With graduation in the rearview mirror, law school graduates now find themselves about a week away from one of the most important tests of their lives: the bar exam. This one test will determine whether or not they’ll be able to find success in the job market and whether or not they’ll become practicing lawyers.
It’s an intense time for recent law school graduates, and following wave after wave of record-setting failure rates on bar exams nationwide, many of them are incredibly nervous about how they’ll perform on the July 2016 exam. How confident are they?
Recent law school graduates have started using Whisper, an anonymous messaging service, to tell the world about how they’re feeling about the bar exam. These messages are representative of the general tone of posts having to do with the bar exam.
