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

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

At LSU, I think they would get two extra hours on a 4 hour exam.

I'd love to file a motion locally asking for an extension of time because I'm upset by the Garner and Brown grand jury decisions.
They would laugh me out of town.
