Right before my 2L law school contracts exam, *someone* wrote on the board: “Crying won’t help you, praying won’t do you no good.” :->

My favorite law school exam apocryphal story:

A huge 1L core class with two hundred or so students, at a large law school, taking their final exam. The professor finally calls “time”, the students file up to the front to deposit their exam “blue books” on his desk. Except for one student, who just keeps working away at his. “Time!”, the professor calls again… the student keeps working. Several more minutes pass, the student walks up to drop off his blue book. “Young man, you can forget it,” the professor says. “Time was called several minutes ago. You disregarded it. You fail the exam.”

The student haughtily regards the prof. “You’re making a big mistake. Don’t you know who I am? DON’T YOU KNOW WHO I AM?”

“No, as a matter of fact, I don’t”, the prof replies.

“Good!” says the student, as he sticks his blue book somewhere deep in the pile of exams, and runs from the room.
