What do you do while waiting for bar exam results?
Wrote in June, waited about seven weeks, and that wait was worse than the studying was.
Putting this here because the November lot will hit it eventually and nobody warns you. You go from a schedule and a purpose to absolutely nothing, and you cannot do a single useful thing about the outcome.

The wait broke me more than the exam did. I reconstructed about nine questions from memory in the first week and convinced myself I had failed on all of them.
I had not. Easy thing to say afterwards, but stop doing that if you can.
Booked something to look forward to in week five. Genuinely helped just having a date in the calendar that was not results day
The other thing nobody mentions is what happens when it does not go your way. You have spent seven weeks bracing and it still knocks you sideways.
Give yourself a fortnight before you make any decisions about rewriting. I signed up again about four days after and I was not thinking clearly.
That is a really useful thing to say out loud, thank you.
Saving this for november me
