Earlier this week, it was disclosed that two candidates who sat for the California Bar exam in July 2023 had been unintentionally administered the incorrect exam. The incident was announced by the State Bar and occurred at the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center in Sacramento. This information was initially reported by Law.com.
Specifically, the two candidates were given two essay questions and a performance test derived from the February 2023 exam rather than the July exam set. It remains uncertain at this time what consequences this mishap may lead to and how it will affect the aforementioned examinees.
