April 30, 201511 yr Congrats Joker. Go celebrate, hard. Hahaha... don't tempt me. I'm in between jobs for the next two weeks, so I've been tutoring. My night is actually going to be a night of full sleep. I've been to an orientation today, had an interview yesterday, and tutored three different times in the last two days as well. Some time with a pillow and HBOGO is in order.
April 30, 201511 yr That's a great weight to have off of your shoulders. Congrats! You are telling me. Texas' Bar is a bear. Three days and the first day is an MPT, Civ Pro & Evidence, and Crim Pro and Evidence. They get you nice and wore down before you go up against the national scale the next day for the MBE when everyone else is on their first. All or nothing, so retakes are the full thing. I'm just glad I'll probably never have to take a Bar Exam again if I wait 5 years or so.
April 30, 201511 yr So proud of you Joker!!! Will you be coming back to Ky to practice? Not for awhile I'd say. License is only good for Texas, but can get a reciprocal without having to take the Kentucky Bar after 5 years I think. If I did it before then, I think I'd have to take one day of Kentucky's testing for the stuff that's just State specific, but I'm not trying at all to sign up for any more bubble sheets. Have a job lined up at an Oil and Gas place down here and am probably one of the only people on the site who might not be bothered if the price at the pumps crept back up a little.

Tues: 6 essays AM/2MPT PM; Wed: MBE & MBE; Thurs: 6 essays in the AM and then you get to worry for 2 mos until they release scores.

No bubble sheets in KY. 1 day of straight essay, and to be honest, it is easy.

The night after I actually took the test was the night I went crazy. After the month leading up to it, I was ready to get nuts. The night after I found out I passed sounds a lot like yours.

April 30, 201511 yr Agreed. Anyone I know who didn't pass the first time got stuck on the MBE, not on the KY essays. MPT killed me here. MBE was actually my highest.
April 30, 201511 yr No bubble sheets in KY. 1 day of straight essay, and to be honest, it is easy. Doesn't sound bad at all. How many subjects and do the topics rotate? We have a few static each year and then a few that rotate between various topics (Trusts/Guardianships, etc.). Studying is kind of a game of roulette.
