GOOD AFTERNOON, JULY BAR PREPPERS! You are good enough; you are smart enough; and goshdarnit, people like you. You're almost there, and you are probably never going to feel "ready," but you made it this far, and dammit, you've got what you need to pass. Push through. ❤️

We love @yuhline!!!

[Jo Anne Simon 文雅麗 🟧 @JoAnneSimonBK52]

100% agree with this. That's fair.

Hey, if studying for the bar is pissing you off and stressing you out and making you depressed and anxious, I just want to validate that this process is absolutely nothing like the practice of law. Hating this does not mean that you are going to hate your career.

[Diploma Privilege for New York @dp4ny]

YES YOU DID!!!

This is WILD

I don't know that I'll *ever stop hearing bar exam stories that surprise me. Spoke with a student about an hour ago who got sick during the morning session. Went to the hospital during the lunch break. Took the afternoon session from the hospital.

Didn't pass but almost did.

How did we end up with a profession where the smartest, most hardworking people I know don’t pass a stupid exam because it’s built on ableism & classism, the very things our profession claims to advocate against???? Fucking abolish the bar.

Not cute, @StateBarCA

[National Assn. for Equity in the Legal Profession @NA4ELP]

The @CaStateAuditor released a report yesterday on the @StateBarCA's failures as it relates to administering the 2020 remote bar exam. Procurement of @ExamSoft software for the 2020 online bar didn't comply with its own policy.

Lawyers use swear words. Lawyers experience mental illness. Lawyers experience sexism, racism, classism, and ableism. Lawyers get things wrong. Lawyers need each other to survive.

I don’t know how this profession became so damn toxic that we can’t even admit that we are human.

YES, I PASSED THE NYS BAR! I should be celebrating, but can’t help but be filled with anger & sadness. I was disregarded and belittled because I needed accommodations. The hell I went through & the #trauma NY inflicted should not have happened. #disABLED #DoBetter Fuck the Bar!

Advocate, pass the bar, keep advocating, it’s a lifestyle 💅

I PASSED THE BAR EXAM. I PASSED THE BAR EXAM. I PASSED THE BAR EXAM.

[Aubre @aubredean]

Seeing people who advocate for diploma privilege pass the bar makes my heart so happy.

They tried to scare advocates into silence by telling us we needed to focus on studying or constantly ending their emails and interactions with condescending “good lucks”.
