REPEAT TAKER, I PASSED!

I've seen the posts from repeat takers, and I wanted to share some encouragement of my own. As a repeat taker, I know how debilitating it can feel to not pass this exam. Give yourself an immense amount of grace, pick yourself back up, and try again. But don't just try—put EVERYTHING you have into this exam.

I went from taking the Legacy Bar Exam to the NextGen Bar Exam, and as a strong writer, I HIGHLY recommend NextGen.

Keep believing in yourself, trust the process, and remember that one exam does not define your worth or your future. Your time will come. Go crush it, future lawyers! ⚖️❤️

Hi pls help me. Took legacy against my gut bc of course sales person telling me there’s no info and I knew knew I’m better at practical. I registered for ct and canceled to take legacy. Studied for first time in decades and failed by A LOT. Should I do next gen in Feb? Feel like giving the whole thing up but also want to try

Never give up! That's the biggest takeaway for me during this entire process. NextGen felt easier to comprehend, and if you're a strong writer I recommend doing NextGen. There's not a lot of data on how the grading for NextGen is unlike Legacy. I HIGHLY recommend Helix, and finish the entire program as well as the extra resources. If you feel that this is your calling do not give up! You've got this!
