Criticisms of California Bar/Bar Exam

Post by mcmand » Tue Nov 21, 2017 1:04 pm

I didn't want to derail the July 2017/Feb 2017 threads with this while people prepare for the bar or discuss results, so here we go.

Inspired by this post about CalBar's massaging of statistics to make it look like the pass rate went up when it didn't: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... #p10217772

What other media outlets have covered the results besides ATL and ABA Journal? Only ATL has recognized the discrepancy in the scoring.
