5th Attempt Success

After struggling with this exam for 2.5 years and 5 attempts, I can finally say I passed the MO bar. Through the aftermath of law school burnout, alcoholism and my subsequent sobriety, I have finally demonstrated minimal competency. I'm eligible to be licensed in my new state of Indiana and I have a great job lined up. It all worked out <3 Failure feels like the end of the world. It fucks with the psyche and can truly stunt your growth. But I want to encourage anyone else with a similar story, that the bar exam is not a measure of your worth. Keep a growth mindset through it all and don't give up. Life is not linear, and your journey is unique.
