more essays, 50 MBEs on my phone, random subject.
fucking stressed man, goddamn.
i have written out full essays for 25+ essays in the past 5 days, learned what a PT was (seriously) and outlined 2 PTs, listened to a lecture or two, a light load of MBEs...

Date: July 14th, 2012 10:48 AM Author: Chest-beating business firm generalized bond I'm motivated, but feeling frazzled. There's too many fucking subjects on the NY bar exam.
When I took the midterm, it was fine because it was only 7 subjects. Now it's 21 subjects and I'm having a hard time remembering all of this shit.
I don't know. I still have a ton to do, and so far essays are sucking my balls.
I figure that we just need to drink a ton of red bull and get on with it. |

Man, barbri lectures are SHIT for essays. A lot of it tests on stuff not covered in there.
like "exclusive agency" v. "exclusive right to sell".
i might have to read every single essay answer |

|
Date: July 14th, 2012 1:04 PM Author: hot volcanic crater essays fucking suck. in TX we have 12 essays on the last day of the exam. we know the topics, at least. but there's basically no overlap with MBE topics. right now I'm trying to learn oil and gas. never heard any of this shit before today and the exam is in a week. just lol
our essays are 40% though... equal to mbe... CA mbe is only 35%... sounds like a nightmare man
the bar would be a breeze if it was just the MBE |
|
Date: July 14th, 2012 1:09 PM Author: henna floppy resort LOL. of course TX would have oil and gas law. yeah, Cal may be 3 days but the non-mbe topics aren't that bad... some like remedies is basically the same shit as covered in torts/contracts.

Date: July 14th, 2012 1:49 PM Author: shivering histrionic gunner hell I'm only studying like 5-6 hours a day; 140+ MBE raw, only have the MEE (bar breakdown MBE 50%, MEE 30%, MPT's 20%) (MEE is pretty much guaranteed 3 MBE subjects and 3 NON-MBE subjects which will likely be (Fed. Civ Pro/Wills and Estates/Family Law/Corporations); so I'm feel pretty good (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1993683&forum_id=2#21085187) |

Date: July 14th, 2012 2:27 PM Author: Excitant trailer park azn How do you know that about the MEE breakdown? I thought every subject had about an equal chance of appearing on an essay, meaning we could very well see some Secured Transactions/Commercial Paper/Trusts, FML.
I'm also taking the UBE (50% MBE, 30% MEE, 20% MPT) and hitting around 140-150 raw MBE, despite not studying that much. We're in good shape, brother. But I've done almost no studying for the non-MBE topics other than listening to the lectures and outlining them. |
