For those who used Themis and Grossman lectures together

Is it worth getting the Grossman lectures even though you have the Themis lectures? Specifically, I'm unclear on con law, evidence, crim pro

never got MPRE score email

Not sure if this happened to anyone else, but the only reason I knew the scores were out was because of Reddit. Then I checked my inbox my spam etc nothing to indicate that I should be checking. Looked at Pearson dashboard and saw my score.

So for anyone else wondering where the email is, just go check your dashboard and look up your score yourself. It's probably there.

Anyone else have problems following con law with Barbri?

Dean Chemerinsky is no doubt a brilliant mind but I am having issues following along with these con law lectures… anyone else have these issues?

What are some tips to get what you need for any MEE or MBE con law questions.

MPRE failed 3 times

I'm an LLM student who has taken the MPRE three times, completed Barbri classes, and did some Themis practice tests. I feel like giving up and would really appreciate any advice or tips.

am I dumb for failing the MPRE lol

I failed pretty badly and I’m kind of worried now for F25 because I actually studied for this. I feel like I have a bit of a disadvantage being foreign educated and this is my first time taking a US exam but I’m feeling a bit thrown off guard about taking the UBE now. Can someone give me any words of reassurance please

Question 15 on NY bar admission questionnaire — what???

What is this question asking “are you now or have you ever been, engaged on your own account or with others in any occupation, business enterprise, or profession (other than law and not included in question 14) in the state of New York or elsewhere?”

I’m confused on what it’s trying to ask? Is it asking if you have been anything other than an employee? Like an owner of a business? Or does it want us to list every single job we have ever had?

NY Admission help - What do I do now?

Got my MPRE score back today and passed for New York with a score of 93.

I have passed the NYLE (scores aren't given for passes).

I have passed the UBE with a score of 323.

Now what exactly do I do? The website says that I'll be certified for admission to a judicial department, but how and when? And then what?

Sorry if this is a dumb question. The NYBOLE website isn't totally clear on the process.

NY 2nd Dept. Videos Issue/Question

Hi! Has anyone had issues with seeing the embedded codes in the orientation videos? For some reason I have only been able to see two codes despite actually watching each video multiple times! I'm using Chrome on a Macbook so I'm not sure if that's an issue. Any advice would be very much appreciated so I don't have to keep wasting my time with this :D

Thank you!

VA Bar Exam

Does anyone have any tips or thoughts on taking the VA portion of the exam? I used barbri for an UBE jurisdiction, and now I have to take VA. Because I passed with just Barbri for the UBE, I am inclined to go with them again, but wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts otherwise.

NY Bar failed in July 2024, writing again in Feb 2025. Looking for advice on how to improve. I used Themis for the July bar and taking the course again but this time, I am also getting adaptibar. Still unsure on where I lacked and how to improve my weak areas

Pro bono form NYC

Hey everyone. I graduate in May 2025 and I’m taking the July 2025 bar exam. I just finished my semester internship (gov agency) and had my boss fill out the pro bono form for NY. 2 months ago I had my clinic professor fill one out as well.

Is it fine that I am having them fill this stuff out so early? Also do the forms need to be notarized within a certain timeframe of one another? TYIA!

Grossman: Fee simple subject to executory interest 

I was listening to Grossman lectures. He said if you have a fee simple determinable or fee simple subject to condition subsequent that then goes to a 3rd party which now creates a fee simple subject to an executory interest, this will violate rap and that persons interest will be stricken and it will just stay a fee simple determinable or subject to condition subsequent.

Is this true?
