Kim Kardashian has spent six years and thousands of dollars chasing a law degree… but she still can’t pass the California Bar Exam.
Now, Kardashian said she is giving up the dream… at least temporarily.
The 45-year-old reality star billionaire has decided not to sit for the California Bar Exam in 2026 after failing the test last summer.
The news comes less than a year after Kardashian publicly said she failed the Bar Exam… but was “all in” until she passed.
“Well… I’m not a lawyer yet, I just play a very well-dressed one on TV,” she wrote. “Six years into this law journey, and I’m still all in until I pass the bar. No shortcuts, no giving up — just more studying and even more determination.”
Her own words from a recent episode of her reality show, The Kardashians, shows her breaking down while studying on camera.
“I’m absolutely gonna cry cause it’s f**king exhausting,” Kardashian said. “I really want it, and if I don’t pass, I don’t think I would take it again. I wouldn’t have the time for a few years, and then I’m older, and then my brain capacity is different.”
The California Bar Exam is one of the most difficult professional licensing tests in the country. Kardashian chose forgo law school entirely and completed a four-year California Law Office Study Program apprenticeship instead. Even that first hurdle, the so-called “baby bar,” took her four attempts before she finally passed in 2021.
She also admitted to using A.I to study for the bar exam, even though she said the results were “not always reliable.”
Kardashian gained famed after her late father, Robert Kardashian famously joined the defense “Dream Team” that defended O.J. Simpson in his 1995 murder trial.
But in this case, the apple fell too far from the tree.
