In my case it's one of those with extra high requirements but average education at best.
In those harder examples in the exam you get 3 "questions" and each "question" is a single chapter out of, let's say, 30 chapters. And you're supposed to write everything possible on the topic. Sounds good and allowing to focus on anything you know and get persuasive trying to sell yourself as well as you can, ay? I thought so, but it turned out it basically works like this: you write 90% of the stuff there was in the books, lectures and additional places, and you get 2 points out of 4 because "I really wanted you to add that one word when talking about [1 of at least 10 elements of the topic] there was in that one book, I just don't feel that without that one word, it's really good one". Literally lol.
However, my uni sucks in that regard lmao. It's 3rd/4th in the country in terms of quality of education (which is pretty low considering the size of Poland and the standards here) and from what I gather, it has the most fugged up exam styles.
It will definitely not say you anything lol but it's the "UAM" from Poznań/Poznan/Posen.
I guess the harder part, at least in America, is actually passing the bar; lots of people from sh*tty schools fail it in huge numbers.
It's also funny to imagine you writing in serious prose.
Same here, you get 2/4 points because of this nitpicking and bam, you failed the exam.
And as far as any serious writing goes, I run a roleplaying community since 2008 and since these 8 years we've done so much shit I wrote a book that touches 10% of the RP at best, too bad it's in Polish obviously
And as far as law goes I've been also working in law since I turned 16 so it's no different for me than writing analysis on Malgus > Yoda 🙂
