Six Last-Minute Bar Exam Tips

4) Mid-Exam: Do Not Talk To Anyone About The Bar

Do not talk to other bar attendees about the bar during break. Do not talk to other bar attendees about the bar during lunch. Do not talk to other bar attendees about the bar Tuesday evening. Do not talk to your mother, your non-law school friends (should you still have any), or your significant other about the bar. Talk about the weather. Talk about your favorite band. Under no circumstances should you talk about how you did on certain bar questions, whether you think you passed, what you should have written instead, etc. Just don’t. Talking to other exam-takers will just lead you to believe you probably fucked up one of your answers. Talking to non-exam-takers about the bar is torture for both you and them. There are any number of other things you can talk about. Come Thursday, you can deconstruct every last molecule of the exam, but not now.
