are you taking a class or just winging it?

Don't the classes make it a little more tolerable or is that where you are posting from now?

HERE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My freaking birthday is tomorrow (Tuesday) and you won't believe the amount of work that I did this weekend just so I could go out with friends and enjoy myself without thinking that I should be home studying!

What Bar are you studying for? I'm studying for the Illinois Bar (but I'm taking the BarBri class in St. Louis where I've been living for 4 years...thankfully...I've heard g-d awful things about taking the classes in Chicago in terms of stress levels and such).

Good luck to you all.

My brother-in-law tells of the summer day he took the Ohio Bar in an un-airconditioned room at Ohio State.

Temperature 90+ and high humidity -- with some kind of loud band playing elsewhere in the building.

He passed.

I had something of the opposite experience -- around 100 outside, but the air-conditioner was running so low inside, and we were dressed for summer weather, that I remember actually blowing on my hands and rubbing them together to keep them warm.

Good luck to everyone taking the exam!

I take the fifth and I am sure some will drink a fifth when it is all over!

The very best of luck.

Congrats!

I took CT and MA in February and passed both. If everything works out I'll never have to take another bar exam.

Are they typically reciprocal or do you have to take one for every state you're practicing/living in?

And the RA (Registered Architect)! I'm filing in another state because I can get registered there easier than NY, and then filing reciprocity right away. I'll never practice in AZ!

Thanks! Glad to be done and I'll have admission in two states by the end of June. My attorney job starts as soon as I get sworn in, so that's exciting as well.

So for the RA license, you have instant reciprocity? That's a great perk.
