keep your shirt on
...and your hat, apparently. I called the Board of Bar Examiners this morning. I was told I can wear a head covering, but someone will take me into the ladies' room before the exam to check underneath it, I guess to make sure I'm not cheating.
The next question is: do I make a point of wearing a religious-looking scarf that covers all of my hair so it will be easier to explain the day of, or do I just wear the same damn sort of hat or bandana I normally wear and hope I don't have to deal with too much skepticism?
I say you should cover every bit of hair, wear a doody length skirt, dark stockings, and a wrist-length shirt--just for appearances in the ladies' room with this cheater-checker person! Actually, from your description of the test center, it sounds like you'll want to be that covered up to protect yourself from the chill!
Actually, just the thought of the breeze under a skirt in that room is making me shiver. I'm seriously considering long underwear.
just wanted to say I freakin' love your blog...
