She didn't even finish high school. She was reading the law.

Yes she did. She went to a prestigious all girls prep school and graduated.

Who the hell cares. I’m over 40, working with kids and not going through a divorce. The idea of doing this is beyond anything I can comprehend at this moment. I say more power to her if she wants to try. It doesn’t affect me.

This is why I prefer off-road cycling. Just too many texting / distracted SUV drivers to even think of road-cycling.

Excuse me, but what the hell is the "baby bar"? I've been a lawyer for 25 years and I've never heard of it.

It’s a CA thing for people not going to accredited law schools.

She and her husband are prison reform activists.

I believe she’s got two more tries.

Her work is a lot of different than your work. Her work involves sitting around while others out on her makeup, pick her clothes and take photos of her. And she doesn’t have to take care of her kids. Her nannies do.

+1. I mean, I genuinely applaud her for giving it a try. But let’s not pretend she’s some sort of super mom who should inspire awe. She has tons of nannies, housekeepers, business advisers to manage her business and family lives. Of course she has time to study if she wants it.

And based on her score she did study just not as much as she needed to to pass.

I failed the bar with one kid, more than enough childcare help, and not divorcing.

Makes sense she would fail. I went back to college in my 40s. Just got my master's. It is so much work, I did a research thesis. People that are doing the Ph.D. program are overworked, overstressed and barely have time to shower. I mean, I had no time to cook most night. I know she has all the help she needs, but she seems very busy. For me, it meant basically having no life outside of kids, work, and studying and it was nuts for people with no kids or house to keep, or work!
If I got this right, she doesn't have a college degree? How on earth would she find the time to study that much, and she has a career, kids, no education after HS to even know what proper sitting down to study looks like?

No clue how anyone can do well without actually going to law school.

I went to law school right after college and passed the bar. I would never attempt to sit for another bar in my 40s. I’m amazed when my friends who are my age have moved and studied for another bar. I don’t know anyone who attempted the CA bar in their 40s or without going to an accredited school.

She didn’t do too bad considering the CA bar exam is the hardest in the nation.

She got like a 474 and it’s a 520 to pass? She did that while managing multiple businesses, four kids during a pandemic, and a divorce from a husband going through a mental breakdown.

It’s not the hardest exam. CA just has lots of people from unaccredited, and/or crappy law schools who take the exam. So it has a high failure rate.

The baby bar is challenging because it tests people on all the legal knowledge of the first year of law school, but without a formal education. That’s tough because it’s entirely up to the individual to structure their learning and synthesize all of it at once for a single exam. Very different than actual law school, where there is a lot more structure and support and your knowledge is tested on discrete subjects on separate tests over the course of the year. Kim’s track is definitely the harder way to gain legal knowledge.

I mean, I’m not going to lose sleep over this. She’s fine, and things will work out for her whether she retakes it or quits. The stakes are very low. I failed the California bar the first time I took it and I survived that with far fewer resources. But what she’s doing is objectively hard and I do think it’s admirable that she’s obviously working really hard at it. I feel for her.

I don’t think her endeavors rise to the level of being called admirable. Her advocacy on behalf of the wrongfully convicted or persons deserving of clemency, sure - that’s admirable. But it isn’t as if she’s actually going to practice law and immerse herself in the hard slog of post conviction legal advocacy - she wanted the bar admission for the ego trip of it, and bragging rights. So no, I don’t think that’s admirable - it’s just vanity.

She should stick to being famous for her shallowness and using her voice to help out the lawyers in the slog to get good results for some convicts who deserve it. Or, she should really commit to getting an education the old fashioned way and a law degree and bar admission the same way. But that’s too much work and too boring.

I did at 45. I swore I would never do it again after passing the first time, but circumstances dictated.... You know what you do? Youtube that $h!t. Law professors everywhere are uploading their review classes to youtube, and I am not kidding when I say I YouTubed my way through my second bar exam. Passed working full time with a kid.
