I apologize for my dumbness in advance.

I'll be starting my last year of law school.  I'm not going to a school where there's much of a chance of being recruited.

I'm wondering when is the appropriate time to start sending out resumes/cover letters ---

Before graduation?
After graduation and before the July 2010 bar exam?
After the bar exam?
Or after the results of the bar exam come back?


Thanks.
