How about:
11. You got married three days before the cram course began, or
12. You started a new job one week into the cram course.
I did both. Thus, I had the morning for bar review, the afternoon at work and the evening with my (then) new wife.
I estimate that I actually studied 30 seconds, give or take a minute.
By some dumb luck, I passed. Of course, that was 1973 and things may be different now.
