More partial results are in...

More results are in and they are kind of ambivalent. My MBE score is in and I got a 128.3 the low score was a 103.0 and the high was 182.9. According to my calculations that puts me in the 31.6th percentile, on average over the past 8 years you need to be in the 30.2nd percentile to pass (so far so good). When I took the bar the first time I got a 119.7 which put me in the 24.3rd percentile.

So I guess it will all come down to how I did on the essay portion of the bar. Keep your fingers crossed and pray for me. As a side note, I got my first jury duty summons in 15 years, I guess that's what I get for reregistering to vote. Also if you look at my profile you will see that my occupation is no longer listed as an Attorney. I actually got a letter from the Arizona Supreme Court informing me they saw my profile on blogger.com and requested I correct the information.

OK partial results are in...

I got an email about an hour ago informing me that my MPRE score report is available, the minimum score requirement for Arizona is 85 scaled. When I took it 7 months ago, a week after my first AZ Bar Exam attempt, I got a 66 (I also didn't pass the Bar Exam)...

In case you can't read the fine print I scored a 109, which is above the average (100) and is WELL above passing. I'm hoping that the foregoing is a foreshadowing of things to come over the next month or so. We shall see...

As you can see there is a little bit of crossover between my 2 teams, 6 of the 20 players are the same on both teams. It would have been 20 of 20 if I had my way, but I guess other people like the players I've picked too. I have a couple other teams but they don't mean as much to me as these 2 do. This is my 4th year in the DFFL and my brother and 2 good friends are in my free league. Here's to a great fantasy football season.
