MPRE review...

thursday night at school was the big-bar-prep-company-sponsored MPRE review session. four hours of way cool fun!

lemme sum it up for you...

I.

krista and i sat next to each other. about five minutes into the lecture, krista and i made a murder/suicide pact. it went like this:

note from k to e: KILL ME
note from e to k: no. me first.
note from k to e: m/s pact?
emily: (nods)

II.

each of us suckers who signed up for the course got a 28 page photocopied fill-in-the-blank outline for the review session. the lecturer/instructor guy went through the material and we were to fill in the outline with the information he gave us. krista wrote me a note that said:

"worst madlib ever"

this is why krista is my best friend.

III.

mr. lecture guy pretty much only used male attorneys in his examples. should i really care about this? probably not. but he kinda sucked. and he wasn't funny. at all. he kept making jokes that were not funny. yet, everybody laughed. which means one of two things:

(a) my classmates have terrible senses of humor, or
(b) my classmates are much more polite than i am

* * * *

that's about it. not entirely worthless, but it was full of dumb test-taking strategies that anybody with a basic understanding of the difference between "should" and "must" already knows. eh. what can you do? one week before the MPRE! hoo-ray!
