progress report: t(est) minus eight days
As of 9 PM, I had completed the following from today's list: all 70 planned Multistate questions, two essay answer copy-outs and half of a third, and a moderately careful reading of criminal law and procedure outlines (both multistate and Massachusetts distinctions) and the professional responsibility outline from the "mini review" book. (Mini, my ass--that was about 100 pages of review reading.) I also did an additional 31 Multistate questions for the sake of checking up on what I had learned from the other 70 (10 questions each on one subtopic of each of the multistate areas; two subtopics of contracts). That was a bit of waste of time and served mainly to stress me out even more, so I won't be going beyond teh 60 questions per day I've allotted for the next four days.
Since 9:00 I've read the agency and partnership outlines (we also ate dinner), and I'm mostly done with that third essay. Hopefully I'll be able to write out a fourth before going to sleep, but I'd really like to be in bed by 11:00 (11:30 at the very latest. Given the amount of work I did get done, I think that takes priority, Of course, I didn't get it all done on schedule, so no message board or New York Times for me tonight.
