No one really ever wants to talk about failure. And I think I understand why. The thought of failing is scary, embarassing, and in most instances not really an option. Nevertheless I am having a freak out session in my mind.
according to a friend of mine that is doing fed district ct clerkship -- "You can fail the bar. She goes on to say that she wants me to be aware because, "no one ever broke it down to her like that when she was studying. On a positive note though, you have the ability to alter the outcome of your bar experience by putting in the time now." That was motivating
According to another friend, the one that's at a top BIGLAW litigation firm, "you aren't going to know everything, even the night before the bar." Now that's reassuring, yet still somewhat unhelpful.
Friends.
So today, I'm thinking . . .how in the hell should I approach the subjects that I've already fallen behind on-- Fed Judx and Civil Practice like the back of my hand. Does anyone out there have tips on how they tackled these two subjects -- and quickly.
This reminds me of a lesson I learned during first year, there's no such thing as a short cut.
Happy Studying.

I haven't passed or failed the bar exam so maybe my comment is an uninformed one.Anyway,I am going to make it. There's a really high NY pass rate for Georgetown grads so maybe you can use that to comfort you. It seems that an essential part of passing the bar is the knowledge of the substantive material , but another necessary part is confidence in yourself:-)
I believe you can FLY!
Mirenda hit it right on the head.... 92% of Georgetown folks pass the NY bar. Sleep peacefully with that little tidbit under your pillow. If you go to class, do your work, and chillax in the exam, you should be fine. I fell behind but made it up as much as I could and passed. Also, its not July 4th yet so no damage short of not even cracking a book is unreversible at this point. Whatever you've been doing right, keep doing; whatever you've been doing wrong- quit slacking and get into high gear for the second half.
I KNOW you can do it.
errr... irreversible? Whateva honey
Me loves friends that don't let you sulk in your own self-pity. *smooches*

My Portugese speaking (typing) friend Rodrigo says that he likes the site. He has a site on how to make your own t-shirts. Click on his link for more information, but beware, you will need to check into babelfish for translation if you don't do Portugese.
