I’ve never heard of this, and I don’t believe it. I do not think they have any idea when they are looking at an exam whether it’s your first time or your 50th. I do think that it’s possible that the first few and the last few essays they see they grade more easily, b/c they have less to compare it to. However, it could also work in the reverse. Meaning, they are harder on the first few and the last few b/c with the first few, they aren’t sure if everyone missed these issues or not. Supposedly, you are given credit for what you write (and of course how you write it). I passed a bar exam and am going to take another one in February. I plan to know as much as I can and leave the rest to God!
