On Friday, November 20, 2009, California will release its bar exam results for July 2009.
For those who are unfamiliar with the Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, the play follows two days in the lives of a pair of men who divert themselves while they wait expectantly and unsuccessfully for someone named Godot to arrive. To occupy themselves, they eat, sleep, converse, argue, sing, play games, exercise, swap hats, and contemplate suicide — anything "to hold the terrible silence at bay".
I'm sure this sounds familiar to approximately 8000 law school graduates who lives are on hold until 6:00 pm on Friday, waiting for the results of the hardest bar exam in the nation.
Unfortunately for the bar applicants who are waiting for the California results to come in, they still have a few more days to pass the time and are trying anything to "hold the terrible silence at bay" as they wait for their attorney lives to resolve successfully or, at least this time, unsuccessfully. Regardless of the result, your life changes dramatically in just a few days. Will you be successful or will you have the fortitude to go at it again if you are not?
In my experience, these last few days are probably the worst of the wait - knowing its coming in as the time seems to go by infuriatingly slowly. Your parents, your friends, your family, your co-workers are also taking that slow wait with you, hoping and praying that you will be successful.
Good luck for those who wait and we here at BarProfessors hope your legal dreams come true on Friday.
