Bar Exam: Day Two

Today was the Multistate Bar Exam (MBE) - 200 multiple guess questions. Yep, another Spies Like Us quote:

"Look at these samples. All multiple choice. It's easy. Here: 'If discovered appropriating classified documents at a foreign consolate reception, you should: A) express concern; B) act surprised; C) deny everything; and D) all three.' The answer is D) all three. It's common sense stuff."


Actually, the MBE was quite tough. But that's the nature when every question has at least two viable answers.

Despite that, I ended up finishing about 15 minutes early. Having to remain in my seat, I entertained myself by playing with my pencils and catching quick glimpses of the cute girl facing me a few tables away (ring on her finger, though). I think that I made her laugh with the ol' "rubber pencil" illusion.

You couldn't go back and check your answers?

Go with your gut, my friend. If you don't know it when you first see and think about the question, it likely won't come to you in a bit (although it's happened before). Plus, I hate second-guessing myself.

Why am I here? Why are you here? Why is anybody here? I think it was Jean-Paul Sartre who once said...how do you spell Sartre?Owww...and let that be a lesson to you.

They don't teach the rubber pencil trick in med school?

KPMD - Hopefully this breaks it down into language that you can understand: http://www.joysikorski.com/RubberPencil.html

As for your last remark, only when they want to make a baby. Otherwise, they want their man limp and emasculated.

Where/how did you find that link?

Googled "rubber pencil trick" and voila!

I do not understand this "google" thing.

Well, judging by the sweatshirt this chick wore yesterday, she went to Akron Law School, which I believe has the lowest bar passage rate in the state (yes, even lower than my school's rate). So, she may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer. It's okay...she'll coast by on her looks.
