 | Type or Write? Benefits
New resident to state taking bar after long hiatus from profession. In law school 15 yrs ago, no one typed and no one took bar on computer. Am I at a disadvantage by writing out essays. Essay day had 12 essays in 6 hours. I can type ok speed but seems like I would send a lot of time editing. Any thoughts?

Personally, I would type the exam. This is because you can rearrange your answer easily and I think its easier for an examiner to read your script which as to be a big plus. Also, I found when I handwrote the essays ( On the NY Bar Exam), I was absolutely exhausted by the time the afternoon portion started. By the end the hand felt like it was going to fall off. Had I not passed in Feb 09, I was definitely going to use a laptop for the previous reasons. Its a personal choice though. let me know how you get on. |
