Kim Kardashian has cleared a key hurdle in her unconventional quest to become an attorney.
The reality television star and entrepreneur said Monday on Twitter that she passed California s First-Year Law Students’ Examination—a daylong test required of aspiring lawyers in the state who are not taking the traditional path of attending an accredited law school.

“OMFGGGG I PASSED THE BABY BAR EXAM!!!!” she wrote to her 70.7 million followers, posting photos of herself posing in a bright blue jumpsuit. “For anyone who doesn’t know my law school journey, know this wasn’t easy or handed to me.”
Passing the test—better known as the baby bar—means Kardashian can continue her legal studies and will be able to take the full bar exam. She said in 2019 that she was studying to become a lawyer through what is known as the Law Office Study Program, in which would-be attorneys train under the supervision of an experienced lawyer or judge.
California is among the handful of states that has such a program and is the only one with a baby bar.
Pass rate information was not yet available for the Oct. 26 exam that Kardashian took, but only 21% of those who took the exam in June passed–less than half the rate for the state s most recent regular bar exam.
The State Bar of California on Monday said baby bar results are confidential and it could not confirm Kardashian passed.
