How much law can I learn in ten days?
Hopefully a lot.
I've been studying for the Bar. It's dreadful. Far worse than when I studied to work at a bar; I still don't know what's in a Manhattan. Or what vermouth is.
No, this bar exam will put me and about 774 other fools together for two full days, and torture us with 14-19 different subjects. It drives me bananas that I can't even say with authority that there are x-number of subject tested on the exam. It's a counting and grouping issue, so the number varies depending who you talk to. Corporation and Partnership: one subject or two? It doesn't matter at all, but if I commit to the lower number, it seems like I've overlooked something. If I commit to the higher number, it seems like I'm exaggerating.
So far, I've spent most of my time on the subjects that are tested on the Multistate Exam. (Day two.) It will cover Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, Constitutional Law, Torts, Contracts, Sales/UCC, Evidence, and Property. Even with all the work I've put in, I'm just not where I need to be yet. That still leaves 8-11 subjects that have been basically not studied at all. Day One may be a problem.
Ah well. Let's go pull it together, eh?
