California State Bar Proposes Score Adjustment to Boost February Bar Exam Pass Rate to Historic Levels

The California State Bar has submitted a request to the California Supreme Court seeking approval to impute scores for particular individuals who failed the February 2025 bar exam. This move could result in approximately 79 additional candidates passing the exam, pushing the pass rate to a significant high not seen in 74 years. The proposal involves assigning statistically derived scores to the performance tests of candidates who encountered difficulties in the exam.
