Entirely depends. If you just want one and don’t want to think about maximizing each category out with multiple card set ups, then the Venture X is probably the play.

1Y here that started at an AM200 5 wks ago. Dream job, dream market. Issue is: CA Bar results drop Friday and I’m positive that I failed.

Now that I landed this job, I’m scared of (1) getting fired, (2) tarnishing my reputation, and/or (3) studying to retake in Feb (if permitted) while billing 1900+. Any thoughts or advice?
