Kim Kardashian is determined to become a lawyer at any cost. Fashion mogul, reality TV star, and actress Kim Kardashian has shared her passion for prison reform and is following in the footsteps of her late father, Robert Kardashian Sr., trying to become a lawyer. But the path has not been easy. In November 2025, Kim shared that she did not pass the California State Bar exam, which surprised some fans because they thought she had already taken the test.
«Well… I’m not a lawyer yet, I just play one on TV», - Kim wrote on her Instagram Stories. «Six years into this legal journey, and I’m still determined to pass the exam. No shortcuts, no giving up — just more studying and even more determination».
Kim promised to overcome the setback and continue, adding in her message: «Thank you to everyone who has supported and inspired me on this journey so far. Failure is not defeat, it’s fuel. I was so close to passing the exam, and that only motivated me even more. Let’s go!»
So, how many times has Kim taken — and failed — the bar exam? Find out below about Kim’s legal education, from her background to how many times she has already taken the exam.
Kim passed the bar exam only once. Some fans were confused because they thought she had taken it before, but Kim had only taken the «baby» exam earlier.
In 2021, Kim announced on X (formerly known as Twitter) that she passed the baby exam on her fourth attempt.
«OMG, I PASSED THE BABY BAR!!!» she wrote at the time. «Looking in the mirror, I am truly proud of the woman looking back at me today… For those who don’t know my journey in law school, know that it was not easy and not handed to me».
The baby exam — or the exam for first-year law students at unaccredited schools in California. It is not the official California State Bar exam.
Similar to the official bar exam, the baby exam consists of multiple-choice questions and four essays. It is a one-day test.
On the other hand, the California State Bar exam is a two-day test held every February and July, consisting of 200 multiple-choice questions, five one-hour essays, and one 90-minute performance test question.
After six years, Kim Kardashian completed her legal education program. She shared a moment from her graduation ceremony on her Instagram Stories.
Kim failed the bar exam only once. She took the test in July 2025 and announced the results in November. She has another chance in February 2026. There are no limits in California on the number of attempts to pass the exam.
To pass the California State Bar exam, a minimum of 1390 points is required, according to their website.
No, Kim did not go through the typical legal education. In 2018, she interned at a law firm in San Francisco, which is an alternative to the traditional university path in California. In May 2025, she completed her legal education program.
No, Kim does not have a bachelor’s degree. She briefly attended Pierce College in Los Angeles, according to various sources
