There are future GAs sitting for the Oklahoma Bar Exam today & tomorrow. Some are taking it for the first time, hoping against hope that they never have to take it again. Others are having to overcome the confidence hurdle that was placed ahead of them, as they ARE taking it again.

Y’all please think happy thoughts for all of these gals today. I took it – a decade ago, today – and I still remember being terrified that the one test related to law school that I’d studied for….more than all prior law school exam studying combined….I would fail. I mean, some folks always do – why not me? I know, I might have a bit of a confidence issue…..

ANYWAY, my sister had these pencils made up for me as I studied, and practiced for the exam. I even had a few left/unused before the exam, that I sharpened up and handed out before the test started. Not only did I pass – but a gentleman who will remain unnamed, who’d taken and failed the exam no fewer than four times – also passed.

So, there must be SOMETHING special in these pencils, right? So, I offer this pencil, symbolically, to all the future GAs – trying to mind over matter recall the massive volume of information which can be genuinely so overwhelming that it is scary and can be undermining.

Y’ALL WILL DO IT.
