Also let’s just say there are some childhood issues that were disclosed.

I submitted my application in December 2020. I received an email from 3rd Dept in January 2021 stating I passed C&F. I was sworn in February 2021. However, I did not have anything to report in my past for C&F. I was also a transfer applicant.

So since it took me almost 2-3 months, not sure how much longer it would be for a background check, etc.

Also, when I was applying, I was told that applicants did not have to travel for an interview and there would only be an interview (remote) if there was an issue. I am not sure if that has since changed.

Hope this helps a bit!

I took adderall while I was studying for the bar and it really helped.

I definitely have trouble focusing in general and have always been pretty dozey/aloof but have somehow gotten by and am now a third year associate who is doing okay without it. Do you think getting Aderall could help even though I’m doing fine? Maybe I’ll go from good associate to great
