Even if these kids are using it as an excuse to delay finals, they are doing it at the expense of their reputation. Pretty dumb, imo.
It's like the people who need extra time on exams for pussy reasons. Good look finding a job at a law firm that will let you turn in a motion late because you have ADD, or you were 'stressed,' etc

It's pretty well known that final exams and grades for that matter are nearly irrelevant in the ivy league law schools.

THIS. Every single bit of this. I cannot think of a single excuse as to why a student would need extra time on a law school exam that would not also come up in practice and hinder them in some way. If you cannot read an exam and take it in 4 hours just like everyone else then maybe law is not the field for you.
