On my way up the hill to the examination room that sunny mm-ning I realized that I 'ci rather be writing childrevfs stories. Peter Ian Honigsberg New York University School of Law Currently: Writer of children's folk tales Imagine spending three years: ir memorizing the contents of 26 feet, 7 inches of books lapproximately 911 lbs., for those readers who are heavy thinkersj, 'lr listening to 1,800 hours of lectures, 'lr taking thirty examinations, and -A' spending 525,000 - S50,000, only to be told that all your reading, all your listening, all your money, and all your success on the examinations quallty you tor absolutely nothing except the right to take one more exam- the Bar Examination. Imagine now being told that the Bar Exam tests not so much what you learned in the 1,800 lecture hours or the 26 feet, 7 inches of books, but on your ability to completely memorize the contents of another eight-inch thick outline. Imagine next being told that in order to get this magic outline, you must pay an additional S800 and spend a couple of months at another school. Imagine going to this new school with the knowledge that even if you read the magic outline 18 yours a day, evict your teddy bear and sleep with the bar outline clutched to your breast, your chances of flunking the examination are one in two. Imagine sitting in the Bar Examination for three days, surrounded by grey-faced classmates trying desperately to make it into the top 50 percent. Imagine how you will feel if you succeed. Imagine how you will feel if you fail. Imagine how you will feel if you do something else entirely with your life. From 29 Reasons
