It’s factor these potential legal professionals are going right into a profitable occupation.

The grub on the Javits Middle for the upcoming two-day state bar examination comes at mind-boggling costs, with kosher meals costing greater than $50.

The vast majority of the boxed meals, which embody a sandwich, pasta salad, chips, a cookie and a bottle of water, will value $33.

The kosher turkey sandwich and kosher rooster wrap will set the would-be attorneys again a whopping $53 dollars. 

With tax, that’s $115.41 for each days of the examination.

Academics and college students say the prices of the deli subs from the Javits Middle’s catering group, Cultivated, are pushing it.

“The kosher choices are $20 greater than the opposite already-absurdly priced meals,” Sean Silverman, a bar examination and LSAT tutor, instructed The Submit. “Fifty-three bucks for a sandwich? It’s laughably costly.”

Some sandwiches retail for as a lot as $33 – with kosher choices costing as much as $20 extra.

Check takers have restricted choices. They will’t carry backpacks into the examination room and are allowed solely a beverage and quiet snack, that are unwrapped and in a transparent meals bag.
