OK, so it's that time of year! Semi-ridiculous question: What's a girl supposed to wear to take the bar exam? I've heard that years ago, candidates were required to wear suits for all days of the exam. I know this is not the case anymore, but is it appropriate to show up in sweats and no make-up? Or is it better to keep those sentiments on the inside and at least LOOK like you've pulled yourself together? Any personal experiences/ tips?

I'm sitting for Delaware's Bar in a little over a week and plan on wearing my favorite comfy velour sweatpants and then layers up top (probably a T-shirt & light hoodie). I would worry, however, about what you are and are not allowed to bring into the exam room. Some states are really strict here and seeming necessaries, like meds, water bottles, etc., may be relegated to an unmonitored hallway during the exam. 97 weeks ago
