目前正在準備加州的律師考試(7/24, 7/25, 7/26)。

The California Bar Exam is one of the hardest in the nation. California has an exclusionary bar, which means that rather than merely trying to screen out people who are incompetent, the exam is used to regulate the number of lawyers in the state. Other states have shorter and easier bar exams, because they don't have the large number of attorneys that California has.

After the results are released for each bar exam, the media reports that around 50 percent of applicants passed. While this is technically true, it does not accurately reflect the statistics. In 2003, the State Bar did a study that determined the break-down of eventual pass rates, over three attempts: 90 percent of graduates of ABA-approved law schools eventually pass, compared to 68 percent who attend California accredited schools and 58 percent for graduates of unaccredited schools.

The overall pass rates for California are lower than other states largely because unlike most states, California allows graduates of unaccredited law schools to take the bar exam (there are over sixty law schools in California alone, only 19 of which are ABA-accredited).
