After months of spending time away from her kids to study for the difficult exam, Kim Kardashian, who is training to become a lawyer like her late dad, failed to get a passing grade on the baby bar exam.
Kim made it known on a preview of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians”. Though she failed the exam months ago, it remained a secret, until she opened up in a preview of her family’s reality show.
Kim said, “If you are doing law school the way I’m doing it, it is a 4-year program instead of your typical 3-year program, and after year 1, you have to take the baby bar. This was actually harder, I hear, than the official bar.”
Kim scored 474 on the exam but the cut-off mark is 560.
Kim’s mentor in taking the exam, attorney Jessica Jackson, said, “That is extremely close on a test that most people are not taking in the middle of a pandemic.”
“I’m a failure,” she said sadly. “The fact that I spent so much time away from my kids…I can’t do it again. I don’t have time.”
Of course, her sisters Kourtney and Khloé were there to support her and cheer her on, telling her that their late father Robert Kardashian would be proud of Kim for following in his footsteps, but they were also concerned about her next move. Should she retake the test again at the earliest opportunity or step back and study some so she can try again months down the line? She had a lot to think about; in addition to raising four kids in the middle of a pandemic, Kim was dealing with marital issues and planning what would turn out to be a controversial 40th birthday trip.
