I was 100% certain I passed. I finished both MBE sections an hour early and my discussion of the essays with other exam takers made it clear that I nailed them. I could only find one minor issue I missed.

Two days before the bar was a different story. Since I didn't study much, I was extremely nervous.

this thread is not very helpful for the OP's original purpose- xoxo is probably the wrong forum for this.

so ill tell my story:

a classmate of mine was CERTAIN she failed. 100% certain. she said after the first torts question set, she decided she did not like the MC questions, and stopped doing them altogether. she didnt do a single practice essay or mpt. at the simulated mbe barbri gives, she said she only did half and then bombed it so bad she walked out and didnt finish the rest.

the day after the exam she was flipping out because she wrote basically one sentence for each prong of the essay questions, some of which were simply identifying the subject matter of the question. almost no analysis. she was absolutely certain she failed the bar and grossly underprepared.

this person passed the NY/Cali bar.

I hit a essay where I had absolutely zero knowledge. I did what the barbri people say and made up about 200 words worth of pure shit. Eventually I realized I was probably just digging myself into a hole and abandoned the essay in the middle of a bullshit sentence regarding some made-up piece of law.

I passed with a striverish amount of room to spare.

I was a full time associate while studying. Sucked balls. Had to study at lunch, during free time at work, on the commuter train, and at home. I studied probably half what everyone else did. Sucks to work all day only to go home to do mbe questions. Pocketed bar stipend and studied using prior year barbri books from craigslist and downloaded torrents of lectures.

Thought there was a 95% chance i failed. Passed.

I don't know about that. If you check out essays on baressays.com the grading is so arbitrary. Pretty solid essays written by people who clearly studied the subject and knew it well get failing scores. And the difference between a passing essay and failing essay isn't really discernible.
