When Will February 2017 New York Bar Exam Results be Released?
Note that the New York State Board of Law Examiners seems to like releasing results on Tuesday through Friday most of the time (when releasing July results, they seem to like Wednesdays and Fridays, and when releasing February results, they seem to like Tuesday and Thursday, as you can see below.) Like many state boards, they tend to avoid releasing results on Mondays.

I Think I Failed! Can I Reserve a Spot for Tutoring?
Yes. The best deal that we offer for your money is our highly regarded, small group Uniform bar exam course. It also fills up the very quickly as we have very limited spots. So we highly recommend early application or reservation. It is tailored to exactly what is tested on the Uniform Bar exam. Note: You are not required to use the spot if you temporarily reserve the spot. It will merely be held for you.
You should also check out our myriad additional resources, including our MEE one-sheets (for sale in our online store), a New York Bar Exam seminar (which covered a lot of what was tested on the February 2017 bar exam!) and our New York MEE course. We limit the number of students for private tutoring and that can attend our seminar and course.
We also have top-notch UBE tutors (who have passed the New York bar exam!) and have helped several students pass the UBE. Our spots fill up quickly so we truly recommend early application so that we can reserve your spot if need be! To read more about our New York Bar Exam tutoring click here.
*Note, just because you reserve a spot (as your Plan B!) does not mean you will “jinx yourself!” In fact, most of our students who reserve a spot for private tutoring or our New York Bar Exam seminar end up not needing it (even though they are convinced they failed!). Why is this? It is because feelings do not correlate with results! This is is why — even if you are absolutely convinced you failed — you may have indeed passed! Please see this post about how to deal with worrying about bar exam results before they are released! You are also welcome to call us (929-260-4971) or email us if you find you cannot stop worrying!
Wondering what to do while you wait for February 2017 New York Bar Exam Results?
We frequently recommend that people come up with a “Plan A” and a “Plan B” while they are waiting for results. The Plan A is what you will do if you pass (e.g. apply for jobs, update your linkedin…). And Plan B is what you will do if you fail. If you want help coming up with your plan B, read this post on what to do if you fail the New York bar exam.
While you wait for your February 2017 New York bar exam results, we recommend that you read these two articles: A Note to those who Pass the Bar Exam and A Note to Those who Fail the Bar Exam. They are both good to read prior to getting results. (Whether you pass and friend fails or vice versa, you will be more prepared to deal with it — or to be a good friend to your friends that fail. And you will be in the right mindset!).
