The employment law exam was 55 questions – 54 multiple choice and 1 essay question.
I knew to worry two days ago when I read the sample multiple choice question for the exam:
In State v. Hennepin County, the majority opinion declined to address the BFOQ issue raised by Justice Coyne’s dissenting opinion because:
- Tervo was not otherwise qualified for the detention deputy position
- Tervo was not a disabled individual
- the County’s uncorrected visual requirement was appropriately job related
- lots of people wear glasses
- Tervo’s visual deficit could not be reasonably accommodated
The multiple choice questions were nitpicky. That’s the only polite description. It was worse than the tax exam. It felt like they paid someone to stand inside the exam room and deliver a nice, firm, back-handed bitchslap to us while screaming, “You thought this class was easy huh?! WRONG!”
Anyhoot, another one down… now on to Real Estate law…

I can tell I am getting really edgy because I wanted to yell, “what else would I have five minutes left to finish? What do you think I’ve been doing in here for the last 3 hours?” It’s good I’m almost done!

Half of the room looked up at the clock like, “Wait, wtf?”
