For those Bar takers on a Tuesday-Wednesday schedule, it's over in about 4 hours. And personally I always found the second day harder from a stamina perspective. 200 questions make you question your sanity as well as your ability to be a lawyer. I'm think about you all...and thanking my lucky stars it's not me there with you. In fact, I sent in my full set of Bar paperwork yesterday to finally get sworn in. Unlike a lot of other states, New York makes you do the fitness and character paperwork after taking the Bar, not while applying to take it. And being the fatalist that I am, I waited to hear that I passed first before putting together all my papers. And no, I'm not that much of a procrastinator, I actually had to wait on receipt of affidavits from former employers before sending the packet in. I received the last one on Friday. But the best part...trying to get a readable copy of my passing notice. It's one of those mass-created slips that has a built in carbon paper section, which makes the actual notice look like a rubbing from a gravestone. 5 scans and 3 printouts later, I had something where you could actually decipher a whole name and social security number. Hopefully it doesn't look fake to the examiners. Labels: Bar
