Thanks everyone, it's a giant relief, and I'm very thankful to have it behind me.
I'll try my best to live up to all the lawyer jokes.

I don't know if anyone here cares, but I found out today I passed the PA bar. I'm of course very happy, but I'm curious as to how much I passed by, and whether the exam was really as hard as I had thought (it seems like almost everyone I knew from school passed).

First-timer success rate is generally higher than the overall success rate so that would partly explain why everyone you know would have passed.
I remember the pass rate on the one I took and passed (MD-July '99) was one of the lower MD pass rates I've seen (65%), so either it was a harder exam or a dumber pool of test-takers.

Congratulations btw...well done.
The hardest exam that I've ever heard of as far as passing rates is the CA exam in India. It has a passing rate of approx 1-2%.

I say that just because when I lived and worked in KOP, for training people I worked with had to go there.
Congrats to both of you!
