If you received your bar exam results and did not pass, you owe it to yourself to watch this Free Video about what to do next. It will change your attitude, your approach and your results!
Sometimes I get notes from prospective students that just break my heart. Here’s one that I received this morning (the day after Florida Results were released):
“I am really confused here [about] my options. I took both parts of the Florida Bar Exam in July 2011 and I passed part 1 with a score of 142 and failed the MBE part with a score of 128 ( which is just below the average of the two parts).
Friends informed me to retake part 2 only and they will average both parts from the previous and the recent parts. I just received my scores for the MBE and got 134 which is below the 136 required but with the average of the two parts I could have passed. But apparently they will not use the overall method if you do not take both parts at the same administration.”
As I had to point out to this individual, their “friends” were wrong. Completely. Totally. Absolutely. And now, to this person’s dismay, they have to start over and retake the exam - again. All of this could have been prevented had this individual taken a bar review with a reputable provider instead of relying on hearsay, bar “mythology” and bad advice from friends.
In order to save a few dollars, it will now cost this individual several thousand dollars more, to say nothing of lost job opportunities and wages for 6 more months. Don’t be foolish. Go to experts for expert advice - not your friends!
