In a recent development concerning the integrity of California’s bar examinations, fourteen deans from law schools across the state, along with a key state lawmaker, have voiced significant concerns. This follows the revelation that a portion of the February 2025 bar exam questions were crafted using artificial intelligence by ACS Ventures, the psychometric vendor involved. In response, these deans have urged the state Supreme Court to reinstate the use of the National Conference of Bar Examiners’ (NCBE) multiple choice questions for the upcoming July exam. In a letter addressed to the court, the deans questioned the exam’s fairness and substantive validity due to the AI involvement.
Further details on this development can be found in the original article published by The Recorder.
